Very nice and cozy appartement. Located in a basement, but did not feel like a basement with it's large windows. Excellent location close to the heart of Reykjavik and very easy to reach.
Strange stuffy smell in the hallway, but not brothersome. Weird placement of light switches in the rooms. Both not a problem, really nitpicking.

Really pleasant and perfect location to access central Reykjavik.
Great bed and a great nights sleep on the main bed, after travelling for the past few months.
There was an issue with the key getting in and then getting stuck inside the house unable to leave as the lock is faulty.
The water temperature was too cool, I’m sure this can be adjusted.

Comfortable beds, bathroom with modern equipments
There is no agency or owner to greet you although the iwner lives upstairs, this is a basement flat which I love finding them in London, very complicated induction stove in the kitchen, thus has never occured before as there was always someone to explain everything....We got instructions towards the end of where to store the garbage, this after 10 fully days? Cuttkery, cups, glasses...too minimalustic, candles are there but no smashes, you are expected to buy everything yourself even ckeaning stuff to keep the place clean and neat by 4 adults friends a necessity, we have never had a place before with no vacuum cleaner or wash mob..Thes necessities are a must...Owner or agency who ever Björn is, proposed to have the cleaning team coming in but we only had 1 sets of keys, they have a very special electronic door, you plug the key in and give the code, take the key out and open the door....I can't imagine the trouble if the key gets missing
We haven't shot pictures of the flat and garden which needs serious attention, this was by far the only house with very high gras
For this renting lack of friendliness like every request is too much

This is one of the best accommodation experiences I have ever had, as an avid traveller that's no mean feat. A beautiful apartment very tastefully decorated in a fantastic location. I would highly recommend and I would definitely stay here again.
Nothing It was perfect!

We were surprised at the size of the rooms. Everything was neat and clean. Very calmng wonderful place.
Just know you can't park in front of the house between the hours of 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. without purchasing a ticket from a parking machine about 50 yards from house. Sign to do so is hidden in trees. Ticket cost 35 American dollars.
5.0
Charming and cozy flat that is a stone’s throw away from the famous church of Hallgrimur and a few blocks away from the city center. The area is a pretty quiet residential neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the city center
It is not mentioned that the flat is essentially in the basement of a house. There is barely any acoustic insulation which allows you to hear all the noise coming from above including footsteps and even talking. A very important thing to note is the smell emanating from the bathroom. It is a very strong smell not the faint of heart. The best way to describe it would be a mix of sewers, feces and urine radiating throughout the entire flat, making it very difficult to breathe indoors. All in all, the price is too expensive for the value of the flat.

Modern apartment. Close to centre but also on quiet street.
Nothing.

The apartment is in a fantastic location (short walk to city centre, coast, and very close to bus stations for airport/trips). Stylish and tastefully decorated, incredibly comfortable bed, particularly loved the bathroom with under floor heating and wet room style rainfall shower. The kitchen was well stocked with practical amenities (dishwasher, dishwasher tablets, tea towels, cleaning stuff, pots, pans, cutlery, crockery etc) and good quality towels were provided. Warm and cosy for an October holiday and unbeatable price for Reykjavik given the location and standard of the apartment. Our host was excellent too, gave us privacy (as we wanted when booking an apartment rather than a hotel) but was very responsive to messages when we had questions. We would 100% stay here again if returning to Reykjavik.
There was nothing we didn't like although some minor suggestions for improvement would be to have a brief information pack in the apartment to explain facilities (would just save the host answering some questions), provide some guide books for guests to use, and to provide a small amount of washing powder/tablets for washing clothes as it is quite expensive to buy especially when using for just one washload (we didn't have room in our luggage to take it back with us for use at home). One final suggestion would be to have a visitor book so guests could write some brief notes about their experiences both at the apartment and in Iceland - a lot of UK cottage rentals do this and we really like that as they often include hints and tips from people's experiences that aren't necessarily included in guide books or are easy to find on the internet.

Awesome location, incredible position. Really well clean.
5.0
The flat was lovely, very comfortable and very nicely decorated.
Our overall experience with the owner was BAD.
Considering the premium price we paid, we were expecting premium service.
What a disappointment.
When we arrived, there were dirty dishes in the drawer and the oven tray was filthy.
The electric hotplate was out of order. A single backup hotplate was available which is not convenient to cook a proper meal.
No tea towel, had to ask for one and owner’s reply was that he was going to put one in the flat. He also mentioned that there was a dishwasher, were we supposed to dry our dishes and surfaces with the dishwasher?
No heatglove.
No extra toilet paper roll. Had to ask for one.
No welcome/ instruction booklet
Convertible sofa not so comfortable.
Whenever I sent owner a message, his replies were very blunt. No hello, no apologies for inconvenience.
On our last night, there was noise (loud music and heavy footsteps in staircase) above the flat, in the owner's house at 10.30pm. As we were getting up at 5am to catch our flight, I sent him a message letting him know our need to rest and asked him to make sure sound level stayed decent. Owner's reply was that noise didn't come from his house (quite surprising, as there were no houses/buildings nearby), and that if I was sensitive to noise, I should use earplugs! How rude!
I do not recommend this owner.
Word to the owner: if you do not wish to be disturbed, just do not rent your place.

Very good location, luxurious and beautiful apartment.
We booked few days before arrival, the owner responded to our question after 3 days, on day od arrival, we were little nervous about that. Otherwise everything was excellent!
