They provide everything they say at the expected quality (or higher). I did not say anything about their WiFi because I did not need to use their WiFi. Otherwise, late check in at 2AM was not a problem, they provided clear instructions: key code to enter reception at Freyjugata 24 to pickup the key of the building and room where I had to go and a plan of their buildings at Freyjugata and Njardgata streets. Towels were provided at the reception when they opened, at 7:30AM. Everything was clean. Breakfasts were good, abundant good quality food. Hot water radiators really hot, so the small high window that staid open for ventilation in the showers room was not a problem. Microwave, fridge and electric tea kettle in the room were functional. Plates and silverware were also provided in the room. One toilet per floor (3 rooms) but it was not a problem for me, I only staid 1 week and I was still "operating" according to the time zone I come from.

The room was a lot bigger and nicer than on the picture. The kitchen was well equipped and there was a cleaning lady coming to fox up the common rooms every day. Heating worked fine, the bed was comfortable. Very close to everything thats worth visiting in Retkjavik.

    The guesthouse is very strategically close both to the city centre and the bus terminal (from which the buses to the airport depart directly, with no need to book for the drop off/ pick up service), but at the same is in a quiet and very green residential area. The room is small (but it was clear from the pictures posted, so no surprises there) but very clean and comfortable. Thorey was a great host and ready to help when I called her before arriving, and left very specific instructions for us regarding our stay. Lovely dog too!

    Very good price for a single room in Reykjavik, was even cheaper than dorm-beds in some hostels! Good location, only a few minutes walk to city center. Supermarket next door, still the street itself is rather quiet. Very clean and also has basic equipment for cooking.

    Plenty of toilets (4) and showers (3), kind hosts who were eager to help with small favours, tasty smörgåsbord breakfast, quiet rooms, classic Reykjavík home guesthouse! Easy access to city center by short walk.

    Access to the guesthouse is by email instructions which were clear and helpful. This is one of the cheapest hotels available at the moment in Reykjavik but the room was clean and bright. Wifi was good, shared bathroom also clean - if rather small - and the staff helpful. Bed was basic but comfortable and I slept well. The hotel is in a good location near to the city centre but in a quiet area.
