We appreciated the stay, thank you for hosting us.
Pros:

Location was good and accommodations were comfortable.

Cons:

The noise was a bit unfortunate, but can’t be fixed as it’s the largest city in Iceland. Truly the only downside!

Goede locatie, te weinig comfort voor 7.
Pros:

Proper, zeer goede locatie.

Cons:

Eén badkamer voor 7 is te weinig.
De stores voor de ramen zijn heel slecht waardoor het in de zomer heel erg licht is om te slapen.
Veel lawaai tot laat in de nacht.

Excellent location - great communication
Pros:

Location is brilliant; rooms were adequate for 4 people; kitchen good. Was allowed to drop bags at a local hotel. Good communication with the hotel/owner. They are in the processes of selling the apartments.

Cons:

Stairs hard work getting 20Kg upto the top floor; kind of spiral staircase; kitchen could do with an extra baking dish
