Reasonable accomdation
Accommodation location was really central and close to bus stop for various tours and airport transfers. The two bedrooms were comfortable with plenty of duvets, etc. The apartment was nice and warm, with no need to try and control. Negatives were a few - there was no hot water to the bathroom sink - although lots to the kitchen and shower. The bathroom sink was also very slow to clear water due to blockage. The majority of mugs and plates had chips out of them.

Check-in was poor. We arrived during office hours. No welcome or anything, just refer to the email you were sent. The space was great although when we separated the King bed into 2 singles and was not clean behind or in the corners. Kitchen not adequately equipped. No oven mitts, pot lids missing, dull knives, one hard block of ice in ice maker, obviously not cleaned out. Only received extra toilet tissue after request more. The existing roll was the only one there, for 4 women for 6 night stay. Although the welcome email said light cleaning would the done every 2nd day starting after the second night, it was NEVER done, Towels were never replaced. Shower almost overflowed. Cut shower short and it took more than an hour to drain. We called the emergency number and there was no answer. The other number provided was out of service. They seemed to have come in while we were out but issue was not resolved. We could only shower one person per morning or evening, and it had to be quick or would have overflowed. Really too bad about the service because we loved the location. Would not recommend.

Great central spot!
Impressively centrally located apartment in downtown city centre. Easy to find and parking at the back of the property. Easy quick check in (early too) Good views from the roof lights (we were in appt 5) Nice and spacious with lots of specified amenities. Watch your head on the pitched roof, clattered mine a few times 😂 A little tired around the edges, needs a coat of paint, doors out of alignment, missing handles etc (all very minor though) No shower, only a bath in this one too which was a slight pain. However, for the price the location, size and views were great and i would stay there again for the location alone.

Not what I was expecting
The pictures are not the apartment at all. We were expecting two twin beds and a sofa bed. Instead we got a double bed and a small couch. The shower has spider webs as well.

Good location and nice staff
The location is very close to the city centre, 5 mins walk to Harpa and the Church, and there is a big supermarket behind the apartment. The staff in the office are so nice and give helping hands in every ways. The flat is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped, so you can prepare your meal easily. The accommodation is close to bus no. 2, which is easily picked up by the coach when you join local tour or going to the airport. I must be back to this accommodation when I come to Reyjkavik again.

Nice cozy apartment in a very convenient location with on site parking. The fold out couch was residential and probably won’t stand up to much use. Otherwise, the fixtures and bedding were fine. Would definitely recommend.
