Great Service and location!
We are so happy we selected this property, 5 stars all around! The location couldn't have been better, right on rainbow street near all the shops, restaurants, bars, etc. Since we were right where all the action is, it could be a little loud late into the night on the weekend but we had ear plugs so it wasn't an issue. We also had a great experience with the property managers and the cleaning staff. I had reached out to the property managers through the chat feature multiple times prior to the trip and they were always quick to respond and provide helpful recommendations. While we were there, they also helped with quick response times when we had questions about check-in and check-out. We also were lucky enough to interact with the woman cleaning the apartments both when we arrived and when leaving, as she was cleaning the other units in the building. She went out of her way to help us find a taxi when she could have easily said she was busy or didn't know. The apartment was clean and as described. The only negative is if you aren't able to easily climb stairs, there is no elevator. Our group did not have a problem with this but if you aren't able to carry all of your luggage up three flights of stairs, take that into consideration. We highly recommend this apartment and Iceland in general!!

Perfect location
I would recommend this apartment to any group travelling to Iceland. The location is perfect. You are right on rainbow road within walking distance to shops, restaurants, bus stops, taxis, and the harbor. If you want to see as much as possible in the capital city - you need to be at this location. Too many of the hotels are not within walking distance of the main city streets. Bring earplugs as the street below is very loud all night. The penthouse apartment is on the top floor which requires three intense flights of stairs. The stairs were exhausting for our group of agile travelers but it was worth it each day. I do not recommend this apartment for anyone with mobility issues as it would be very difficult to go up and down the stairs + bringing luggage up and down the stairs. The penthouse apartment was as pictured - 4 bedrooms, two bathrooms and a spacious kitchen and living area. We had 6 guests stay in the unit and we all had plenty of room. The main bathroom is spacious with a window with the second bathroom being a wet-bath. Make sure you reach out to the host 10 days prior to arrival to confirm you received check-in information. We did not receive the information which made check-in stressful. However once we were in the unit all was well. You only receive one set of keys for the unit. When scheduling any excursions choose bus stop 3 or 6 as those will be closest to this unit. I would stay here again.

The location of the apartment is convenient in some aspects because it’s right at the end of rainbow road so there’s plenty of restaurants choices and shopping nearby. The main area of the apartment was nice, clean and open. But, there were several cons that if I had been aware of, I would have chosen another place to stay: Apartment is on the third floor and there’s no elevator. We had 3 elderly people traveling with us, which made this nearly impossible; there is no parking - we needed to park and pay about 1/2 mile away; there was a washer but no dryer; one of the showers does not have a lip so the water pours out all over the floor when showering; several of the windows were broken and unable to be opened which made for a very warm 3rd story apartment during the summer; because the apartment is right at the end of rainbow street, there is a lot of commotion, yelling, drunk people right outside which did not really quiet down until almost 3:30 AM.

Reykjavik Penthouse Apartment
Overall, I would highly recommend this apartment. Here are the "pros": * It had four good-sized bedrooms and two bathrooms, a nice kitchen , a big table with lots of seats, a TV/sitting area, and beautiful views! * The beds were comfortable with good mattresses and nice linens. * There is a washer but no dryer. However, there is a closet with a drying rack that was very warm. Our clothes dried super fast overnight. * The biggest plus of this apartment is the location, which is at the end of the "rainbow street" surrounded by tons of restaurants, shops, bars, and markets. It was within easy walking distance of all the major sites, as well as Bus Stop #3, which is on a pretty major street (can't remember the street name but the Hard Rock Cafe is on it). We took several tours that picked us up at that bus stop. There's also a taxi stand across from the Hard Rock. And here are a few things, not so much "cons", but that I think would be helpful to know: * There is no elevator so you need to be prepared to take three flights of stairs up to the apartment. * No cars are allowed on the street where the apartment is; if you're being dropped off, it has to be on a nearby street. It is still very close, but just something to be aware of. * It was a little hard to take a shower in the smaller bathroom as the shower is in the corner and there is no "berm" so water seeped over the floor. We very much enjoyed our stay and loved Iceland so much! We plan to go back and would rent this apartment again!
