Wonderfully warm welcome, lovely chat. Some really lovely thoughtful touches here - a cake in the kitchen, smoothies for guests... crispy clean bedroom and lots of information provided of good local spots/cafes etc. Great location for town, church and free parking!

Cosy guesthouse with a great location. Hallgrimmskyrkja and everything Reykjavik has to offer is right outside. I really liked our room that was on the top floor. Good value for the money. Good atmosphere and a good breakfast. Would really consider going back if I'm lucky to visit Reykjavik again.

Everything! The location is great, it's near the highway and also near the city center. The room is clean, spacious and very warm. I felt very cosy. The bed is comfy and the bathroom is clean too. There is also kitchen to cook anything with utensils available. The parking is free on the streets too.

The guesthouse is very strategically close both to the city centre and the bus terminal (from which the buses to the airport depart directly, with no need to book for the drop off/ pick up service), but at the same is in a quiet and very green residential area. The room is small (but it was clear from the pictures posted, so no surprises there) but very clean and comfortable. Thorey was a great host and ready to help when I called her before arriving, and left very specific instructions for us regarding our stay. Lovely dog too!

Very good price for a single room in Reykjavik, was even cheaper than dorm-beds in some hostels! Good location, only a few minutes walk to city center. Supermarket next door, still the street itself is rather quiet. Very clean and also has basic equipment for cooking.
