Pros:

The owners/staff are absolutely wonderful. The place is super clean, has comfortable vibe, places to hang out in the lobby. Plenty of parking. Breakfast is the usual - assortment of breads, deli, hard boiled eggs, yogurts with many cereals, fruit juices, good coffee. Free coffee and tea at all times.

Cons:

Hot water smells of sulfur. (I guess that's not unusual in Iceland?) Shower curtain too short, you have to be very careful when showering to not flood the bathroom.

We had a quadruple room, and 2 beds were up in the loft, and it was pretty warm up there. I would also appreciate more effective curtains.

Pros:

El personal muy amableby muy atentos. La zona común muy cómoda, con sofás, zona de juegos con pin pon... café disponible durante toda la estancia, y a media tarde te ponen bizcocho y galletas, lo cual me parece un gran detalle para finalizar el día.
Está muy cerca del centro, así que se puede ir caminando a ver la ciudad completa.

Cons:

La habitación un poco vieja, pero estaba limpia. Y no tenía enchufe junto a la cama.

A very pleasant stay overall!
Pros:

The location is excellent
supermarkets, restaurants, and cafés are all nearby and easily walkable. It’s also a lovely area for an evening walk around the city.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was very good. We also enjoyed the common areas where you could relax, have coffee, play some table tennis, and just sit and chat after a long day of exploring Iceland.

Cons:

Hot water kettle in room

Prima budget optie
Pros:

Prima prijs kwaliteitverhouding voor Reykjavik. De kamers waren schoon. Ontbijt was best goed.

Cons:

Je zit wel een beetje van het centrum af, daar moet je met de auto naartoe rijden.
Wij vonden de kamers behoorlijk krap en best wel verouderd. Het personeel kwam een beetje ongeïnteresseerd over.

Gera vieta apsistoti Reykjavike už nebrangiai:)
Pros:

Jaukus, ekonominės klasės viešbutis. Viskas atitiko lūkesčius: personalas, kambariai, parkingas. Maloni staigmena: visą dieną vaišina šviežiu pyragu prie kavos/arbatos. Patogi vieta: galima lengvai pėsčiomis pasiekti senamiestį, kitus lankytinus objektus. Pusryčiai geri.
