老闆和工作人員都非常得好也很體貼，我們常常因為出遊換房間，他們就常常要幫我們搬行李,安置在下一個要住的房間，真的非常感謝!
房間都很有藝術感,住起來很溫馨,而且我第一次有看到在清理窗簾的旅館，所以保證清潔清理得很徹底。
每天早上在餐廳吃早餐，氣氛也特別好,推薦大家來這裡住,真的是一個好地方，而且離教堂8號車站非常近,去任何旅遊行程或去機場搭車都非常方便

Guesthouse is generally older with few upgrades or renovations.
(+) Rooms were adequate space.
(-) 10 or more guest rooms with 2 toilets and 1 shower (from what I could gather). It could get dicey under the right circumstances.
(+) Heated towel rack.
Hairdryer in WC but no outlet.
(++) Fully equipped kitchen and cereal in the morning.
(+) Walking distance to public pool and nearly everything downtown.
(+) Check-in process was easy and communicated in advance.
(-) Shower room has small vent but it only runs while the light switch is on. Window can't be opened either. Humidity and low ventilation makes it smell like a locker room with some gym shoes.
For someone looking for a hostel vibe, this is it. If you prefer a cleaner environment, you might want to explore other options.

The room (#8) we got was unlivable. There was mold on the ceiling. The heater wasn't working. They have two portable ones which didn't hear the room as much. The toilet is tiny and the room smells of Sulphur. We couldn't wait to get out of there. The kitchen and other areas looked good. The people there were nice. When we complained about the heat, they got use another heater which helped with the heat issue but the Sulphur smell didn't go. The toilet sink leaked on the floor, overall very messy. They advertised on booking as they have parking - in fact they are located across the street from a parking lot - it's not free. It is misleading. Definitely want to reiterate the people were nice. We arrived early and they gave us the room much before checkin time. The location is good.

Guesthouse nel retro della chiesa principale di Reykjavík con numerose camere disponibili.
Cucina disponibile per prepararsi qualcosa e lavanderia a uso degli ospiti per lavarsi i vestiti.
La stanza era pulita e ordinata, la nostra aveva sia un piccolo bagno che una doccia in camera; altre invece avevano un bagno in comune.
Le finestre non si potevano bloccare aperte purtroppo per far circolare un po’ l’aria. Tende delle finestre poco oscuranti che fanno entrare molta luce nelle prime ore del mattino. Self check in disponibile dal primo pomeriggio circa.
La zona è ottima a pochi minuti a piedi dalle strane principali della città.

Valuto positivamente solo per la posizione , la camera piccola con un bagno di dimensioni minime. Pulizia approssimativa, abbiamo trovato avanzi di cibo degli ospiti precedenti.

Easy checkin, great atmosphere and cosy rooms, communal areas with personal touch, location is very central - close to main shopping street, restaurants and bars, 8 min to bus station that takes you to Airport. Clean, great interior and friendly hosts. Highly recommend!!!

We stayed at Eric the Red Guesthouse from 5-6 June 2024 and had a great time! The self-check-in was super convenient, and the room was just right for two adults, though the toilet was a bit squeezy. We didn't try the meals, but the fully equipped kitchenette was a lifesaver. It had everything we needed, plus some extra food left by other guests. The location was perfect, with easy access to nearby attractions, and Eric even suggested a free parking area, which was a nice touch. No issues at all during our stay. Overall, a satisfying experience and highly recommended!

I hosted a wedding in Iceland.

This "guesthouse" had a false advertisement on AirBnB for a townhouse with 4 bedrooms and 8 beds with a shared bathroom.

I invited my four friends to Iceland to enjoy my wedding and they paid over $1600 dollars for this townhouse apartment.

When we arrived at the house we found out they had switched out the advertisement to a hostel with thirteen tiny bedrooms. that only fit two single beds and the shared kitchen was a sad shelf on a tight common corridor with a microwave.

We had to argue with Airbnb for SIX hours to get a refund because the owner of the building had taken the money and gone on a vacation to Greece and was unavailable to be contacted.

Definitely do not recommend this place as they are cheaters and liars.

I have added pictures of the original entry and the bait&switch entry they changed it to after we booked the apartment. AirBnB took our side after sending in all details and issued the refund, which tells you everything you need to know.
