City Comfort Apartments

This is generally a very comfortable and convenient place to stay in Reykjavik. The location is especially good, steps from the #9 Tourist Bus Stop, right next to the main street of Reykjavik, and well served by transport. Excellent coffee shops, restaurants, convenience supermarkets etc are close by. It's quiet at night (not least because it's behind 3 layers of glass and not on a vehicular street) It is also quite a spacious studio (basically a one bedroom) and generally well-equipped, including a dishwasher, washer and dryer, drying rack, microwave. It feels clean but also homely. If you were based in Reykjavik for weeks, you could manage here very well. There was pre-checkin baggage storage but the instructions could have been slightly clearer. I eventually worked out how to operate some aspects of the apartment which were unfamiliar - perhaps the instructions could be more explicit for the washer and dryer. I didn't feel confident using the iron (someone's melted something onto the sole) and according to the compendium there was supposed to be washing powder, but I didn't find it. But generally these were small points.

The studio apartment was in the shopping district and it was perfect for the two of us. It had a well appointed kitchen with 2 burner stove top, oven, dishwasher, small fridge and dishes/pots/pans. There was an indoor dining area plus it was great to have the enclosed balcony too to eat at and take coffee. Having the washer & dryer made it possible to not overpack. The apartment was very close to restaurants and shops. The area was busy but we did not hear any of the street noise, the apartment was very quiet. I would recommend this accommodation to any couple.

Great location and responsive property owners. They responded to calls timely. Very clean and with basic needs stocked and ready at check in.

Great location. Some issues. Sink in bathroom clogged. No shampoo or conditioner. No bedding for sofa bed. Water smells of sulpher. I have been to Iceland 3 times and never had this. Towels were lousy. No paper towels. No coffee maker. A french press which was half broken
