Wifi en hygiëne op orde brengen. Serieuze zaak.
Pros:

Grootte van de kamer en andere ruimten. Mooi en goed ingericht

Cons:

De wifi op de slaapkamer was slecht: die viel regelmatig uit, het signaal was veel te zwak.
In de slaapkamer was er een onbedekt stopcontact bij het bed waardoor ik een schok kreeg.
In de douche boven liep het water niet weg door vieze haren en de slang lekte ook fors.

Pros:

Ampia stanza da letto, ambienti caldi, bagni grandi e molto puliti. Macchinetta del caffè a disposizione degli ospiti, velocità del check in, comoda posizione vicino a molti servizi.

Cons:

La cucina sporchissima. È vero che spesso è anche colpa della maleducazione di alcuni ospiti che lasciano sporco, ma in questo caso tutti i pensili e i piani di appoggio erano unti e pieni di manate. A mio avviso l’ambiente viene solo riordinato ma non igienizzato correttamente.

Bonitas vistas
Pros:

Las vistas desde la habitación y los servicios comunes

Cons:

Que el acceso a la habitación era por una escalera de caracol muy estrecha. Y la puerta de la habitación común solo tenía una cortina como separación con el resto del alojamiento

Beautiful place
Pros:

Beautiful inside and outside, nice rooms, spotless, view from the kitchen is awesome

Cons:

We received instructions only when we arrived tired and pretty late at the hostel-it would be better to send them at least one day before. Sent few messages to hosts, even called-no reply ever. All parking in front of building was busy, there was no internet - started working later at night.

아이슬란드에서는 흔치 않은 실망스런 숙소
Pros:

딱히 없음. 아! 무료 커피.

Cons:

아이슬란드에서 2주 머물며 처음으로 실망한 숙소다.
방은 매우 작은데 대신 어디 쉴 공용 공간도 없다.
화장실도 한 층에 두개밖에 없어 계속 기다려야만 했고,
그와중에 한곳은 샤워기 마저 온전치 않았다.
주방에는 키친타월같은 소모품 조차 넉넉하게 구비해놓지 않아 매우 불편했다.

아이슬란드 다른 지역에선 이곳의 반가격 밖에 안하는 호스텔도 다 여기보다 잘돼있었는데 말이다.

Top!
Pros:

Das Hostel war toll. Die Zimmer waren total gemütlich und unseres hatte sogar Meerblick. Wir wurden herzlich von der Besitzerin empfangen und uns wurde das gesamte Hostel gezeigt. Bäder und Küche waren sauber und gut ausgestattet. Wir haben nichts zu meckern :)

Clean comfy
Pros:

Lovely property

Cons:

You are not informed ahead of time that check-in in is at a Cafe around the corner and a couple of blocks down in green yellow building. Also skeleton keys are used for the rooms which are hard to use at times
