This hostel was great, the rooms were small but clean and tidy and warm for a winter in Iceland. Very rarely did I have to wait to use the restroom. The cafe below is super convenient and the food is delicious. No complaints

Verified traveller

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
After arriving to check in they could not find my reservation even though I had my confirmation and receipt of payment. They had to call another office who put them on hold to see where was my reservation. They do not disclose that guests have to rent a towel for a few, seriously even that's not provided. Please do yourself a favor and book elsewhere I will not recommend this place.

Verified traveller

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was too small for two people (as wide as bed was) and for our stuff. There was a window sill which was in bad condition. It had got water damage and was moldy. In common rooms were untidy floors and WC. Shower hasn't been cleaned properly for months. There was black mold in the shower enclosure. Stuff were friendly though and there was beautiful and great bakery downstairs in the same building.

Ontzettend schoon. Fijn café ernaast waar we lekker gegeten hebben. Alleen heel onhandig dat er helemaal niemand bereikbaar is in geval van nood. Ver van stadscentrum en ver van vliegveld.

Trevligt ställe som kan bli bättre
Trevligt ställe, städade rum relativt nytt och fräscht. Det finns ingen ansvarig personal att prata med utan enbart barpersonalen de har dock fullt upp med baren. De gemensamma utrymmena städas sporadiskt, så hur rent det är beror på hur väl gästerna tar hand om utrymmena. Vi hade problem med en störande gäst och där verkade personalen lätt handfallen i vad de skulle göra.
