I needed to make a last-minute reservation in Reykjavik and looked at Guesthouse Aurora primarily based on price and location. And it didn't disappoint. I had a clean room, clean shared bathroom and a good breakfast in a safe area very close to Hallgrímskirkja church. They also can do laundry for a cost and hold luggage.

Clean inviting and friendly guesthouse in the heart of Reykjavik. Right by bus stop 8, perfect for tour pick ups, and an easy walk to the Main Street with food. Community pool within walking distance as well. Felt safe and comfortable as a female solo traveler. I stayed in the second building, which was also an apartment building on the other side. I needed 3 keys to get into my room which made me feel extra safe and comfortable. Breakfast was fresh buffet style and perfect to grab before a long day of adventures

Budget but great value and location
This is a budget guesthouse. That being said, the staff was very responsive booking us a return bus pickup to the airport and the breakfast was varied with fresh baked bread.

Near Hallgrimskirkja Church and within 10 minutes walk to downtown and Central bus station the guesthouse is in great location. Lovely breakfast with warm breads in the morning. My room had a kitchenette which allowed me to make some meals (money saving as eating out is expensive).

With free parking around the corner and free breakfast in the morning, this place was ideal for a couple of budget travellers. Well stocked kitchen and plenty of EU adapters to borrow if you forgot yours, the building was a bit older but maintained with care. The tenant fridge is on the upstairs, and came in handy with the kitchen downstairs. Very nice fellow guests, lots of diversity and no problems with sharing bathrooms with fellow guests.

central location, steps from the Hallgrímskirkja, and very walkable area. The single room I had was good. There is a fridge and sink in the hallway that can be used. Bathroom is modern and clean, shared with other guests. Everything was good; the breakfast buffet is very good, with lots of choices. (The only thing that was not that great was other guests arriving very late at night and being noisy.)
