Great place. The staff was helpful, friendly and they had safes allowing to sleep peacefully. I just wish they had more common areas.

I stayed in a shared female dorm, I felt very safe and the other occupants were very quiet and considerate. The room could have been cleaner but it wasn't too bad. The shared bathroom was clean. Buying food out in Reykjavík is very expensive so having the communal kitchen and dining area was very handy. I'd stay here again, it's good value and very close to the centre of town. Thank you 😊

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
All of the staff were very kind and friendly and super helpful whenever I had questions about anything. The shared bunk room I was in filled up by the third night but everyone was as quiet and respectful as you could reasonably expect. The location is great and very convenient for walking or taking a scooter anywhere downtown, and the free parking in back is crucial. I hope to return!
