Everything was great! Smoothies, staff, kitchen, common areas and beds! One minor note to staff is the room could have a few hooks or a small table for guests to hang or place their items, otherwise truly amazing and homey - the staff truly care about their guests and it shows!

Style was neat, location above bar was good and bad... convenient but lots of slamming door noises at night. Overall, a fine experience but communication was difficult and code for door provided in email did not match. I could not get ahold of owners but cleaning crew was able to assist by calling with their cell phone which was great but also a lucky break. Management could stand to improve some things like a broken chair whose back had been glued on but which was no longer a load bearing chair. Communication certainly could use improvement, but the facility was basically as advertised, was clean and felt secure and was generally comfortable but could use some upgrades. We bought our own toiletries and had no idea what type of pod to put in coffee maker so those are two areas that could easily be improved while some of the upgrades like new pillows that would make this a better stay should also be considered.

I would definitely recommend a stay at this guest house to anyone. The owner is really lovely and her homemade breakfast is amazing. We had a fridge, oven, kettle and 2 cooking hobs in our apartment which allowed us to cook evening meals. The beds are very comfortable and the place is nicely designed and clean. The views are superb, too (with views of the sea, lake, birds, the mountains and Reykjavík). There is a good cafe/ restaurant and a Swimmingpool in walking distance. Supermarkets are a 5 Minute drive away. Reykjavík town centre can be easily reached by car in 20 minutes. This place would suit anyone’s requirements and especially people that love nature and don’t want to stay in a soulless city hotel. I would recommend hiring a car to get around, but there is a bus stop nearby. My partner and I stayed at the guest house for 6 nights and we will return there in the future!
