Solo stay

Staff were super helpful with swapping my booking round so that I could have a bottom bunk after the first night as I struggled with the ladder due to an injury.

Stayed with partner

This was a very clean hostel. They had a kitchen you could use and there was a bar and restaurant. Very convenient to the central area of the city. This was our first hostel, so I was concerned about bath facilities however there were sufficient that we never had to wait. I would stay there again.

Nice place to stay. We liked having our own room and bathroom. It was a small safe place to be for the nice and super convenient going into downtown Reykjavík.

There was a kitchen on each floor, there was an elevator, and there was a laundry room if you need to do laundry (for a fee). The bathrooms should be checked regularly by the staff to ensure they are tidy and that toilet paper is replenished.
