The check in process was quick and easy. Our room was exactly what we needed as a base for exploring Reykjavik. We used the shared kitchen a couple of times and it was well equipped.

Guesthouse is just across from the Hallgrímskirkja. Making it completely walkable location. we felt safe the entire trip. The bus stop is also just by the hotel you really can’t beat the location. Bathrooms are a bit small if you have a private bathroom but I would stay again as the location was perfect.

Finding lodging in Iceland isn't easy on a budget. So when I saw this "relatively" low priced guesthouse, I must say I wasn't expecting much. What a great surprise it was! It couldn't have been any cleaner. No carpets anywhere (carpets in hotels are rarely fresh and clean). It was extremely quiet. There was a balcony. My friend and I were in a room with a shared bathroom and there were only 3 rooms sharing the bathroom. Walking out the front door the big church is just a block away and in full view. We didn't communicate often with the staff but when we did they were extremely pleasant, helpful and accommodating. Everything that we'd wanted to see and do was within 5-15 minutes walk, so perfect location. If I'm ever back in Reykjavik I'll definitely be staying here and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Our flight to Iceland was abruptly cancelled by the airline due to a storm. I phoned Guesthouse Sunna to inform them that it would be impossible for us to arrive and requested that to cancel the booking. They stated a two-day advance notice for cancellations and charged my card for one night without any consideration of the circumstances. I am disappointed by Guesthouse Sunna. It seems their primary concern is financial rather than the well-being of their customers.

We stayed here for 1 night. The location was great, near many Reykjavik sights. The room was clean and comfortable. The only negative thing is the sulfur smelling water which is common in Iceland.

My sister and I very much enjoyed our stay here. It was across from a beautiful sculpture park, and the Hallgrimskirkja church! It was the perfect location to get all of the tour busses (bus stop 8). I would definitely recommend Guesthouse Sunna to anyone

Parking was hit and miss. Definitely missed a few times they could use a couple more spots. Don’t do the breakfast but we stayed with our 3 kids 10 and under. It was nice, clean and neighborhood is fantastic.
