The kitchen facilities were great, with a nice coffee machine and everything you need to cook your own meals. the staff was friendly and helpful, providing useful information about nearby attractions. the location was convenient, being close to the university and within walking distance of the city center.
The room was small for two adults with luggage, making it a bit cramped. the hotel was not located in the city center, so it took some time to walk there.

I had a wonderful stay at this charming hostel in Reykjavik. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring that all my needs were met. The rooms and bathrooms were impeccably maintained and spotlessly clean. I especially enjoyed the communal kitchen, which had all the necessary appliances for cooking my own meals. The hostel's central location made it easy for me to explore the downtown area and visit nearby attractions like the National Museum of Iceland. The free WiFi in the beautifully decorated communal area was an added bonus. I had a great experience at this hostel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a more unique and interactive accommodation option.

The facilities were very clean and well-maintained, making for a comfortable stay. the breakfast offered a wide variety of options, including cheeses, meats, fruit, cereals. the hostel's location was convenient, with a bus stop right outside and close proximity to the bus terminal. This made it easy to explore the city and travel to other destinations.
The shared bathrooms could use some improvement. the water tends to get all over the floor, and there is a need for more hooks and shelves to keep clothes, shoes, and towels dry.

The hostel offers clean and comfortable rooms, which is great for a budget stay. The availability of multiple kitchens for self-catering is a convenient feature. The location is key, as it is within walking distance of the city center, the bus station, and the university campus. This makes it easy to explore the city and travel to other destinations.
The rooms can be small and shabby, which may not be ideal for longer stays. The shared bathrooms and toilets at the end of the corridor can be inconvenient.

Fantastic old-school hostel in a prime university location. Great facilities, friendly staff, and a true blend of class and charm. Best value for accommodation in the city, with clean rooms, comfy beds, and modern washrooms. Convenient kitchen for home-cooked meals. The shared lounge is spacious and has free wifi. a really nice and clean hostel with a great retro vibe.
Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

Friendly staff, clean rooms and bathrooms, well-stocked kitchen, nicely decorated communal area with free WiFi. Short walk to city center and National Museum, convenient pick up for bus tours. A great alternative to traditional hotels with more local interaction.

I had a great stay at the hostel. the staff, including Student, were very helpful and made my experience enjoyable. the location was ideal, with easy access to the city centre and a beautiful park nearby. the shared bathroom was incredibly clean and well-maintained. the rooms were also clean and equipped with everything I needed. I was impressed with the free wifi, which was reliable throughout my stay. the breakfast offered a variety of delicious and fresh options, including local and continental products. I appreciated the extra effort from the staff when I had to leave early one day, as they prepared sandwiches and drinks for me before 6 am. Cons: Nothing, it was perfect! 😊.

The hostel was in a prime location, just a stone's throw away from the city center, the national museum, and a lovely park. We really enjoyed the convenience of being able to explore the city and its attractions without having to travel far. the room we stayed in was comfortable and clean, providing us with a cozy place to rest after a long day of sightseeing. We also appreciated the well-kept kitchen, which made it easy for us to prepare our own meals.
One negative aspect we encountered was the lack of clear parking options. Although we managed to find free parking nearby, it would have been helpful to have clear information about whether we needed to pay or not.
