Fully equiped mini apartment, excellent for family. The owner was very attentive. A super location just steps away from the main city center to walk and visit the Food hall.
As a family of 4, it was great to have room to spread out after the smaller spaces in Reykjavik. You can walk to the grocery store and food hall. The river outside is so beautiful and peaceful, especially after checking out tourist attractions all day. The apartment was fantastic!

Very nice place, very clean and convenient to grocery and bakery. The kitchen was a definite plus for a family as it gets pricey eating out every day! Beautiful scenery of the river was absolutely serene! Host was amazingly gracious and accommodating!

A really nice apartment with a great view of the river. A comfortable place to stay with plenty of room. Glad to have a washer and dryer, instructions on the operation of them would have been great asset.

Wonderful host! Kristin was on site making sure our check in went very smooth and provided an excellent restaurant recommendation for dinner. Very conveniently located to, restaurants, groceries and gas. One of the cleanest homes I’ve stayed in. Full size washer and dryer in the unit was amazing for our family of five after traveling for a few days. Home overlooks a beautiful river. Highly recommend this place for your stay in Selfoss!

Kristin (the owner) is a very caring person, she personally come in to greet us when we arrive; she also knock the door to let us know to come out to see the northern lights; her hospitality really make us feel like we are special guests. the apartment is very clean, it is equipped with everything we need and kitchen has all needed to make reasonable dinner for family of 4. Location is also very convenience, short drive to supermarket. We were very happy with the stay. One of the best place we choose in Iceland.
This was a great spot for our last 2 nights in Iceland. It was like a home away from home, very relaxing. It had all the amentities you'd have at home.
10/10 highly recommended.
No doubt the best among all the accommodations of my 10-day Iceland trip.
The host was so nice, she came to us with a warm greeting and introduced the apartment even we had our check-in at 8pm. The apartment was clean, comfy, tidy and spacious. Not to mention the stunning river view when you look out from the window. I even had an evening run to enjoy the riverside.

Apartment is lower level of owner's home. Private entrance, well stocked with everything we needed. Owner was very easy to deal with and even offered to knock on the door if the Northern Lights were out (which they were!). Would absolutely stay there again if I'm ever back in Selfoss.

Lovely studio apartment looking out on the River. Kristin was wonderful and accommodating.
Nice having a kitchen to prepare breakfast and lunch since food in Iceland is pricey.
Selfoss the perfect start to start our adventure!!

Cozy apartment
Had a great one night stay at River Apartment. Had some difficulties with tv and could have used some instructions. Apartment was well equipped: coffee machine (with coffee and filters), toaster, even had some basic supplies (pasta etc). Sofa bed was good to sleep.
We really enjoyed our stay in River aprtment. The apartment was cute, clean, and had nice little touches that made it feel welcoming. It was comfortable with plenty of space, and the location worked out really well for getting around.
