Throughout the check-in process, everything was extremely smooth and Disa was able to help us check in to the property even when she was out. There was a small mistake from my end as I had booked the wrong room type but this was also settled very easily with no stress in a friendly and agreeable way. The property itself is wonderful and very recently renovated and very tidy, it’s the perfect door into the real Rekajavik and you get a very warm and friendly hug like being at home, which is really what you want. Disa made the effort to even take us out to a concert to truly experience Icelandic culture. That was special and unique. Disa goes above and beyond to make sure guests are comfortable and happy. So much so that when we returned to the capital we had booked a different property which was really below any reasonable standards I connected Disa straight away and was able to experience this wonderful property for a second time. Excellent property, excellent owner, excellent location.

Spent one night at this property. We showed up late in the night, but they had an easy self-check in process. Room was simple and had everything we needed. Bed was comfy and warm. Location was great for getting to see Reykjavik the next morning, starting with Hallgrimskirkja. No complaints!

The room was big enough. Have a sofa and was clean. It is nice located close to the church and main Reykjavik restaurants. Beds were comfy enough. The breakfast was simple but had a bit of everything. Except fruits.

I loved staying here rather than in a sterile hotel. The location was perfect....I walked everywhere and lots of shops and restaurants on the doorstep. Instructions very clear and I liked that there were no staff. Warm and a comfy bed with great kitchen facilities.

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!
