Pros:

Absolutely excellent location. Right in the centre of Reykjavik beside rainbow street. Very straightforward check in with codes instead of keys. Lovely warm cosy rooms, fabulous shower. Would absolutely come back

Cons:

We couldnt get the hob working to make some breakfast (it was on a lock that would not come off) I emailed and never got a response. It didnt impact us greatly as it was eggs so we used the microwave, and we ate out for lunch and dinner, but with the cost of eating out in Iceland, and if it was a family with children etc Im sure it would have been an issue. And I couldnt realistically rate the staff as we never met any. Again not a big deal but only conversation I had was via email (regarding hob) and didnt get a response

Pros:

Dejlig central beliggenhed. Gode senge og stort badeværelse.

Cons:

Ingen udsigt fra kælderlejæigheden. Og ingen emhætte. Kunne godt bruge et par tekrus og mere bestik. Hovedpuden var hård.

Excellent self catering option for small families
Pros:

Great location and really easy self check-in and checkout

Cons:

We struggled to get the second tv to work, and there is no luggage storage option which made things a bit tricky due to our flight timings

Spacious comfortable apartment.
Pros:

Wonderful apartment right in the center of Reykjavik easy walking distance to everything in town including bars, restaurants, museums, grocery stores and also conveniently bus stop 6 which connects to the main bus station for trips, airport bus etc. Although apartment was very relaxed and quiet despite its location. Apartment big and clean, good shower and heating for the cold Icelandic January. Even provided a toaster on request, could not be more helpful. Would recommend city and apartment.

Comfortable and close to everything
Pros:

Cosy, comfortable & clean. The team at Heimaleiga were extremely efficient.

Cons:

The apartment looks out on a courtyard that should be spruced up. The price of the great central location is of course a bit more noise. Despite this I would stay at Ice Apartments again.

Great location and facilities. I’d stay again.
Pros:

Great location, neat and tidy with good kitchen facilities

Cons:

Couldn’t get the tv to work but also didn’t contact anyone to ask, so might have been a simple fix. Not a big problem for us. Bathroom light took a little while to work out - switch is underneath the sensor.
