Perfect location. Kudos to Alberto who checked us in and took care of a bathroom problem promptly. He is friendly and professional.
Verified review

6/10 Good

Nice size flat and very good location in the middle of Reykjavik. However, the windows on the street level means it is very noisy, we slept very poorly during the weekend. Also, quite expensive street parking.

Location is amazing. Place is minimal, but a fine home base. The bakery downstairs is divine.
Verified review

6/10 Good

It was an okay place but could be more cosy interior and better kitchen equipment for the price (e.g., no coffee machine or any kind of a pan). I think it's possible to have a bit nicer stay with the same price in the same hoods. But great location and okay place, as described.

10/10 Exceptional

We love our apartment! It is a great location and check in process is very smooth. However, one thing to note is that this property does not have elevators and the 2-3 bedroom apartment is located on the 4th floor. It’s quite a hassle to carry the luggage up the spiral stair. Would still recommend the Rey apartment for group travelling.

Thank you for your thoughtful arrangement. Our family was given two rooms connected by a private lobby, which made our stay much more comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms were clean, well equipped, and perfect for families.

Location is outstanding! Would stay again. No coffee maker. Just kettle, but no coffee. Bring your own instant. Also, parking is paid street parking. Tip: don’t park in P1. Drive just north to the ocean to P3 and save 80%!

We loved our 2 stays at Rey Apartments. We are aunt and niece and really appreciated the extra space while being so close to everything. Easy to get to bus stops for tours and anything else we needed. Beautifully cared for property and would highly recommend

No breakfast, but there is a bakery immediately next to it. Check-in is handled by nearby Hotel (2 minute walk). Check out electronically. Great location!
Verified review

6/10 Good

The location is probably the best selling point of the place. Check-in process is fine, you have to walk two mins to a hotel to check in. There’s a radio you could use at the apartment front door to call the hotel receptionist but no one answered when we called. There were some miscommunications between the hotel and the cleaning crew. We booked the hotel for two nights and the cleaning staff opened our door on the second morning at 8:30 (doesn’t make any sense even they thought we only booked one night and if the checkout time is 11 am) Overall the location is pretty good and the cafe downstairs is amazing

This property was in the heart of Reykjavik. Easy process to check in and set up transportation from the airport to the property. Allowed us to keep our luggage in a luggage area after we checked out but still had time to enjoy the city. Comfortable bed, felt safe and extra towels provided as needed. The only criticism I would give was the shower curtain seemed to have mold at the bottom of it- as it never fully dried. We would definitely recommend this property if staying in Reykjavik Iceland!

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.

Good studio for two adults and teen. Well equipped and excellent location. Only negative was the big windows out to the yard which meant there was no privacy when other neighbours were coming and going or smoking out there, unless we had blinds down which meant it was very dark.

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.

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!
