My friends and I enjoyed our stay in Reykjavik. Thanks to Ulli for a seamless check-in/out experience at this beautiful and homey space. Our group of 5 guests comfortably fit and enjoyed the amenities including the dining area, bedrooms, laundry and parking space. It was very convenient to drive 8 mins away to town where all the restaurants and shopping were nearby. If you book the Sky Lagoon (great experience IMO), it's also a 12 min drive away. Thank you Ulli for allowing us to stay at your wonderful space. We enjoyed our first time in Reyjkavik and would definitely be back!

We spent two days in Reykjavik at this property with our family of five (3 teens). We were able to experience the city by walking anywhere we needed to go (bus stops, downtown, grocery store, restaurants), all very convenient. Ulli was a gracious host and the apartment was clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay!

Ulli's property is beautiful - very central but just outside the hustle and bustle of the inner city so quiet and spacious. The beds were very comfortable - and windows equipped with blackout coverings (which helps in June when there's 24 hours of daylight). The garden is such a great aspect of the space. Would definitely stay here again!
