105 - A Townhouse Hotel

One of the only hotels that has private facilities in Reykjavik. Small but cozy, but you don't spend much time in your room. In walking distance from many places. This room has a kitchenette. Daily housekeeping. If you need extra towels and toilet paper there are some near the elevators. Had problems checking in so we called the number and someone came quickly and sorted it all out. Not much lighting in the room.

I went into my room, to find someone else lying in the bed naked, apparently I had been double booked and my card still normally worked to get in to this other persons room. Absurd stuff. They moved me to their sister hotel, which was further and really affected our plans. The hotel breakfast was horrible, and pretty much all the items were gone if you dident go early enough. Our room was full of dust, untidy and in general just very glum. We were promised a half of the price refund, which I was chasing for 6 months before giving up. Their manager Jokull Thomason has been constantly lying on the phone, saying he's working on it, without really progressing the issue at all. Jokull Thomason never, not even once, said that the refund would not be coming, instead he kept on promising and apologising. Bizarre behaviour, please save your money and yourself from headaches and go somewhere else.

Fantastic stay, would highly recommend anyone looking to book. Safe on street parking outside hotel. Great Location, rooms were well equipped with everything we needed. Great coffee too! Self serve check in/out was straight forward and hassle free with good communication from the host. Area felt safe (as does the whole of Reykjavík) we had a very nice rental car and had no concerns over leaving it on street over night. There was some noise from the street as other reviews have mentioned (mainly the odd loud car) but we did have the window open - and this did not really affect our stay at all.
