Helga and her partner were really nice and came to help us locate a couple of items (they live above the apartment.) The beds were comfortable and it was always warm and cozy with plenty of hot water. You can’t beat the location.However, there are a few things that I feel were not represented well in the listing that I would want others to be aware of before booking.There is no dryer. There is a washing machine so I assumed there would be a dryer. This may not seem important but we were a family of four who packed light believing we could frequently wash our clothing. Washing a small load of clothes and then hanging everything on a drying rack that took up half the living room and waiting 12 hours for it to dry (we visited in November) wasn’t ideal. The hot tub is in the front yard area and is not filled and heated unless requested ahead of time (which we didn’t know because there is no house manual and Helga didn’t get back to me in messages for a couple days) and they were also not available to fill it on Saturday and Sunday because they were out of town. So we never used the hot tub. The listing said there is an indoor pool but I wasn’t able to locate it and Helga never answered my question about it.There is no dishwasher as was stated in the listing.There is a very limited amount of towels/washcloths availableThe twin bedroom is in the back of house so to get to the rest of the house you have to walk through the main bedroom, which makes intimacy difficult. Lol.

Great location and very clean and comfortable apartment.

This apartment was the perfect size and location for our family of four. We enjoyed walking around the central part of Reykjavik and when we got a rental car for part of our stay we had no problem finding street parking.

The property is located within a short walking distance from most anything you would want to see or do in Old Reykjavic, and a short drive to everything else in the area. The property was very clean, and nicely decorated. The property was well furnished, for a group of 4 people, but could use some small microwave dishes. The hostess was very friendly, helpful, and a wonderful resource for anyone visiting Iceland Some minor points:1) There is no private parking at the property, but I suspect this is not unusual in central Reykjavik. Public parking on the street or a parking area in front of the property was always available and at a nominal cost. 2) Remember to bring eye shades for sleeping if you plan to visit during the Iceland summer, as it never gets dark outside, and it never gets completely dark inside the apartment. We were there for the summer solstice, and I am a light sleeper. Most people would not be bothered....no one else in our group was. 3) Also remember to bring your own towels if you plan to visit one of the many area thermal pools, or there will be a charge of $5-$6 at each location.We plan to return to Iceland as soon as possible and as often as possible. We had a wonderful time in this amazing country. We would definitely stay at this property again.
