Great Location!

Just enough space and amenities for two to enjoy this centrally located studio apartment. Surrounded by many restaurants, cafes, bars, and shops. Perfect quarters for our introduction to the city of Reykjavik!

Far from luxury

Only 2 pillows. Only 2 bath towels and one shared hand towel. No closet of any kind. The only place to hang clothes was a single mount 3-swivel hook on a wall. Entirely inadequate. No response of any kind from the host asking for more pillows and a coat rack.
