Cozy Stay Near Hallgrímskirkja
great location friendly staff
The location worked great. Hallgrímskirkja was just outside the guesthouse. I liked the breakfast. The variety of food offered was enough. Friendly staff assisted with my needs. Kristian offered good advice about local restaurants.
I heard neighbors clearly through the thin walls. A mirror in the room should be added. The dining area felt small when crowded. Pictures online showed something different from my actual room.
