It's very cozy in there which we liked. Good location. Kind communication. We had a few issues during our stay - door code didn't work on arrival - bad toilet smell on second day - no chopping board, good knife - original internet didn't work (but they had a back up) - you had to fill out a form after booking which was a bit of a cuffufle. - The location of the storage room was unclear so we put it downstairs which then wasn't the right place and we needed a code to get back in. They had a lot of systems in place, but it seemed to not really flow. But they were quick to communicate and kind.

Apartment location was amazing. Walking up to the 4th floor was a blessing and a curse. Needed the workout after amazing dinners out. Bathroom was extremely cramped and only real downside.

The management team at Iðunn was communicative and easy to work with and helped immediately when there was a slight check in issue. The flat is in a perfect location in the heart of Reykjavik (walking distance to most everything). The place was lovely inside and met all our needs. A couple things to be aware of = The entrance seems sketchy, but ignore the trash / graffiti - its great inside. There are 4 flights of stairs, no elevator. This was no problem for us, but be aware. Yes, the water does smell and taste of sulfer. This is normal for Iceland. :-). And finally, the crowds are a bit boisterous on the weekends. If you are a light sleeper and in bed by 8 PM kind of person... We loved out stay. I highly recommend this team and flat.

Rental unit was good. Our unit had access from the back and behind a restaurant. We enjoyed our stay and we mostly were gone throughout the day.

The apartment offers great views, charming atmosphere and comfortable furnishings. As a warning to anyone with mobility issues, it is a four story walk-up. My one complaint was the check-in process and descriptions of parking options. When we arrived, we did receive a door code and very general description. However, no one told us that our unit had a separate entrance on the backside of the building. There is a sign, but it's far from immediately noticeable, especially when one is tired from travel and jet-lagged. The whole process could have been spelled out in an email or message, well before our arrival. As it stood, all we had was the address and door code, no step by step help to get us in quickly and easily. The managers should think about the average stressed and tired traveler, arriving with no clue about the property e.g.; "upon arrival, go around the corner of the property, past the Turkish restaurant, and turn into the parking space, next to the ice cream shop. There you'll find the door for your specific unit and enter the code listed below." Also, parking instructions were very vague. I was left with questions like: "Can I park here all day and pay once, or do I have to refill a meter, several times a day? What are these three parking zones; what do they mean? Is there a place we can just park and forget our car, until we are ready to leave the city?"

My family enjoyed a wonderful stay at this property. Everything was seamless- checkin process super easy, property is beautiful and clean, and location couldn’t be better. Owners very communicative if any questions come up. We look forward to staying here again!!

Amazing location right downtown Reykjavík! Beds were comfy and the style of the place was cute. Seriously loved being in the heart of everything. The noise was never bad but we ran a sound machine. Warning though there are a lot of stairs (no elevators) but didn’t bother our group. I would give our stay a 4.5 and the only reason not a 5 is because of the bathroom. Poor drainage and circulation/venting!! Always seemed wet/not as clean because of it no matter what we did. Other than that our experience was great!!

Great location. Unit is on very top floor with many flights of stairs. Consider this if you have anyone elderly in your group. Very simple place, one pot, one pan, 4 forks and two knives. No sharp knives. Code on door did not work when we arrived, had to email manager and wait in restaurant down stairs for response. Restaurant owner let us in the complex via the back door. This is not pleasant after traveling over seas with two small children and arriving early in the morning just to wait till 4:00 to finally check in and could not access the unit. The beds were very comfortable. Again, the location was great in the heart of down down Reykjavík.
