“I find this guesthouse strikes a smart balance in Reykjavik's 101 district; it's close to the action, including spots like Harpa Concert Hall, yet offers a more local, residential feel. The rooms include kitchen facilities, which is a real advantage, especially considering its reasonable price point. For travelers who want to explore Reykjavik's culture without sacrificing comfort or location, this seems like a solid choice.”
