Disappointed in given wrong instructions to park and a construction site.
Good simple room.
The hotel is under construction and not just a little bit, be ready to step in a construction site and be ready to wake up at 8am with the beds vibrating from the construction team. We were told we could park the car in a location, i had the staff triple check it for me. This morning going back to my car i had 2 parking tickets (80€) on top of having paid for a parking that i apparently was not in. When asking a different staff member in the morning why they told me i could park there he told me « you should have known » very unbothered and rude. It is not the moment to go this hotel clearly …

Wouldn’t stay again but it did the job
The property is well located only a few minutes walk from much of the city
Don’t be fooled by their lack of update on booking.com they are undergoing extensive building work as are the surrounding properties. No bar, no restaurant on site and everything is several floors up. So difficult to find as there is no sign outside. They don’t disclose the lack of facilities until you already booked or even show up. Mattress was lopsided and I ended up sliding over not the most comfortable bed but the rooms were fine.

Sehr gut
Super Ausstattung mit genug Bädern, Föhn, Hygieneprodukte, Küchenzubehör etc. Es gab sogar kostenlose Snacks und Kaffeemaschine. Alle Betten hatten einen Vorhang und Abtrennung mit Steckdose und Licht. Die Aufenthaltsräume waren schön gestaltet.
Das Reinigungspersonal war irgendwie sauer und hat dauerhaft rumgemotzt

Good
The cleanliness and aesthetics too
Better parking instructions and options. Renovation work was on so entering was difficult and confusing.

Super gezellig hostel met ontspannen sfeer. Mooie kamers met veel faciliteiten.
We werden op het laatste moment geüpgraded naar een kamer met 6 bedden! Dit was super fijn. Kamer was mooi en schoon. Er waren veel douches en wc's. Het hostel was erg modern en gezellig ingericht :)
De wc's waren niet allemaal even schoon. Het was echt heel warm in het hostel, een beetje té warm, waren we niet gewend van IJsland ;)

투어만 한다+잠만 잘거다=여기입니다
위치 좋습니다 (호텔 바로 앞 풍경이 장난 아닙니다) 직원분들 친절하고, 투어만 하는 입장에서 잠만 잤던 터라 만족합니다.
가격을 생각한다면 무난해요

Accogliente in buona posizione ma spazi strettissimi
Aree comuni molto accogliente e colazione (a pagamento) molto abbondante e variegata
Dormitori da 6 strettissimi con pochissimo spazio per muoversi. Armadietti minuscoli.

Es war schön, aber eine Woche hätte ich in dem Hostel nicht ausgehalten.
Die Lage war extrem schön und perfekt! Der Blick auf die Berge war fantastisch!! Und direkt an der Stadt!
Es war sehr dreckig und hat sehr gestunken. Mein Schließfach hat nicht funktioniert und jeder hätte ran gekonnt. Die KEX-Tourbuchungsseite ist verglichen zu anderen sehr überteuert und der Guide war sehr unhöflich und leicht provozierend und rassistisch mir gegenüber. Fand ich für 120€ , die ich gezahlt habe, nicht so toll.
