Worth the dirty feeling
Pros:

The hotel was in a great location close to town and it had parking which is a commodity. The room was large and the beds were comfy.

Cons:

The room did not feel clean. It was old and felt dirty but the price and parking make up for this issue.

Good central spot in Reykjavik - Quirky and friendly
Pros:

Good location, only 4 blocks from rainbow street and a 15 minute walk to Bus Stop 1 for tours. Lovely seating areas and cosy, quirky bar. The staff were all fabulous and breakfast options good.

Cons:

Our only criticism was the size of the shower room. We were in a junior suite (206) and although we had a room with just a bath and then a shower room with toilet, they were both very narrow. There was plenty of room to have made them a bit bigger but they felt squeezed in and very tight to use.
