Annette
Very clean and comfortable! Had a small issue with getting the check-in information but overall it was a great stay and would happily stay again.
Lois
Staying at REFURINN Guesthouse was a wonderful experience. Owner Jay was very helpful. Property was very clean. Great locations to shopping and dining.
Tsaiti
Great location and great staff
Wendy
It was basic but very clean and quiet. For what we needed, it was great!
Chelsey
Perfect for a quick stop
This is perfect for one night or a couple nights. Was clean, had everything we needed. Didn’t see any staff but we had excellent instructions so was no problem. The room itself is quite small but was perfect for one night. Would absolutely stay here again
Melina
Neat & tidy as well as very comfortable. Appreciated the nice coffee in room.
Dawn
We had a little trouble with check in because we booked through Expedia but we were able to get it sorted. Everything else is great. Perfect little home-base for our Reykjavík visit. Highly recommend. Bathroom is very clean, very walkable to downtown.
Peter
Very peaceful stay and not too far from the town center.
Benjamin
Easy walking distance to everywhere and everything went smoothly.
Susan
Quirky but cozy house. We had room 10, which was the entire top floor, basically an attic with a pitched ceiling. There is a door to a stairway leading to the attic. The threshold was somewhat annoying as the bottom step is not very deep and has a strip of wood that has to be tiptoed over or uncomfortably stepped upon. The room had 2 couches; 2 club chairs; a table with 2 folding chairs; and a kitchenette with a sink, mini fridge, electric kettle, and French press. Tea bags and ground coffee were provided. Plenty of electric outlets. Overall, it was pleasant and spacious, but I would not recommend it for very tall people with big feet.
Paula
The Guesthouse is located in a very central part of town next to a lovely Church and up the street to harbor and all the nice walking areas. The kitchen is nicely organized and comes with everything to create nice home made meals. There are three shared bathrooms that are also pleasantly shared with considerate guests. The staff is helpful and good communicators. We stayed twice before and after our long road trip and enjoyed returning just as much.

Very cute and cool loft apartment in a very quiet area but close to old town Reykjavik
Alexandra
This is a great spot to stay, great location to sights, easy free street parking. There is a very cute kitchen for use, shared bathroom is clean and easy to use. There is a washer/dryer available if you need it. The room is very comfortable and has its own sink and coffee/tea setup. The doors are a bit creaky which makes you feel bad to go to the bathroom in the night, haha, and there is a playground outside the window and kids play until 1030pm in the summer! Bring sleep mask if coming in the summer! :) Would definitely stay again!

Good:
Great location, in the city centre. Efficient entry system (keys in lock boxes). Tea and coffee in room. Shared kitchen is great and shower rooms were clean. Property was very warm throughout. Email from owner the night before our stay was informative and provided all necessary information.
Not so good:
The ceiling and walls of our room were very thin and did not absorb sound well, meaning we were kept up because of scrapes/bangs, people opening doors etc. I know it's not easy to fix but it affected our stay as we simply did not sleep well (and we are heavy sleepers!). I sent a message to the guesthouse owners, who said that they contacted the people in the room above - unfortunately, it only stopped the noise for one night. On a side note, we stayed a week and the room was not serviced at all (it states in the listing that rooms are serviced once per stay). I did ask for some fresh towels midweek and they were delivered the next day.

I liked that the check in process was very quick and easy. Instructions for check in were very clear. The washroom and room were clean. Our stay was quiet and safe.

Fußläufig zur Altstadt von Reykjavik. Parkplatz direkt vor der Tür gefunden. Zahlbar mit EasyPark App. Zimmer sauber, insgesamt bauartbedingt etwas hellhörig. Toplage. Aktuelle Nummer zum Helpdesk steht am Nebeneingang vorne.
Marion
Tolle Lage, ruhig und trotzdem nicht weit von der Innenstadt entfernt.
Dorte M.
Super beliggenhed
Fantastisk beliggenhed, centralt i Reykjavik. Standard på værelset var relativt ringe, sengene var acceptable, de øvrige møbler i rummet var meget slidte og plettede..
Jóna
Allt mjög snyrtilegt ,þægileg rúm .Takk fyrir okkur.
