convenient and cozy apartment
We enjoyed the central location, sunlit rooms and skylights which allowed us to see the northern lights on our last night in town! We found this to be a great spot for our family to relax after days spent wandering the city and countryside. The bedrooms were small but very comfortable and both had slanted windows allowing views of the night sky. There was plenty of space in the living / dining room and a nice kitchen with all the basics. We also enjoyed access to a private balcony with a view towards Hallgrimskirkja. Great spot, we would stay here again.

GREAT!
Me and My girlfriend stayed for a little under a week, and it was a great place to stay. so close to so many great bars and resturants. With easy pick up for tours and sightseeing everything was such a quick walk. We did have a little trouble finding a good place to park our car, but that was our porblem not the verbos. Management was very responsive to all our questions and was very pleasent to speak too.

Great Location
Sleeping accommodations and the overall aesthetic of the apartment was charming. Management was also very communicative and helpful, even offering suggestions for luggage storage when we arrived in Reykjavik very early. The bathroom was one of our primary issues during our stay as it was timy, a little smelly and difficult to maneuver without getting water from the shower or sink everywhere. Overall an OK stay for 4 nights.

Perfect location in central Reykjavik
The property was just what we needed for our first trip to Iceland! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen is small but adequate. We had trouble figuring out how to work the shower faucet to give us hot water, but management promptly responded to our inquiry and we figured it out. A few more towels would have been nice, and a small dresser or even plastic drawer units or luggage stands in the bedrooms would help. Because it's right on the main street there was late-night noise outside but it wasn't terrible. The only real downside was that for us, a 70 couple, walking up and down four flights of narrow stairs was more difficult than expected, especially with suitcases. I recommend the property for younger folks but caution seniors or people who aren't very fit to consider if they can handle the stairs. It's probably not well-suited to families, as the bedrooms and bathroom are quite small. Several of the pluses: being able to see the Northern Lights through the skylights in the bedrooms and from the porch; excellent communication from management throughout the process; a Bonus grocery store is less than a block away; and an ice cream shop is right out the back door!

Loved this apartment, just wish getting there the first day could’ve been more clear- one email said bus stop 7 and one said 8, another said 14! Definitely recommend bus stop 8 so it’s a quick downhill walk with your suitcases. Loved the location once we were there and the apartment is great. The team was also very quick to respond and help!

Outstanding location for a week in Iceland
This location is right in downtown, a stone's throw from the church. It is perfectly located to walk just about everywhere in town. The unit was perfect for our family of six. Parking was excellent along with check in. Rented a car and did day long trips. Unbelievable country. We loved the minimalistic vibe.
Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in Reykjavik.

Very drafty and dull kitchen knives
The place was clean and nicely done. Yet, it was very drafty and thus cold. Also the knives were dull and hard to use. There were no sauce pans or oven ware or spices besides salt. If you plan to use it for sleep that will work, but if you are going to make meals and rest when it is cold and windy, this is not the place for you.

Clean modern flat
We liked staying in your updated flat. The beds were very comfortable. Cooking was a challenge with the smoke detectors going off when simply cooking pasta. Installing a vent fan may help. We appreciated water kettle and convenience of the small kitchen but it would have been nice to have another pan perhaps a frying pan.It was very loud at night and seemed to lack insulation. Another issue was the amount of stairs. Back door entry was poorly presentable when entering the flat.

Nice Apartment, Fantastic Location
This apartment is great. It is small as the photos depict, but the beds are very comfortable and the view is wonderful. It suited my family of 4 just fine. My complaints would be that the keypads never worked properly for us and it took a while to reach the property management. Also, the entrance and hallway were always full of litter and the trash was overflowing. There are only 3 or 4 plates, which was a bit annoying.
Overall, a very good experience.

Great location in downtown
Amazing location right downtown Reykjavík! Beds were comfy and the style of the place was cute. Seriously loved being in the heart of everything. The noise was never bad but we ran a sound machine. Warning though there are a lot of
stairs (no elevators) but didn’t bother our group. I would give our stay a 4.5 and the only reason not a 5 is because of the bathroom. Poor drainage and circulation/venting!! Always seemed wet/not as clean because of it no matter what we did. Other than that our experience was great!!

A sweet cozy place but misses the mark in a few ways
It's very cozy in there which we liked.
Good location. Kind communication.
We had a few issues during our stay
- door code didn't work on arrival
- bad toilet smell on second day
- no chopping board, good knife
- original internet didn't work (but they had a back up)
- you had to fill out a form after booking which was a bit of a cuffufle.
- The location of the storage room was unclear so we put it downstairs which then wasn't the right place and we needed a code to get back in.
They had a lot of systems in place, but it seemed to not really flow. But they were quick to communicate and kind.

Good location
Great location. Unit is on very top floor with many flights of stairs. Consider this if you have anyone elderly in your group. Very simple place, one pot, one pan, 4 forks and two knives. No sharp knives. Code on door did not work when we arrived, had to email manager and wait in restaurant down stairs for response. Restaurant owner let us in the complex via the back door. This is not pleasant after traveling over seas with two small children and arriving early in the morning just to wait till 4:00 to finally check in and could not access the unit. The beds were very comfortable. Again, the location was great in the heart of down down Reykjavík.

