Clean, fairly central location. Would have liked more flexibility on check-in time or ability to leave luggage. We were able to leave luggage only because other guests let us in. Confusion with other guesthouse with similar name meant a looong walk from bus stop. No lounge. Dining area simply a room with counter and 4 stools. Kitchen had stove top, microwave, kettle, a few dishes.

Excellent location and clean accomodations. Could certainly use additional toilets for shared accommodations and a less slippery shower.

Did not like that the bathroom wasn't cleaned regularly, we were there for 4 days, nothing was cleaned. Lack of towels, only one towel for 4 days. Pillows were terrible, mattress was okay. Need a mirror in the room so that you don't have to use the bathroom for a long period of time. Five rooms of guests using 1 bathroom, difficult to get in there. Didn't receive code for guesthouse until after we talked to the cleaning staff.

the room was almost fully occupied by a double bed; no chair, no table and one tiny window which opened. The room was extremely hot with no obvious place to turn off the heat. It was a very unpleasant stay.

Alojamiento cerca de Bus Terminal Reykjavik
Habitación pequeña, pero cómoda y limpia al igual que el baño. Cerca de Bus Terminal Reykjavik, que es a donde llegas/sales para el aeropuerto de Keflavik.

給房東的建議 一切很好 但關門很大聲 廚房的櫃一關也很大聲 建議房東可貼一些防撞貼 以免很嘈及很容易壞

Bâtiment situé à une sortie d’une autoroute. AUCUN stationnement en face ni débarcadère. Ceci a été un enjeu pour faire le « Check in » en mode autonome avec les valises. Pour le stationnement, il y a des places dans le quartier avoisinant mais faut-il qu’il y ait des espaces de disponible…on fini par en trouver en cherchant mais disons que ce n’est pas l’idéal… Maintenant la TV. Il y en a effectivement une dans la chambre mais elle n’est pas câblée et n’a pas d’antenne pour les chaînes locales bref elle sert absolument à rien à moins de brancher son propre Netflix et ne pas l’oublier avant de partir! Parlons maintenant de la cuisine située au sous sol et la salle à manger au 2e étage avec des escaliers étroits qui tournent. Attention pour ne pas échapper vos plats chauds et attendez-vous à faire des marches avec vos aliments. Bref, j’ai jamais vu une disposition non fonctionnelle de la sorte… Finalement la salle de bain commune. Il y a une seule toilette et douche dans la même pièce pour toutes les chambres de l’étage… imaginez l’attente le matin en particulier lorsqu’une personne prend 30 minutes pour sa douche et la même chose pour son/sa partenaire… en plus un occupant a décidé de faire son lavage et détendre ses vêtements un peu partout dans la salle de bain… mettons que côté hospitalité on repassera! N’espérez pas voir le propriétaire du bâtiment. Vous recevrez seulement un courriel de sa part donnant le code d’accès de l’immeuble et de votre chambre.
