Host is friendly and helpful, rooms are exactly what you want for a night stay, would stay again

I so rarely leave bad reviews, but I have to for this place. The woman at the guesthouse is kind and helpful, but the man is the rudest person I’ve met in some time. I felt so unwelcome. He also left a dirty towel in my room after a “cleaning” one day and then told me I had left it there when I asked about it. It was a hand towel, and I am confident I didn’t put it there because I was given one bath towel and no hand towels at any point in my stay. The bathrooms are not very clean. I’m gluten free and was told there would be breakfast options, but there really weren’t. It was mostly bread. The atmosphere is very sterile and quiet. The guesthouse was not very close to downtown, and I dreaded the trip back and forth in icy conditions. Lastly, the pillows are so thin and hard. (I was given only one and when I asked for a second the man didn’t want to give another one to me.) I thought stacking the pillows would help, but they were so awful that I walked 20 minutes to a friend’s hotel after one night and borrowed a pillow from her for my stay. If you can pay a little extra, I seriously recommend staying elsewhere. Staying at this place really diminished my entire experience in Iceland.

During our recent visit to Iceland we had misfortune to stay one night in Alba Guesthouse in Reykjavik
I never felt more unwelcome; more like an intruder than a paying guest... Maybe people who have problems with welcoming guests into their hotels should not work in hospitality ...
And even cheap price doest not excuse rudeness

Great place that provides a restful bed and a good breakfast. A guesthouse with 3 levels with a shared bathroom on each floor.
It's a great place to meet other travellers. Good price for a place that provide breakfast. Highly recommended

Everything was good. The guest house is close to the center, within walking distance. Free parking, good WiFi. Great for a good breakfast. Very comfortable beds, good sleep. A very suitable option for one night. Two toilets and one shower, but since the people is not a lot it is not a problem. Thanks owners for stay
