Location was great. Walkable to a lot of great restaurants and shopping in Reykjavík. Stayed here my last night as a budget place to stay, and felt very comfortable. No complaints, great as a solo traveler

It’s an older property, and therefore a little less soundproofed than well-built modern places, but that doesn’t detract from the comfort. It’s clean, the beds are incredibly comfortable, and we weren’t left wanting for anything. The centre of the eating and shopping area is a short and pleasant walk away.

We enjoyed this Guesthouse immensely! It was close to town, making the city walkable, near bus stops to catch Hop-on-and-off Bus, or walk to the Harbor. It was clean, easy to find, and very comfortable! Shared bathrooms, but very clean too. We will use again!

i stayed here with my brother and my friend. the room and property was quiet and we felt safe the whole time. a shared washroom was just outside our room, which was very convenient. parking is on the street and when we arrived, there were no spots left. so we had to drive around quite a bit before we found a spot! overall and excellent stay and did the job: a safe place to rest before we continued on our way.
