The property is 3 stories high and huge. Each floor has toilet & bathroom. Very convenient for the renters. Everywhere is tidy and clean. Close to BSI, downtown. The owner is very responsive. Loved the place I stayed. Would recommend to anyone.

I've stayed at Baldursbrá in the past, having visited Iceland 17 times now. It's a great solution if you just need a place to stay, perhaps in transit to the airport or as a base for exploring. It's a self-check-in guesthouse, so that's convenient, but of course, it lacks character and charm as a result. Great for sleeping, and perhaps you might try the hot tub in the garden too.

Older reviews talk about a host family, which appears to have changed now. During my stay it was an unstaffed property. That's common in Reykjavik, but it created a few problems. Upon arrival you walk in the unlocked door and check for your name on a whiteboard. My name wasn't there, so I phoned the property number. They were efficient and offered me a better room by way of apology. I then had a phone call from the property at midnight, which woke me up. I missed it so phoned back, apparently it was a mistake. Next day I got an email, which was checkin instructions for another resident. I just ignored it. The next day I had another call, double checking which room I was in. So all in all, organisation was pretty poor, although the people I spoke to were pleasant. Otherwise this is excellently located, central and in a nice area, with free parking (rare). My room was in the Garden House, which is a two floor structure on the building's side. Unlike the main building it is wooden framed with corrugated metal, which means it creeks terribly when people walk around. That meant I didn't get great sleep. The room however was nicely furnished and very clean. Overall, the property was good value, but there is a need for things to become a bit better organised.

Not clean and not well managed.
A very uncomfortable experience. Firstly a triple room was booked and paid for but I was allocated a double room. Things looked clean at first but under beds it was very dusty and there was other guests trash. The room in the Garden House shared a bathroom with four other rooms. The bathroom was a disaster, the shower flooded before I could use it and the large and heavy sink was dangerously unstable on its legs. The bathroom was unusable and the guesthouse management unreachable. I had to use a bathroom in the main house that was unclean. With such high number of people sharing bathrooms, a single daily cleaning is simply not enough. I requested a partial refund to compensate for this experience and Hotels.com reached out to the guesthouse management on my behalf - management refused to provide any compensation. Very disappointing since this place is so well reviewed - a gesture of acknowledgment of this negative experience would have changed everything - I understand things can go wrong but the way things were handled was not great.

We loved our stay here. We got a cabin in the back and it was more than we expected (a well stocked kitchenette - we expected some shared spaces) and beautiful. This place also included breakfast and was our most affordable stay in our entire trip (others charged more and did not include breakfast). We also got to see the northern lights while here and the surroundings are beautiful. We took a short 7 minute drive to the bridge to watch the lights dancing by the water and mountains. Both concierge members were friendly and willing to help! Highly recommend!
