Perfectly located in the tourist area with easy waterfront access just a few blocks away. Airport access is super easy from bus stop #6. Grocery store just a block away. Very nicely decorated common area (kitchen and living room).

Our room was excellent, the community area was well stocked with utensils, cooking and dinner ware. Everything was very clean, comfortable and warm. The patio area overlooking the road/city center was wonderful. Location is fantastic!!! Roughly the center point of the city center, shops and restaurants abound. We were in Iceland two weeks, easily our favorite place. Would definitely rebook here if we were to return. Highly recommended.

Great location, right in the middle of everything. We were a family traveling and had early morning plans. This is a hostel and there were some younger people staying in the other areas. Overall everyone was quiet and respectful.

Positives - clean room and very convenient location.
Negatives - no luggage drop off, no fan or AC, TV didn’t work and no elevator.

The place is clean and convenient, but if you’re flying from the US, flights generally arrive early and you will have to store your luggage. There is an automated luggage storage facility nearby, but the cost was about $25 for two medium bags and two carry ons. You will need to rent a couple of lockers. The storage facility is underground in a car park, so you will need to take stairs. Also, at the apartment, you will have to take two or three flights of stairs depending on where your room is. If you’re not into carrying luggage up and down stairs, choose a different location. I wouldn’t stay here again, but if you’re arriving in the afternoon and only have a carry on, it would be okay.

I am aware there was no reception and it is a self check-in. The code I received stated for the room. Sure, they showed a video of how to unlock the door with the keypad. However, they didn't say that the outside door to the streets is also coded the same. So, I had to assume it will just be the same. However, when I entered the number, it wasn't working. So, I tried to call the number listed for help...twice! No one answered. Somehow, an individual who seemed to be living there helped me in. I was also assigned a room number, but I wasn't told which floor it is. Again, the person told me where my room is. Finally, I entered the assigned code to the actual room and still didn't work. So, I was let it again by this person. I called the helpline again and finally somebody answered and had to reprogram my code until it finally worked.

The location is central walking distance to shops and restaurants in Reykjavik. Bus stops are a 3-5 minute walk for excursion pickups. The staff is friendly and patient, especially after an issue with a lock. I would recommend a suite with access to the common area. The common area is comfortable with all necessary items.

In the heart of town

Worked well for us. Room B 11 is the bigger room but smaller than an American hotel room and is right at the corner of Rainbow Street. Enjoyed going to Sessions for beverage (just below the room) and the convenience of the kitchen across the hall. The room has hooks on both sides for hanging clothes (no drawers), a mini coffee maker with pods, hot pot, microwave, and mini fridge, very hot shower 👍. Although small… We didn’t spend much time in the room so that wasn’t a big deal. It’s right above restaurants and near pubs so one night was fairly noisy but the remaining three were fairly quiet. Greatly appreciated the staff quick response time & friendliness.
No elevator/lift so good to pack light🙂 and 100% can drink water from the tap.

Perfect Quick Stay

This property is centrally located in downtown within walking distance of everything. The unit was small but had everything we needed. The only downside is that it’s above a bar which you can hear at night & there’s no private parking so we had to find public parking. I’d recommend this place to a quick, convenient stay.

Clean, comfortable, modern. Best thing was the washer AND dryer because we always plan to do some laundry during our travels. Great location right on the main tourist street, but it was never noisy. We had a small room with tiny bathroom—I usually hate tiny bathrooms, but this one was totally acceptable and nice and clean. We were on the top floor with a balcony in the shared kitchen/sitting area. For introverts, the shared area may not be great since other travelers may be there using the space. But we enjoyed having it.

Horrible Experience - beware!!

Booked quadruple room to show up to a tiny room with a small bed and a couch. The bathroom was also outside of our room through shared areas, which was not specified on the website. The picture of the room on the booking clearly showed a room with two queen beds and a bathroom attached to the room. The confirmation also stated free parking outside, which was not the case.

Called the on duty manager to see if there was anything else they can do. They didn't have any alternatives so they agreed to cancel the room and would allow hotels.com refund us. Hotels.com are saying the accommodation will not respond to them and as the booking has no cancellation within 24 hours, they will not refund us.

Poor, poor service by the accommodation and hotels.com.

We had 2 of the bedrooms and used the kitchen for a big group breakfast. Beds were comfy. Sofa beds a bit hard however. All 7 of us said we'd book this again. Highly recommend, especially for a larger group.