Not as advertised
The property is in a great location but the common stairway to get up to the top floor is dirty and not well cared for. Inside the unit you’ll find a nice living room but I would not call this a 2 bedroom. Beds are wedged into 2 small rooms, just enough room to lay down. The bathroom leaves much to be desired. As a frequent traveler, I am disappointed. Under the sink, where plastic bags were to be kept, a previous quest used it as a trash can and threw cigarettes and trash there and it was not cleaned up.

Amazing Flat in the Heart of Reykjavík
The management team at Iðunn was communicative and easy to work with and helped immediately when there was a slight check in issue. The flat is in a perfect location in the heart of Reykjavik (walking distance to most everything). The place was lovely inside and met all our needs. A couple things to be aware of = The entrance seems sketchy, but ignore the trash / graffiti - its great inside. There are 4 flights of stairs, no elevator. This was no problem for us, but be aware. Yes, the water does smell and taste of sulfer. This is normal for Iceland. :-). And finally, the crowds are a bit boisterous on the weekends. If you are a light sleeper and in bed by 8 PM kind of person... We loved out stay. I highly recommend this team and flat.

Decent stay for one night
Stayed with our adult and teenage child for one night prior to departing Reykjavik. The location is excellent and my comments below are to provide additional information in most cases. I was glad I read some of the reviews to see that it was on the 4th floor, otherwise I wouldn’t have known. Parking was confusing for someone not particularly familiar with parking in this city. Maybe a recommendation and directions would be helpful? The apartment was renovated and really cute, but I don’t know that I’d recommend it for more than 1-2 nights, especially with more than 2 people. The grocery store is close. We did not use the kitchen so I can’t speak to that. The bathroom was small, as advertised. But, when we were there, it had a sulphur/sewage smell (we needed to keep the door closed). The shower curtain only had about half of the rings and was short, so water went everywhere. No soap, just shampoo and conditioner. We did teach out to property management as the door was open when we arrived and the code didn’t work. They got back to us in about an hour.

Disappointing
I have never left a negative review over the many years and properties we have stayed at. Unfortunately, we had a problem in the bathroom at this apartment and the management company was dismissive and brushed it off as “the way the water smells in Iceland.” We were very excited upon arrival at this property. The location is superb and the place was well decorated, spacious and seemed clean. My daughter opened the bathroom door and we all gagged at the smell that poured out. I immediately called the company to notify them and was told that when a place sits empty for a while the hot water needs to be run for 10 minutes. We ran it for 30 and that made it worse as the steam seeped into the whole apartment causing it all to smell (no ventilation in the bathroom.) I was in communication with the company for the whole next day trying to find a solution. We continued to be told that was the normal smell for the water. We have stayed in several rentals in Iceland and are aware of the sulfur smell of the water. This was not that! This smelled like sewage overflow or a dead animal. As much as we explained this to the company, they maintained that we were wrong and it was normal water smell. Beware of having a stinky time if you stay here.

Great Location and Views
The apartment offers great views, charming atmosphere and comfortable furnishings. As a warning to anyone with mobility issues, it is a four story walk-up.
My one complaint was the check-in process and descriptions of parking options. When we arrived, we did receive a door code and very general description. However, no one told us that our unit had a separate entrance on the backside of the building. There is a sign, but it's far from immediately noticeable, especially when one is tired from travel and jet-lagged. The whole process could have been spelled out in an email or message, well before our arrival. As it stood, all we had was the address and door code, no step by step help to get us in quickly and easily.
The managers should think about the average stressed and tired traveler, arriving with no clue about the property e.g.; "upon arrival, go around the corner of the property, past the Turkish restaurant, and turn into the parking space, next to the ice cream shop. There you'll find the door for your specific unit and enter the code listed below."
Also, parking instructions were very vague. I was left with questions like: "Can I park here all day and pay once, or do I have to refill a meter, several times a day? What are these three parking zones; what do they mean? Is there a place we can just park and forget our car, until we are ready to leave the city?"

Nice Place but not for the disabled
The unit was very nice but there are issues they need to address that would make this a 5-star. The issues are straightforward to fix in my opinion and cost little to no money.
First, I want to say that finding the entrance was a bit difficult. Better instruction should be given for the 4th-floor units. Also, 1st impressions are everything, the entrance is the trash area for the building and the ice cream shop. There was garbage littered everywhere when we got there and left. The owners should ask the cleaners to keep that area swept also. That would go a long way. The exterior parts were a bit dirty and needed work. Also, the kid's highchair and random items sitting right outside the apartment made it look cluttered.
2nd, there is no washer and dryer. That is falsely advertised. The washer and dryer are communal and, in the basement, 5 floors down. I didn't use it, so I can't comment other than I was a bit annoyed that we didn't have one easily available because I like to have fresh towels.
3rd, if you have mobility issues, this is not the place for you. It's 4 floors up and there is no elevator.
4th, they need a longer shower curtain. The shower curtain is short like 6 inches, so water got everywhere. No matter how hard I tried, water got all over the floor. The owner should get a glass enclosure or a longer curtain.
Overall the unit was clean, and they gave you shampoo and conditioner. The sheets were clean as well as towels.
