Iceland in 48 hours

The apartment was very easy to find and very clean. Access was simple and close to two bus stops for easy travel to and from airport in Keflavík. Location was awesome’ just a short walk from all the shopping and oceanfront. Lovely bakery down the street and around the corner with AMAZING array of different flavored cinnamon rolls and bottomless coffee. There’s also a chicken wing joint that cannot be missed!! Everything about our stay was excellent. We also did the 11 bus tour of the Holden Circle to the Blur Lagoon. Absolutely worth the day and the price!!

Excellent Location and Very Clean

This two bedroom property is in an excellent location and they were very responsive with any questions we had. I would highly recommend this for anyone who is staying in the city. Our particular apartment was on the fourth floor without an elevator so it can be a bit challenging carrying luggage up and down. Also of note, is the bedroom with one large bed is really only two twin beds pushed together. So if you are traveling as a couple it isn’t very convenient or comfortable to have a large crack in the middle of the bed. Otherwise, the apartment itself was perfect for us. Very clean, comfortable, and well maintained.

While the rooms appeared to have been cleaned and the sheets and towels were clean, the rest of the space was dingy and in disrepair. Missing floorboards, paint chipped walls, chipped counters, dirty furniture, stained curtains, missing lightbulbs, etc. There were no fans in the units and we had to open the ground floor windows for air. The area was very noisy all night with people walking by and yelling. We had trouble accessing the units and had to call several times for help getting into our apartments.

Good location. Near bus stop 9 helpful for excursions and airport transfers. Apartment big enough for family of four. Lovely and warm after braving the elements. Bonus supermarket nearby and foodhall for eating out.. Kitchen equipped with basic essentials if you wanted to self cater. Good size fridgefreezer.

Lovely apartment, comfortable beds, good heating and good facilities in the kitchen and bathroom. After much research for a place to stay we were very happy with this choice. Location was brilliant to access all parts of town; restaurants, bars and shops. We would definitely recommend this apartment and Reykjavik for s fabulous holiday. Iceland is amazing. Thank you.

Well located, but...

Great location, but the apt was i) not in good condition (rip carpet in hallway, chipped plates & cups, jammed windows...), ii) dirty (dust balls on corners) and ii) not well stocked (we were 5, but dinning sets were for 4, only one bathsheet no hand towels each). Finally, avoid 4th floor as rooms were not fully useable due to roof slope (which we all hit our heafs on at least once)

The property was in a great location. Easy to walk to downtown sites and activities (even in the cold), close to shopping and groceries, and also close to restaurants. It was very cozy and warm and we loved that we had 2 bedrooms. There is no parking at this property, so when it says \"Parking available\" it doesn't mean on the property; free parking is about a 5-10 minute walk away.

We had to two apartments for a group of 8 and they were spacious and comfortable. The only thing I would add is the top floor apartments don't have full ceiling. One must bend down to make your way in bedrooms and living room. Kitchen does not have this problem. While this might be common in Iceland, something to just think about if one cares. The view we had from both apartments was fantastic overlooking mountain and North Atlantic Ocean.

Very good value

Apartment was warm, clean and tidy.
Bathroom/ shower were great
The tv took me some time to sort out as both end of the Arial cord were not secure and loose.
Cooking, there was not a baking tray to cook chips or chicken on
As far as safety the front door chain could not be used. The frame was held on with some pins and old glue and had fallen off.
Not totally safe.
Bedroom window was in need of double glazing as an arctic breeze was blowing in all night.

We asked for an early checkin and they offered us a significant charge to check in two hours early. When we didn’t accept the additional cost they didn’t give us our access code until an hour after check in time. We stayed two days but was only give one towel.

Great property. Close to restaurants, coffee shops, shopping. Easy access to bus stops where tour buses pick up. Close to running/walking trails and local sights. If you’re tall you may want to ask for lower floors as the top has sloped ceilings, but the loft style unit we were in had an amazing view so we didn’t mind the sloped ceilings😀

Great apartment in dowtown Reykjavik

Nice neighbourhood- we slept very well, not too noisy but easy access to city centre by foot or scooter. Very comfortable beds and apt has great layout. You could fit a family in nicely. Would stay there again. Full kitchen to prepare meals and snacks

Tyr apartments were very clean and in a good location, close to many restaurants and shops.
We would of given the apartments 5 out of 5, the only problem was the bedroom window has a large gap between the window and the wall. The gap had been partly filled with tape and paper but this didnt stop a very cold draft coming through, we could also hear a lot of street noise through this gap, which woke us up several times. This would not stop us recommending this property as everything else was excellent.

Perfect location, bright and clean 1 Bedroom flat

Very clean , bright 1 Bedroom apartment with additional very comfortable sofa bed in lounge. There were 3 of us, but easily would fit for 2 couples if required.
Very convenient location - a stone thrown away from the centre and only 15 mins walk to BSI bus station where most tours starts. Pick up Stop 9 only 3 mins walk
There is a luggage room and laundry room in the building. Convenient check in process (just a message with door access code - no mess with keys)
Hob, oven, kettle, coffee maker, pans and cutlery . The only thing we personally were missing was a microwave oven , but I guess it is down to personal preferences.
Otherwise, it was a perfect 5 nights stay for us

Tyr Apartment ideal location

A very warm apartment quite well equipped , however no kettle and the micro wave was situated in a very high cupboard above the fridge freezer. It was impossible to reach without standing on a chair, (so we didn't )
There were spare duvets and pillows however no spare covers.
everything was very clean but some wall tiles in the bathroom were about to fall off.
The location was very good, within easy walking distance of the harbour and centre. there was a handy corner shop at the end of the street.

One bedroom apartment in a very central district, walking distance to the main tourist street. On ground floor on a corner, so not the quietest, and also need to keep blinds down so people cannot look in. Could not work out how to close the sofa bed.

There was no proper cleaning done prior to our arrival. Toilet is dirty and rubbish left uncleaned. We paid for 4 pax but the apartment only serve 3 pax. The double sofa bed was given bedsheet that doesn’t fir, single bedsheet was given instead of double. We informed the hotel personnel to do housekeeping the next day but they never came. In fact, they asked us to collect the new set of towels on our own at the store room. We have paid for cleaning but there is no housekeeping throughout. And definitely no free parking, wrong info in their posting. Bad bad real bad. Will never stay there again. Con-ster.

Great place to stay in downtown Reykjavik

Great place to stay in downtown Reykjavik. The place is spacious and comfortable with lots of places to store clothes, a closet for your outdoor gear and everything you need in the kitchen area to make a quick breakfast. Despite it being really cold outside we barely needed the heating on as well.