Property was great. But beware…. We booked ‘a package with air and lodging’ The airline changed the days of our flight. We did not have the opportunity to cancel our lodging. Luckily, it worked out for our group. But if it hadn’t, we would not have been given a refund. They only offered future credit toward the lodging booked.

Great for nightlife - not for undisturbed sleep!

If you're in Reykjavik to stay up late partying and enjoying the nightlife, then this is an ideal place to stay. If you're on a 24 hour stopover and want to get a little sleep like we were, then it is not a good fit.

This place was in a prime location, right in the heart of downtown Reykjavik. The flip side is that it was RIGHT on top of a bar/club and faces on to a popular \"party\" street, so there was thumping bass all night and loud activity until 5am. At 8am, the powerwashers came to clean up - even with earplugs none of us got more than a few hours of sleep. It also was not accessible by /car bus because it was on a restricted street, which means we walked blocks with our bags in the middle of the night just to get there. The place itself was clean and we'll kept, with easy self check in and check out. There was plenty of food provided for a quick breakfast (skyr, fruit, milk and cereal, snacks, juice) which was a lovely touch. Great, comfortable place, great location, just not convenient for a quick in and out stay like we had.

Perfect Location

It was the PERFECT location in town and walk to everything. VERY clean and super comfy bed. If you are driving it is hard to get to the front door in a car so it's better to have your GPS send you to a parking lot close by so you don't have to rive in circles like we did. There is a hostel with the same name that your GPS may take you too also. The open concept shared kitchen was fine there are 6 guest rooms on that floor. The worst thing is the hot water smells like sulfur (rotten egg smell) but all of Rekjaviks hot water smells.No elevator and we had to climb 49 stairs with luggage.

First of All, I am upset with Expedia. This is NOT HOTEL: MAKE SURE TO DO NOT PICK UP THIS PLACE. THIS IS A SHARED APARTMENT. Wrong advertisement at the first place. Nobody is welcoming you. You arrived at the 3rd floor of a building :no elevator. Plus, You have your room in a shared apartment: kitchen and common area are shared. BATHROOM IS OUTSIDE OF THR ROOM! Expedia never mentioned that in the adv. unbelievable. But this was not enough: in the morning you have to share the kitchen with guests. Host did not put enough breakfast in the fridge, and the other guest got mad with us because, in their opinion, we used too many eggs and bread. I was shocked. Too be honest not event to the host but more to Expedia that allow this kind of fake business. This is an AIRBNB NOT AN HOTEL. I really recommend to not go there. You will be very disappointed.

Small but great location.

Stayed here for two nights, April 2019. Had apt 1 (third floor) with three single beds. Room has space for the beds and little else, but had a shared roomy kitchen, living room, and veranda overlooking the busy shopping district below. Notable for people with limited mobility, there are three flights of stairs but no elevator. If you need or expect an elevator this is not for you. There is a washer and dryer for shared use of the residents, the dryer didn’t dry all that well but we got it done eventually. May have been a machine problem or an operator problem, not sure. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful stylish apartment, great location

We stayed in apartment 11 - which was a little apartment room for 2 people. The decoration is beautiful and stylish and it’s a really cosy and comfortable place to stay. There is crockery, cutlery a microwave, coffee machine and kettle in the room, along with coffee and tea, cereal and biscuits. The room is clean and lovely.
The service was great, you check yourself in with a code, and we were able to check in an hour early which was really helpful! We managed to lock ourselves out one night and the owner lived locally and was able to come and let us in within 5 minutes of us calling her - even though it was past 1am!
The location is great, easy to walk around town, lots of near by shops and places to eat, and near to bus stop 6 where all the tours can pick up and drop off.
The TV in the room has Netflix which was a nice touch, especially as on a couple of days we had some nasty weather and wanted to stay in and cosy for most of the evening!
The only downside is that the apartment is above a bar, which is fairly quiet until about 11pm, and then became noisy until about 2 or 3am on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It’s closed on Sunday though, and without the music from the bar, it’s really peaceful. We would definitely stay again, despite the noisy bar - just bring ear plugs!!

Ideal Accommodation for Business & Personal Stays

Maria was very responsive to our questions about the accommodation and our first visit to Iceland. We stayed in her home for 5 nights and felt very much at home. The Luxury Villa is located in a very quiet neighborhood near the sea with beautiful views of Reykjavík. It was about 10-15 minutes' drive time to most parts of the city. We are very grateful for having found B14 Apartments and would recommend it to other travelers.
