Villa

This guesthouse is in a perfect location.  Lots of good eateries nearby and some great bars.  Parking across the street though you need to pay during the day, but I always got a spot.  Room was spacious and clean.  Check in was more like an air bnb, not a hotel, but even though we arrived at a different time than planned, it worked out.  I booked through Booking.com 10 months in advance and doing so saved me hundreds of dollars.  Villa is a great value.

Villa guesthouse is a welcome harbor in Reykjavik. Central to the action but far enough removed for quiet. It has no reception yet is easily accessed. Room was well kept, in European style not huge but comfortable. Bed was comfortable for two. Bathroom was appropriate. 
We were there on the summer solstice so the thick curtains were worthwhile, to get time zone acclimated. We arrived on an early flight, the shuttle dropped us off a block away at Hallgrimur at 8:00 check in is at 15:00. We left our luggage in the lobby, wandered for 7 hours doing touristy things, Jonesing get checked in for a nap.
Service was top notch, we needed to straighten out some tour plans and could not reach the operator directly, the villa manager made the connection for us, even got us upgraded.  
Close enough to shops and cafes for a short walk to anything. We will stay here when we return. It was a good value!

Manager is remote because they manage an additional guest house somewhere nearby. You have to try to reach them through mic at doorbell. Feel a bit lost.

Very difficult to get response by email, when trying to prepay bill before leaving US. 

But the Villa was clean and staff very helpful. Let us into our room early.

Very close to sights. Excellent location.

Icelandic warmth in Reykjavik

I’ve stayed at the Villa in the past. Very pleased with it. This time was very different. Small and very inconvenient room AT TWICE THE PRICE. No consideration for early checkin despite the fact that ALL flights from the States arrive early morning. Just wasn’t up to the standard I’ve experienced in the past.

Not what it was

Yes, the room was pleasant. The location was good. Rooms were clean and they offered room service daily. 
However, they ruined the start of our holiday. One of our flights was cancelled so we had to reorganise them and the only way we would get to Iceland on the day of our booking was on a flight which arrived at 1030pm. We emailed the guest house a number of times and tried to advise them of this. They didn't respond. So we called them and the man (I assume was the manager) basically flat out reused to check us into the room any time after midnight. We told him that we thought we might be there just after midnight after we got through passport control and got the shuttle into town (latest 1230pm) He said there was nothing he could do. Check in finished at midnight and he wouldn't give us an alternate late check in procedure. So we basically had to book a last minute room at a hotel near the airport and check in the following day. What a waste of a nights accommodation PLUS having to pay an extra night somewhere else. 
When we did check in the next day all he did was show us where our room was. We had already paid in full so there was nothing to sign. We also noticed lock boxes on the side of the accommodation that he could have easily put our key in for us. Shame on you!!
