Suðurnesjabær Vacations

Great little hotel, with lovely staff, who gave us our room, shortly after noon, even though check in at 4 pm, and even brought all our luggage into our room. The breakfast was fine for a small place.

It was a score to find a four bedroom apartment by the harbor, right by so many great shops, restaurants and attractions with parking on the street! You of course pay for these conveniences and location in the rental price. The things we loved : • walking convenience • plenty of beds • a drop zone or “mud room” • a usable kitchen • free wifi • separate toilet from shower room • the exposed stone on the walls was beautiful The things that we didn’t care for: • the place was a SAUNA! we did not sleep because it was SO HOT. we had all of the registers off, windows open but there was no way to turn off the in-floor heating. • exposes insulation and missing wall board above the electric box • fine dust all over the floors in the restroom from the exposed stone • there is no living room or couch or armchairs. Your place to be together is in the kitchen around a table with very hard benches. Would we stay here again? NO. we got the apartment so that we would have a place to sleep. We could not sleep because of the extreme heat. ( and we stayed on a very cool day summer where it rained the entire time)

Beautiful room and fun breakfast basket with some great fresh bread

The outside door keypad was terrible. We had to use the call system to get in which took sometime. I would not have booked there if I had known there was no on-site host/desk. I did like the convenient location and the on-site free parking.

The blue luxury apartment is very well located and easy walk to downtown sites. Main things to watch out for: 1) no parking on site but convenient free to low cost street parking nearby. 2) very limited toiletries. Only 2/3 roll of bathroom tissue provided for 6 guests and 4 towels for 6 guests. Bodywash and shampoo in shower was empty. If you plan accordingly it isnt an issue but was a surprise for us. 3) the unit got warm and no easy way to cool. No fans in room and some of the wall thermostats were out of battery and unclear what they controlled. We had to sleep with all windows and outside doors open which was ok minus the bugs 4) kitchen is well appointed but you need to provide all ingredients 5) poor communication with hosts - i emailed several times and never received replies. 6) no elevator and to get to apartment plan to walk up steps. Not an issue for us but if you struggle with steps could be an issue
