Stayed here for a week, no complaints.

This was an awesome small hostel, one of the best I've ever stayed at. It's obvious whoever designed it has been a backpacker themselves as small things like free lockers (if you have a padlock (you can rent on if you don't, but who doesn't have a couple on their zippers on their bags?) are located outside of the dorm rooms. Important as someone looking for things isn't noisily doing that in room with others. Likewise the toilets and showers (all seperate individual stand alones, I think there were about six showers, and probably the same amount of toilets, were not like poorly designed dorm rooms, inside the dorm room. This meant if you wanted to get up earlier in the morning and use them, you didn't have to worry about who was complaining they had an early flight needing access, as there's plenty to choose from. They were high quality showers with both a normal showerhead and one on a hose you could switch between. The only thing I would have maybe liked was a few hooks in the change room part of the shower. The bed was really comfortable. I liked how they have this brilliant idea of giving you a magnet with a letter on it that you put on the upper or lower bunk that you have chosen, so any later arrival know that bed is taken, and two if a tour company or someone rings and leaves a message they know which bed is yours to leave a note on. These are the kind of things that only someone who has been backpacking, walked into a room and can't tell which bed is avai

The bedroom was clean and carpeted. That was the best. The reception is the same for the bar so it seems like they are not at hand all the time.

Good location near several good foot paths along the coast. At 4 AM the fire alarm started blazing waking everyone up with no apparent trigger.

I really liked how convenient it was located for me. Very quiet and excellent roommate.

Liked the price and the adjoining cafe, I had the best meals in Reykjavik there. Cafe staff were very nice

The staff and other tenants were nice. I'd stay here again.

Very accommodating when dealing with a misunderstanding on my part, although a little hard to contact (via what’s app).

close to places i want to visit

Very clean and quiet hostel. Location is a 25-minute walk to the downtown area, but there is lots to do in the west that is more locals-oriented. The public pool is about a 6 minute walk away, and there's a fantastic bakery around the corner from the hostel.

No luggage storage and no reception.

Clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff. There were a few shower rooms so that was nice. Nice to have a communal kitchen available but the kitchen space was slightly messy and dirty.

The room and bed were clean and comfy, the staff was helpful and gave us advice for the tour. The only thing that could be concerned is that it is not located near downtown. Fortunately, there is a bus stop just cross the road and it took only 5mins to downtown. It is a great experience to stay near the local instead of some tourism places.

Clean place a 20 minute beautiful walk to the center of the city, right off the bus stop (which if you get a city card is super easy to use). Prices are about average for the area (which is pretty expensive, but that's just Iceland). I would definitely stay here again!

It's cheap but the bunk beds are really not comfortable. they're weak and unstable and therefore shake a lot so if the person below or above you moves the slightest bit it squeaks and shakes and wakes you up. The lockers are tiny. you can't even fit in a tiny less than cabin size suitcase in it. It's not located within the center of reykyavik. you need to take a bus or drive unless you're willing to walk 30 min in the cold.
