Great breakfast spread! Easy to find and short walking distance from the main street. Quality black out curtains to help us nap after our red eye over.

No parking lot, but parking is free at the church and on the street out front.

The location is great. Near the city centre but placed in a quiet street. Close to the main bus station. Several restaurants, shops and markets around the corner. Twin room is a bit tight if travelling with bulky luggage and it is well equipped for small bites (microwave, kettle, coffee machine, fridge, some cutlery and plates, and a sink) Nice breakfast is included in the room rate. It is simple but has a bit of everything. Overall, it is a good place to spent a few days in the capital. Recommended if not looking for a fancy stay.

It was not very anoying but it was a bit cold in the shared bathroom. A window is always open, I guess to prevent mist and humidity. Take this is consideration if travelling in a cold month.

The room was warm and clean, beds comfortable. We had kettle, microwave and fridge as well as crockery and cutlery, washing up liquid was supplied. Breakfast was in the main Aurora guesthouse was plentiful and had fresh warm bread cereals coffee juices and more. Shared shower room was always clean and tidy. Truly awesome shower. Shower gel was supplied in a dispenser in the shower and was very nice, I have sensitive skin and used no issues. Very central and 5 mins walk from Hallgrímskirkja and main shopping area. A Brauð & Co bakery shop just off the square by Hallgrímskirkja do not listen to Google maps. Also a hot dog stall at the beginning of the same road. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Personally I recommend this guest house highly as a good value for money central place to stay.

There's nothing I didn't like! Visitors note when you book Guesthouse Andrea is a separate building around the corner from Guesthouse Aurora but they are run by the same people. Reception and breakfast for Andrea are at Aurora not always clear on booking.com and Google reviews

We visited in December. There was a draft coming from the windows in our room which was present even when we close the curtains. And the toilet had the window (window was located closer to the ceiling) open so cold air was going inside.

They provide everything they say at the expected quality (or higher). I did not say anything about their WiFi because I did not need to use their WiFi. Otherwise, late check in at 2AM was not a problem, they provided clear instructions: key code to enter reception at Freyjugata 24 to pickup the key of the building and room where I had to go and a plan of their buildings at Freyjugata and Njardgata streets. Towels were provided at the reception when they opened, at 7:30AM. Everything was clean. Breakfasts were good, abundant good quality food. Hot water radiators really hot, so the small high window that staid open for ventilation in the showers room was not a problem. Microwave, fridge and electric tea kettle in the room were functional. Plates and silverware were also provided in the room. One toilet per floor (3 rooms) but it was not a problem for me, I only staid 1 week and I was still "operating" according to the time zone I come from.

The front door of the building I lived in was not properly tuned so the door closing was a bit noisy. I never waked me up but it might be a problem for sensitive people. A simple door rubber gasket (as actually are installed at rooms' doors) would help a lot. Also soundproofing of the building is not great, but it was not a problem for me, the other travelers were decent people.

I had a 22 hr layover so I booked last minute at 9pm. I then went on a northern lights tour got back to bus terminal at 1am. Called the admin office and the admin stayed on the phone until I reached the guesthouse and advised me how to get inside and made sure I was inside the guesthouse before hanging up. Only a short walk from the bus terminal and I felt very safe during my stay. The bathroom was clean water was hot and breakfast was traditional and had many options. I will definitely use Guesthouse for future travels.

The location is perfect, the staff super nice, and my room perfect for one night. I was nervous as I had read bad reviews but maybe some people have bad experiences(with noise, etc.) during high season.

The only minus is that if you have suitcases like me, going up and down stairs is not ideal. The super nice lady at the reception helped with my large suitcase upon arrival, but whennI left, having to shlep two suitcases back to Aurora to give the keys back was a bit of a hustle. Breakfast is also in the other building. I will definitely go back but with smaller suitcases.

This is a nice guesthouse. Check-in is at the nearby Guesthouse Aurora run by the same management. I had been in an economy room before, that was really small. This time I stayed in a twin room, which was just perfect. The room had shared facilities but there was never competition for them. In the room there was a "kitchenette" consisting of a small fridge, a microwave, a kettle, some dishes and a kitchen sink. A good desk for working. I very much like the breakfast (served at Guesthouse Aurora), probably one of the best you can have at accommodations in Reykjavik. There are always several types of freshly baked bread, a nice variety of jams, cheese/ham, tomato/cucumber, boiled eggs, cereals, milk. Coffee, juice of course.

Accomodation is situated in great location near city center.Price vs. comfort is adequate

It is super close to the center, main church and rainbow street and also to the BSI bus terminal where the airport shuttle buses and many day trips leave from. The rooms were equipped with cutlery, plates, mugs, electric kettle, microwave and a small fridge. Breakfast table looks exactly as the photos, there were no unpleasant surprises.

The bathroom was shared on the floor, but we were aware of this when booking, so it was part of the deal. There could be more salty options (more types of ham etc.) for breakfast, as by the fourth morning could have had something different.
