Room for improvement
This place would be great if the shower head worked. (The overhead part would not switch on and the handle part would not stay affixed.) The other very unpleasant experience was the lack of privacy and light intrusion sure to the door being only partially frosted. I did not feel comfortable being undressed in my own room because anyone could easily glance in the room. The light just outside the door relatives lot, and there was no option to turn it off, so I had difficulty sleeping.

lovely beach front spot
We spent our last night in Iceland here in the Deluxe Apartment, 2 Bedrooms, Terrace, Ocean View. It was lovely! Easy to find, parking right in front of the unit (with a friendly cat to greet us!). They sent us detailed information ahead of time about recommendations in the area for food & activities. The unit was modern, clean, & very spacious. The beach is right there with gorgeous views. The only weird thing was the bedroom windows look into some sort of garage or shed (?) but the views in front were spectacular so we didn't care. Check in & check out were a breeze. Easy drive to Selfoss. Would have loved to spend some more time here. Highly recommend!

We stayed in one of the apartments. Great location, very clean. One issue, the bedroom windows looked out into a warehouse, so no ventilation and were very warm. Also, the lights were left on in the warehouse all night, and window coverings did not block the light.

Big comfortable overnight stop
Big apartment, bathroom and comfortable beds. Spacious and comes with a fully equiped kitchen. We had the room upstairs at the corner. Parking right in front of the building. Good WiFi signal. Quiet. Stayed overnight on the Ring Road circuit.

We stayed at Bakki Hostel and Apartment for one night during our ring road driving trip recently. The apartment looks rustic from outside but it’s quite new and well equipped inside. The place is very spacious. We are happy with the stay. The village itself is a little remote and rundown.

Great area and these apartments appear new
The accommodation appears to be newly constructed and very good. However, the hotel says it has a restaraunt & Bar, but it does not have it on site, they affiliate with a restaraunt down the road. False advertising to get you in.

The apartment was great. Lots of room, decent sized appliances, tonnes of closet space. Probably ideal for a long term stay or if you have a large family. The only knock on the space was that the bathroom could probably use an upgrade. Communication with the hotel was poor however and the office is never open, even during listed hours. We attempted to contact them using email/contact us link numerous times but they did not respond. Just had to check the office multiple times every day to eventually get lucky. Really nice people but they need to be around a little more even in the off season. I suspect high season may have been better. It is a great apartment though in a quiet little town just a short drive from lots of activities (geysir, Thingvellir, Selfoss, Lava tunnel, horseback riding, etc).

The apartment was huge, sparkly clean and equipped with modern appliances. It was right on the beach with a nice patio. The manager showed us the room and how to use the appliances. We loved how spacious the apartment was and my kids enjoyed lounging on the big sofa while watching TV (Netflix and more). The manager also recommended a local restaurant 5 min walk away, the red house, which was delicious.

Bakki Apartments was a great place for my family of 5 (kids aged 10,12, 13) to stay on our first night in Iceland. It's not too far from the airport and is in a very quiet area with a lovely beach walk. It had all we needed and the staff was very accommodating in allowing an early check-in. We highly recommend!
