In the end the room we ended up with was fine. Thought we were getting a shared bathroom accommodation but ended up with the entire 1st floor apartment. Though that wasn't clearly communicated right away. Biggest drawback is the proximity to the street. The windows are paper thin and we could hear everyone walk past them in the night.

This property made my dream come true. I was asked if I wanted to receive calls for northern lights, and the staff called every guest like me. Additionally, the breakfast was excellent, hot tub and sonar rooms etc were also great. It was definitely the top one hotel in my entire journey!!!

A convenient no frills guesthouse in an awesome neighborhood close to everything. Pricey for a sparse room with a shared bath and no concierge. Our room was clean but smelled a bit like a smoker had been there

We booked a room for three people. The website said it is a room with 1 queen bad and 1 twin bed. We first received an email saying our room is #6 on the second floor, then we received another email later saying our room is #3 which is on the first floor. There is only one queen bed. We have to drag out a floor mat from a dirty stock room and let our son sleep on it. In addition, there is no napkins nor tissues provided in the room. Better bring your own if you choose to stay here.

The property was convenient to the transportation options, it was close to the downtown area and other sightseeing areas. The only issue we had was not being able to get into the property because we didn’t have the code for the door. We had to call the number, and the gentleman gave us the code over the phone.

The property is 3 stories high and huge. Each floor has toilet & bathroom. Very convenient for the renters. Everywhere is tidy and clean. Close to BSI, downtown. The owner is very responsive. Loved the place I stayed. Would recommend to anyone.

I've stayed at Baldursbrá in the past, having visited Iceland 17 times now. It's a great solution if you just need a place to stay, perhaps in transit to the airport or as a base for exploring. It's a self-check-in guesthouse, so that's convenient, but of course, it lacks character and charm as a result. Great for sleeping, and perhaps you might try the hot tub in the garden too.
