It is all about the location with this house as it is right in the heart of the main tourist street. It is behind another building, but when you walk out, you are right there in the center of everything in Reykjavik. The kitchen is well stocked and we were able to cook dinner without a problem. There is washer/dryer, but it is one machine that serves both functions so one load will take you about 3/4 hours. But it is a great feature and not everyone home we stayed at had it. The TV is an apple TV so we were able to watch Netflix one night and just relax. I initially made a mistake in the number of party when I made the reservation (4 people v. 5) so when I emailed her, she put an extra cot. I would, however, not recommend doing this. The upstairs has all the living spaces and the downstairs has two bedrooms (one with two twin beds) and another with a double bed. There is no room for another bed so she put the cot upstairs. The upstairs has some curtains, but half the windows are exposed so you are sleeping in broad daylight (if you go in the summer) and the cot was really uncomfortable. But if you are a party of 4 or less, you can't go wrong with this property.

Hidden gem in the heart of town

This little house is truly a little gem, just a stone cast away from many restaurants, shops, museums, and yet not noisy. The house is very well equipped for short and long term stays, and the manager very helpful in case of questions. I will definitely come back!

Reykjavík house

My My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Reykjavík apartment. It is perfectly located next to the main shopping street in Reykjavík but just far enough back off the street where it’s quiet mid block. We found the ground floor bedroom is very comfortable to sleep in the kitchen was perfectly stocked for what we needed which is great and Iceland because you do not want to go out and eat for every meal or you will be broke. Since I was turning 50 very close to the trip my wife and Anita conspired to have a cake in the refrigerator which Anita made for me which was wonderful we enjoyed it immensely! If we end up in Reykjavík again which I’m hoping we do we would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to all of our friends who are headed that way. We actually had a Rent-A-Car for a few days and we found street parking not to be a problem at all.

Terrific Location, Good value

We absolutely loved the location of this house - it is right on the main street, just behind the shops in a hidden alley. With a bakery only feet away and so many shops nearby, it truly doesn't get better for location. The house itself is very cute - the kitchen was well appointed (although no microwave, which surprised me but not a big deal) and the living area was comfortable. The beds were good and the blankets warm. It is a little cramped in the bedroom areas, but not too much. The only downside to this place is the shower, which really was a challenge to handle as others have said. The water pressure is very high and the curtains aren't quite up to the task, so showering was not enjoyable (I actually tried to avoid it). That being said, it really was a great value for the location and size and we would highly recommend staying here.

Truly a home away from home

This accommodation was very comfortable and well equipped...we thoroughly enjoyed the main floor living quarters in particular. Wonderful access to all kinds of restaurants and shops in the neighborhood. From our viewpoint as seniors, the only drawback was the tub/shower unit - a classic, deep, soaker tub that had a rather awkward shower arrangement, presenting some difficulties, particularly for anyone with flexibility/mobility issues. All in all, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it to others.

Great Place in an Awesome Location

We had a great stay! Family of four with two adult children. The coffee maker in the House is also amazing and the kitchen must be renovated. Our only note to future guests is that the shower is really difficult for taller people. 5'10" is ok, but 6'3" is too tall to stand in the bathtub for a shower. The location was so convenient and we loved the bakery next door. We had lunch one day and Breakfast the next day at Sandholt. We highly recommend this place and location and Anita was excellent to work with. We communicated seamlessly through VRBO messaging and she was quick to respond.

A hidden gem of a cottage in excellent location.

This small but well appointed cottage is literally in the heart of one of Reykjavik's nicest tourist corridors. It worked nicely for two couples traveling together. The full kitchen was well stocked and the cottage was very comfortable. Communication with the owner Anita was a breeze.

So much to love...

There is so much to love about this home. First is it's absolute perfect location. Tucked behind a gate right off Laugavegur, it's quiet and private with access to all the shopping, restaurants and bars Reykjavik has to offer. Grocery store and parking garage just a couple of blocks away. Tastefully decorated, very clean and fully equipped, it accommodated our party of four quite comfortably. Anita, the owner was extremely helpful, checking to see if our arrival was smooth, to see if we had any issues with anything, answered any questions we had, and was flexible on both check-in and check-out times. This made for a very pleasant and enjoyable stay. I would highly recommend this home and would go back again.

Perfect in Every Way!

This property was perfect for the (3) of us. Our check-in was smooth and Anita's communication with us before arrival was informing and she answered all our questions and provided great suggestions. We had no problem whatsoever finding the property and Anita met us shortly after we checked in. It was very easy! The location could not have been better! We could walk just about everywhere we wanted to go and parking our rental vehicle was no problem. This property is very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed! We highly recommend it! You'll not be sorry! THANK YOU SO MUCH Anita for such great hospitality! Joel, Lynn and Elizabeth

Gemütlich und zentral gelegenes Haus

Das Haus ist sehr gut gelegen und sehr schön eingerichtet. In der Nähe ist ein Bonus wo man das nötige kaufen kann, eine Bäckerei und diverse Restaurants. Anita ist sehr zuvorkommend und bleibt wäherend des Aufenthalts im Kontakt um wichtige Infos zum Wetter oder Reiseziele weiterzugeben. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Am Wochenende ist es ein bisschen schwerer einen Parkplatz zu finden aber man darf nicht zu schnell aufgeben. Wir würden gerne wieder kommen und können diese Unterkunft weiterempfehlen. Danke für die schöne Zeit.

Sehr angenehm und tolle Betreuung - Bestnote !

Die Wohnung ist sehr zentral in der Innenstadt gelegen, aber im Hinterhofbereich, sodass es auch noch sehr ruhig für eine derart gelegene Wohnung ist. Sie ist gut eingerichtet, tolle Küche (wichtig wegen der hohen Kosten des Essengehens, Faktor 2-3 im Vergleich zu Deutschland) und Wohnbereich im Erdgeschoss und pragmatische Schlafräume im Untergeschoss. Insgesamt sehr gemütlich. Wir waren als Familie zu viert für 10 Tage dort, es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Einziges Manko war die Dusche, die mit Vorhang nur schlecht zu schließen war. Dass das warme Wasser geothermischen Ursprung hat und daher etwas nach Schwefel riecht - das gehört zu Islandfeeling dazu. Ja, und dann ist Anita einfach eine unglaublich freundliche Gastgeberin. Schon vor dem Aufenthalt schickte sie gute Tipps zu Ankunft und Unternehmungsmöglichkeiten. Während unseres Aufenhaltes kommunizierten wir über WhatsApp und so könnten Fragen oder Tipps schnell ausgetauscht werden. Als einmal das Gas alle war, kam sie nach einer WhatsApp-Nachricht eine halbe Stunde später mit Ersatz zu uns. Auch hier: Bestnote ! Wir würden immer wieder diese Wohnung nehmen und können sie nur empfehlen. Auch in Hinblick auf Preis-Leistung ist die Wohnung angesichts des isländischen Preisniveaus echt kostengünstig!

Why they chose this property

Perfect location - an easy short walk from any destination in the city. It's on a main shopping street, full of shops, bars and restaurants but is tucked away and eliminates any issues from the noise. The interior is modern, clean, cozy and functional.
The bakery next door had a fantastic selection of pastries, sandwiches and breads and served a wonderful breakfast. The pickup spot for bus tours (bus stop 7) is about a 3 block walk.

What makes this property unique

The house located at main street in the center, to get into the house you walk into the alley and through white gate. House is isolated from any street noise and neighbors.
