Very comfortable unit - not too small, outside door to a patio, convenient kitchenette, comfortable bed, clean new linens, room darkening shades, great water pressure in the shower. The one downside is the loud hallways and doors slamming. Use earplugs!

Location on a side street, down a hill. No check in personnel, a small waiting area with a locked luggage storage room, which could be accessed with a code. Our studio had a door to a private balcony which wouldn't lock, but after a call to the management, a repair man came and fixed it.

Just a few tweaks and this would be perfect.

Location was great. Listing said the room had a toaster, but this was not true. Instructions for using the hotplate were insufficient, we had to ask for help when instructions should have said that the pot needed to be placed on the hotplate for it to work. (Apparently this is obvious to some people!) Overall we enjoyed our stay.

This was a great place to stay as a single traveller. I was a bit disappointed in the quality of the wifi because availability, full access to wifi was intermittent and unreliable when I was trying to do email and other wifi related online transactions. I was able to save a lot of money by buying my own food to prepare all breakfasts, most lunches and some dinners. Otherwise I enjoyed my stay very much. I highly recommend this hotel.

Great location, but be advised!

We were locked out from the start, everyone that we ran into was. Door code gets sent through an email that looks unrelated. Door codes (multiple) did not work when we called. It was reset while we were still there for someone else locking us out after 10 PM in the freezing cold. This is also not a hotel. Expect to clean and take out your own trash. No free parking as was originally listed on my booking search (I believe this has been fixed in the listing). Great location, poorly run, was not correctly advertised.

We stayed 2 nights at Swan House. It was super convenient - it was right in the middle of town, and we could walk to most things, and just a couple minutes walk to the bus stop for things farther away. The apartment was nice and clean and had everything we needed for our stay. They had a luggage storage room, which was very convenient since we arrived too early to check in. We dropped off the luggage and took a taxi to Sky Lagoon and had a wonderful few hours before time to check in. We had an issue with access - the code we were given to access the outside door and luggage room did not work. I messaged them, and they sent a text back within minutes with a different code so we could access the luggage room before check in. Absolutely lovely place!

Great property. Short walk to downtown Reykjavík. The property is extremely communicative about everything. Very spacious apartment. The only drawback is that there is no storage if you are planning a longer stay. Other than that, this place is great.
