We loved our 2 stays at Rey Apartments. We are aunt and niece and really appreciated the extra space while being so close to everything. Easy to get to bus stops for tours and anything else we needed. Beautifully cared for property and would highly recommend
The location is in an ideal spot for walking everywhere in the city. The space itself was very spacious and the sleeping arrangements were comfortable.
Unbelievable location. Apartment is located in the perfect spot to explore all the must sees in Reykjavik. We had a little confusion with the check in process, but the host answered our call and guided us through it.
I have stayed with Rey Apartments several times and would stay again. Clean, spacious, comfortable, excellent communication. Great value for the price. Location is easily walkable to all areas in Reykjavik. Highly recommend. . ,
Wonderful location and great amenities. We were forced to return to the city one day sooner than planned due to inclement weather and the hotel staff were able to accommodate our early arrival, answered a million questions we had, and remained very supportive throughout. They exceeded every expectation- we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel
Good studio for two adults and teen. Well equipped and excellent location. Only negative was the big windows out to the yard which meant there was no privacy when other neighbours were coming and going or smoking out there, unless we had blinds down which meant it was very dark.
The room was perfect for our needs. Comfortable beds for three, clean, excellent location. The staff was very responsive and helpful by phone or email.
Beautiful room. We stayed in a 1 bedroom that sleeps 4 with 2 sofa beds. Highly recommend this clean place with great location to near by restaurants and shops. Check in and out is very simple and easy.

No Breakfast service; Kitchen is okay but not super clean, no services and only meet reception has to walk out to find actual lodging in another building a bit tiring
Most economical apartment we stayed in during our visit to Iceland, but it felt like a luxury apartment. It had everything thing we needed for a comfortable stay. A bonus was the fast wi-fi which allowed my granddaughter to complete her online classes. Wonderful bakery next door!
Spacious and good location. Refrigerator and microwave and electric tea kettle were nice to have too. Would have been nice to have just been messaged the rm # and code but not a big deal.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Listing was very deceptive. Said there was laundry but the laundry is pay laundry and it’s a laundromat a block and a half away.
Additionally essential can adore your hit with a sewage smell. Itself is very very noisy and the blackout curtain has spaces and leaves much light still coming in.

Great space, great location. Walkable to everything. Only problem was finding out the proper entrance so our door code would work.
