    The location is very close to the center of the city. You can walk to the whale watching in 5 -10 mins. You can go to the closest restaurant in 5 - 10 mins. You'll be living at the ground floor, thus you will probably be able to hear the foot step...

  • Hello, I really like your place but our group has 4 people as a family. Is it possible to add additional bad or add sofa bed to suit for 4 people. Thank you.

    Hello! Thank you for the question, it really depends on the apartment you buy.. FJALL has 2 king sized beds and it is possible to ad a mattress to this apartment. The other apartments are to small to add a 5th person.
    Answered on 7 June 2022
  • Are there elevators?

    There are no elevators in the building but 3 of our 5 apartments are on the bottom floor (FJALL for 4 guests, FLJÓT for 2-4 guests and FJARA for 2 guests)
    Answered on 20 June 2022
  • Hi, I have some question about the sofa bed of Studio Apartment FLJÓT,it seems it just a L shape sofa in photo, if we have 4 people, I would like to check how people sleep on the sofa bed, directly sleep on the sofa? Or the sofa can be adjusted (re-organize or something) the shape to become a bed?

    Hey! Yes the sofa is a pull out sofa and we put a thin "mattress" on top of it so it can room 2 persons, it is bigger then on the pictures. People are satisfied with it :)
