Description

Private bedroom in a warm family home on Reykjavík’s charming west side, ideally located between the University of Iceland and the city centre. Downtown Reykjavík, the seaside walking path, Grandi’s restaurants and exhibitions, cafés, a swimming pool, and several supermarkets are all within easy walking distance. Free street parking and good bus connections make the location especially convenient. The home is shared with a small number of housemates and offers a comfortable living room with a smart TV and large sofa, a fully equipped kitchen with dining area, two bathrooms (a guest WC and a main bathroom with shower), and a washing machine and dryer. All bedrooms in the home have private door locks. This room is located on the upper floor and offers a practical and comfortable setup for both living and studying. It is furnished with a 120 cm bed, an electric height-adjustable desk, an ergonomic office chair, and a large ThinkVision monitor (27–28”) with speakers and webcam, making it well suited for remote work or study. A drawer unit and a large wardrobe with drawers, mirror, and hangers provide generous storage space. The room is located on the same floor as the main bathroom, which many guests find convenient. Underfloor heating keeps the room warm and comfortable all year. Electricity, heating, Wi-Fi, and use of all shared areas, including the washer and dryer, are included. This room is a great choice for international or exchange students, master’s or PhD students, or anyone looking for a comfortable and respectful shared home close to both campus and the city....

How rent is calculated
Daily basis
This listing’s rent is calculated on a daily basis. For the first and last months of your stay, you’ll only pay for the exact number of days in your rental period — just like a hotel. We call this a Daily contract type. To confirm your rental, you’ll need to pay one month’s rent in full. Any excess rent you pay for the first month will be subtracted from the next month’s rent.
Cancellation policy

Strict cancellation

If you cancel:

  • Within 24 hours of confirmation – Full refund of first month’s rent
  • After 24 hours of confirmation – No refund

How to rent this place

If you're ready to rent, here’s what to do:

  1. Select your dates to check availability.
  2. Click Apply to rent.
  3. Fill in a quick rental application and send an intro message.
  4. Add your supporting documents and payment details to pre-authorize a potential payment.
  5. If the landlord accepts your rental application, we’ll collect payment to confirm your stay. If they don’t, your payment will be automatically canceled.

At HousingAnywhere, in-person viewings are not supported — so everyone has an equal chance to rent, no matter where you are in the world. To help you make an informed decision, we recommend:

  1. Messaging the landlord on HousingAnywhere to ask any questions.
  2. Requesting more photos, video tours, or floor plans.
  3. Read up on Tenant Protection to learn how you’re covered if something goes wrong.

Use the ‘Message landlord’ button to start a secure conversation on our platform. You can ask questions, discuss terms, and safely exchange documents.

Keeping your conversation on HousingAnywhere protects your privacy and helps you avoid scams. All your messages are also saved in one place for easy access and as a record of your agreements.

Once your rental is confirmed, we’ll share the landlord’s contact info so you can arrange your move-in.

After your rental is confirmed on HousingAnywhere, you and the landlord will receive each other’s contact details. You can then contact them outside our platform, or continue messaging on HousingAnywhere. You can pay future months’ rent and other rental costs using our payment request feature.

Tenant Protection is our service to help you rent with peace of mind. We hold all payments you make through our platform before move-in, including the first month's rent and any deposit. After you arrive, you have 48 hours to check that the place is as you expected. We only send your money to the landlord if everything is okay.
