Excellent location! Convenient to everything in downtown Reykjavik. My only suggestion would be to have someone help with luggage. We noticed a lot of older people who struggled getting their luggage into the hotel since drop off is located on the backside.

everything - excellence, but at night the music out there could be a disturbance. Need to open the window, else too stuffy. And it woukd be great if the hotel provides a bigger mirror in the living room.
