Very secure entry. Three locked entries to access the apartment.
Parking was occasionally available. That could have been better organized.
Great option for families since there is two futons that two kids/small adults can sleep in living room while there is a king in the main bedroom. In a great area close to everything!
This location was excellent to walk to a corner market a block away, restaurants and nightlife. We didn’t cook but having the option would be great for a longer stay.
It was a very good area with lots groceries, your own parking place, restaurants and cultural areas and activities nearby! The country was awesome and we all hope to make it back again for another visit!
The property is very centrally located for walking about the down town area. It was clean and very livable with a kitchenette and a separate lounge area which was great as we were there for five days.
It is a bit noisy at night but what would you expect being in the center of the town.
Lots of restaurants near by, out favourite were the Thai restaurant just up the road and a great Icelandic restaurant a short five minute walk called Islenski Barinn. We ate at both of them a couple of time.
For those traveling for a while, there is a pay laundromat just a couple of minutes walk which was great and payment is by card which made things easy.
The only thing we didn’t like to start with is that the apartment is painted in dark colors but we got use to it.
Also you need to know that the reception is about a couple of hundred meters fro the apartment and they are 24 hour reception and they will keep your bags in a lock up if you need that service.
They also have a restaurant at the main reception for breakfast or dinner, although we did not take up that service.

The reception helped us with our luggages and is very nice. The messaging communication was excellent in prep for our check-in and transportation. Thank you.
Apartment was nice. Tight for 3 people. Check in is several blocks from apartment. Room was ready early, staff not personable. Apartment clean, well equipped kitchen, didn’t use only stayed 1 night. Room was quite far into building. Up a few stairs, down a hall, up a few more stairs, down the hall, etc, then up full flight and down the hall. Hard with luggage. Neighborhood was great! Bed comfortable. Would stay again.

Excellent location. Perfectly near everything including a bus stop for tours. Very spacious for our group. I would stay again. Only issues include many many stairs to get to our room as well as a leaking shower. Overall, I would recommend and stay there again.
We had a truly positive stay at Rey Apartments this past June. We were a group of 8 which included 3 kids. The property made great recommendations including having dinner at Seafood Grill which was phenomenal and Braud bakery for some of the best morning treats.
The property also arranged transportation to and from the airport.
Thank you to everyone! We hope to be back in Iceland soon!
