This efficiency has everything one could need, in a neighborhood that is perfectly located for walking to shops and restaurants. Quiet neighborhood of foreign embassies, churches, hospital, and a pocket park. The owner’s communication was superb. With an added bonus of onsite parking.

It was very nice stay in Reykjavik

The room was more spacious than I had imagined, yet stylish and comfortable enough for a one-person stay.The location was also great, just a few minutes walk to the center of Reykjavík.The only thing that was a little confusing was the location of the key box, so if the owner has time, it might be a good idea to add that.

Wonderful Visit - Perfect Stay

It is a very charming and cozy studio apartment, perfect for an adult couple or single person visiting Reykjavik. It is central and even walking distance to many of the main points in downtown. The hosts were wonderful - and made it so easy to check in, stay, and check out again. I was great !

This was a a fabulous place and a perfect location. The apartment had everything needed for our stay and we were able to easily walk to restaurants and shops in Reykjavík.

Perfect spot for our needs!

Having a little studio like this was the perfect way for us to spread out (and dry out!) our things during our stay in Reykjavik, which served as our "home base" before moving on in our trip. Dedicated parking, great walkable spot, and attention to details that really made for a helpful and comfortable stay. Thank you!
