The location is in an ideal spot for walking everywhere in the city. The space itself was very spacious and the sleeping arrangements were comfortable.
Beautiful room. We stayed in a 1 bedroom that sleeps 4 with 2 sofa beds. Highly recommend this clean place with great location to near by restaurants and shops. Check in and out is very simple and easy.
The room was perfect for our needs. Comfortable beds for three, clean, excellent location. The staff was very responsive and helpful by phone or email.
Most economical apartment we stayed in during our visit to Iceland, but it felt like a luxury apartment. It had everything thing we needed for a comfortable stay. A bonus was the fast wi-fi which allowed my granddaughter to complete her online classes. Wonderful bakery next door!
The location of the stay was great! & front desk was very helpful!

Great option for families since there is two futons that two kids/small adults can sleep in living room while there is a king in the main bedroom. In a great area close to everything!

We had a great stay at Rey Apartments in Reyjavik. Our room was fantastic and we loved having a kitchenette and lounge to use in the mornings and evening. The location was fantastic and easily walkable to the main areas of town. The apartment was clean and check in was super easy. We'd definitely stay with you again!

This location was excellent to walk to a corner market a block away, restaurants and nightlife. We didn’t cook but having the option would be great for a longer stay.

The place is located very close to the city center, which makes sightseeing very easy. There's not enough parking space for all visitors, so we had to figure out something in the paid parking zones, of which there are plenty around.
The biggest problems were the shower curtains and the shower ventilation. The curtains stink, and the ventilation made a really loud and obnoxious, high-pitched whining noise whenever it was on.
The hosts accidentally directed us to the wrong apartment, but luckily they are all nearby, and the hosts are easy to reach by phone.
