Can’t sleep at night due to the curtains not fixing properly. Told the staff if there is a way to fix it, but just brush us off that no way. I would just like to have a tape to cover the lights due to the 20+ daylight here. You should have better curtains, one that could block the lights! Can’t sleep for 2 nights.

What a wonderful stay right by the water. Highly recommend!

It was clean, comfortable and well located!

I loved the atmosphere. The space on the main level was fun and unique. The decor throughout was great. The room and bathrooms were clean. My door knob kept sticking and I got locked out of my room at 4AM but luckily a room mate was awake and let me in. The halls and stairs felt run down. The kitchens were ok but could have been better. Only a couple pots and pans and they were in use. The fridge was jammed packed and super unorganized. I would have liked to see at least a toaster oven for baking.

Excellent location and great place for solo travellers to make friends

The room was clean and the staff were extremely lovely and helpful. I only stayed 1 night in a 4 bed dorm. I did not use the shower facilities so can not speak to that.

Very nice location, clean, comfortable room, great breakfast. I would happily stay here again, and would love to come back to Iceland!

I booked a double room but received a twin room. There's insufficient space to hang stuff. With basic blinds that are not blackout curtain, be prepared to get woken up at 5am by the sunlight. If not, by the noisy neighbours which the rooms don't seem to be noiseproof. Noticeable stench of urine in male washroom. The shower lacked place to hang towel. Fortunately there's a study table and chair in the shower room so at least I can put my stuff there. There's simply no hostel vibe unlike other hostels in town. The bar/reception area is ok, with plenty of seating and outlets. No issue with WiFi whether it's in the reception area or in bedroom. I do like their breakfast options with plenty to select, but it's very pricey (at 2700 ISK). And good luck about finding a free or paid parking spot nearby.

I have never stayed in a hostel before, but this was a great base located centrally in Reykjavik. Lots of great coffee shops, tattoo shops and bars/restaurants nearby. You can get breakfast and coffee at KEX, too, which was convenient for one of the mornings we had to head out early. The bus stops for excursions were also within a 10-minute walk away. Overall, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
