Clean rooms and facilities, some parts appear in a bad state, lawn chairs outside and on the patio were broken and dirty (from debris from trees among others). Breakfast was well rounded, tasty and of good quality.

Very nice place to stay. This is a Guesthouse so you have shared bathroom and showers. The main bathroom has heated floors, so nice on a cold day. The rooms do have a sink in them. The hosts are very nice and accommodating. They sell bag lunches and I saw something about a dinner. Continental breakfast is included.

Thorsteinn was a great host. The room was small by American standards but clean. The shared bath was clean and functional. Breakfast featured a wide variety of cereal, pancakes, meat, fruit and juices. And lastly, the espresso machine was tops.

The shared bathroom aspect is really the only “issue”, which is fine, just something of which to be aware. The room was nice, basic…curtains not black out but close enough, and the staff were very available and attentive during breakfast. Parking was easy, and even though they are strict on the 3:00pm checkin, it was ok to leave our car and walk downtown while we waited, so it all worked out fine.

Cheap, clean and simple

If you want a place to sleep while visiting Iceland this is good enough. The house from the outside looks a bit run down but is clean and good inside. Rooms are very simple with just beds and a hanger. Although clean and they serve a nice breakfast each morning. There is a shared bathroom on each floor. So If you want to visit Iceland without paying huge amount of money on a hotel you wont spend time in this is perfect. A clean bed to sleep in the nights and a breakfast to start the day. The guesthouse has a parking just outside which is a plus if you come by car. There is a 15 min walk to downtown Reykjavik.
