Good Stay
We received an email the day before stating our room number and codes which was great. Location was perfect. Less than a 4 min walk to Bus Stop 6 for drop offs and tour collections and right in the centre, near Rainbow Street. The room itself was nice and modern however very warm. The radiator next to the bed just wouldn’t switch off so we had to keep all windows open which was no issue however the noise from the street below & car park was not great 3 out of 4 nights. Very inconsiderate people were sat in a car for half an hour periods with music blaring between 11pm- 5am and then from 6am every morning there was what sounded like machinery going for 2 hours. Which was not at all the fault of the owners however not being able to sleep wasn’t great especially with late nights and early mornings due the nature of tours. The bed also only has 1 pillow each which would have been fine but it was so thin. The option of another pillow would have been appreciated but we checked cupboards and there weren’t any extra. Lighting in the apartment was also very poor. Again not a major issue but you couldn’t see in the wardrobe without using the torch on your phone. Overall a nice place, in a great location. We were maybe just unlucky with the radiator and noise.

We arrived at 2am and the code to open the door to the apartment didn’t work, so the hassle to call someone and everything. No soap.

Love the location of the property, easy access for shopping, dining and public transport. The downside includes no washing machine and the door doesn’t close properly.

Good place good location would recommend
It was a really good stay the beds were amazingly comfortable!! What topper do you use lol? Really clean room and a great location. Easy to get in the building did encounter an issue at first but called up and they answered and resolved it straight away. Only downside was if it is loud outside you can hear it but this was only an issue on one day and other times it was fine

The apartment building is centrally located in one of Reykjavik’s main city centre and the “rainbow” street. The aparthotel is on the 3rd and 4th levels of the building and a walking distance from the Hallgrimskirkja and a 15m walk to the BSI bus terminal where the Flybus airport buses and Reykjavik Excursion tour coaches arrive and depart. The unit was clean and tidy on our arrival. It is bright and spacious enough for a couple or two people travelling together. The bed and linens smell fresh. The unit is also furnished with cooking facilities such as cooktop, kettle, toaster and coffeemaker as well as a kitchenette equipped with a dishwasher and fridge. Access to our apartment unit was clearly communicated by e-mail with simple and straightforward instructions. A big plus for this property was its proximity to a supermarket (Kronan was only a few steps away from Alva’s entrance door) and many other dining venues nearby. The only downside of this property was the noise from other guest rooms. On the day we checked in, there was a party in one of the units on top of us and the sound of dance music carried on until the early morning making it difficult for us to sleep in peace. The succeeding nights were much quieter although the sounds of motor vehicles and pedestrians were still audible from our room. Overall, we enjoyed our 3 nights stay in Alva and will book this property if Iceland beckons us again.

Property was really well placed for downtown Reykjavik as well as clean and spacious. The only thing that let it down was there was no cooking it utensils such as pots and pans making the self catering option void. I note previous comments to this affect so it’s a shame it’s not been addressed. We would stay there again (and hope the cooking facilities improved)
