Although the room is very simple but there are extra WC and shower room on each floor so very convenient. It is very close to the supermarket within walking distance. The shared kitchen on the main level is a big plus which we did not expect.

Well, certainly not the fault of the guest house, the fellow travelers who stayed there the night we were there were incredibly loud and thoughtless.

Very basic. Like staying in a dorm. But was clean and close to food and walking distance to larger attractions. Occasionally loud in the evenings due to hairdryers but was overall respectful and quiet

Guesthouse Pavi is great! We woke up to church bells on Sunday, which was kinda cool. Consider asking for more pillows if you like to sleep on fluffy pillows though.

It was nice, nothing fancy but worked out good for one night. We were on the fourth floor and there is no elevator so keep that in mind if you have difficulty with stairs or very heavy luggage. Make sure you receive the email with entrance details a few days before your stay, I had to reach out about it. There is a shared kitchen area where you can make a meal which is convenient.

Easy access and the free on-site parking is great. There was some minor construction/remodeling going on during our stay, but it did not interfere with sleep or relaxation. Nice common area and kitchen. Would certainly recommend to anyone staying in Reykjavik.

Nice little room downtown Reykjavik. Not much to it, no tv etc. but comfy bed and nice shower. Keep in mind there is no elevator (at least that I saw) so taking luggage up and down can be a pain.

Check is was easy as the instructions were sent days before our check in. Renovations were happening in the common areas and were all beautiful and modern. Hallways outside of the rooms had not been touched so they were a little dark. Only issue was one travel mate got stuck in the common are bathroom as the door handle was not installed yet. Overall great stay near main shopping area in Reykjavik. We got lucky and found parking right out front!
