Room was very good. But the location and the lack of reception area, not even a chair with virtual reception help, is not for seniors or people with mobility issues who don't drive

ODDSON Downtown is a perfect option for those looking for a quiet, understated but still comfortable and cozy stay in Rvk. If you're an ambitious walker like me who prefers privacy and adventure, this location is excellent, with easy access to 24 stores, groceries, bus stops, and dinner options. There's usually parking in the area, even if it's not the ODDSON spaces, but be careful to avoid the reserved spots directly next door. The kitchen is perfect, the bathroom is small but clean, and the bed is super cozy. With Icelandic heating, you can keep a window open at all times, which feels refreshing. The staff are responsive, my only complaint is the late check-in time, so definitely recommend booking the day before you arrive if your flight lands early in the morning.
Room was decent. Location was good (we drove most places, but it seemed that it should have been walkable). I'm old school and didn't like the lack of reception area - we arrived early but there was really no place to store our luggage and the key pad outside was temperamental.
We loved this location and hotel. Very comfortable and the cafe nextdoor was excellent m!

The room was cozy and beautiful. We love it! However, we had a disaster. The bathtub leaked and the water ran into the kitchen. We were shocked and had to dry the place. The staff were helpful. They came to check and relocated us to another room. The repair was done in a short time and we decided to stay in the same room. What a memorable Christmas!

Great bakery on the main level, rooms were clean and excellent. Only thing I’d change is putting a real door on the bathrooms but it worked.
