Brautarholt Vacation Packages

It would’ve been nice a shower. Also if you’re tall, you will get your head.

The host was amazingly helpful getting us into the apartment, as we had arrived early. She allowed us in to store our luggage while we got some lunch. The apartment was spacious and comfortable beds/pillows. Close to the Harbour and restaurants. The couch in the living area was extemely uncomfortable and broken. This should be replaced for future guests. Otherwise very pleased with our choice at Kartuki.

Great place if you need to stay in Reykjavik with your family. Can't beat the location, it is very close to everything: few steps away from a famous bagel place and at least half a dozen of restaurants, literally across the street from the old port and bus stop #4, only few minutes away from a center city and at least 2 grocery stores. Apartment is clean and spacious for 4 people and has all the essentials including full kitchen and washing machine. One thing to note: hot water has a pretty strong sulfur smell (it seems to be the case in many places in Reykjavik). Didn't bother me much but my wife and daughter kind of hated it. There is no designated parking lot but plenty of street parking nearby and we were mostly walking everywhere.

Beautiful location, novel experience but a little hard to find the exact location

Rooms were not cleaned on arrival. A phone call to the inn keeper was successful in getting someone to come out immediately to clean the guest house. For the price of this rental, the property was tired and rundown. The shower overflowed/leaked. The kitchen was nice even though we did not use it.

No Pool! even though the main photo of the listing is of a pool, there is no pool on site, they offer access to a public pool about a mile away. To me, the whole point was to be able to go down for a quick swim with the kids, not have to venture out, find parking and all that hassle. That was very frustrating. Pool aside, the apartment was very nice. Clean and modern. Great view of the sunset over the ocean. If you're looking for a place with a pool, this isn't it. If you don't care about the pool or don't mind a small side trip to use the pool, it's very nice and I would recommend.
