The room was spacious and clean, shared bathroom was also clean. Good spread for buffet breakfast and good amenities to use in this guesthouse. There was a strict check in at 3pm but the host let us wait in the waiting area when we arrived at 2:30. It has nearby bus stop but everything is walking distance if you brace the weather.

Wonderful, cute nice place. The morning breakfast really helped for a long day and the room service was top notch. Harpa arranged for us the cab back to Keflavik airport as well. Really sweet people and really fun.

Cozy, clean. I just dont like to be inspected while i eat. And if would want to eat 8 eggs for breakfast, i think it would be none of your business. Im on holidays, i dont want to be stressed because you dont want me to take a leftover sandwich in my pocket. Leave people alone.

Our room (2 separated beds) wasn’t even shown on the website…. For a good reason because it was super tiny, just one person could open the bag at one time. When you move you had to be careful not to throw down the shelf. The other rooms seemed to be a little bit bigger and more modern. During the breakfast you were always supervised by the hosts. For five rooms upstairs you only had one toilette, so you had to be fast. You only get a smile when you leave.

My husband and I stayed at Alba Guesthouse for the first and last nights of our trip to Iceland, and found it to be convenient and nice. The location is very close to the Bus Hostel/Reykjavik Terminal pick up point (4 minute walk), and it is also a nice longer walk into the center city area. The guesthouse is quiet and in a residential area. The bathrooms are shared, so I appreciated having a sink in the bedroom for brushing teeth, etc. The breakfast is a full continental spread, and the coffee is especially good. The owners agreed to let us drop off our bags before check in time so we could explore, and communication with them was good. Would recommend!
