Very cosy, clean and safe. 5mins walk to main center and a great little breakfast was included which an was unexpected bonus! We had a modern, cute, little apartment with a kitchenette if we wanted to cook, and nice bathroom...couldn't ask for much more! Highly recommend the stay!

the hostel is a family run business which gives it a lovely friendly feel. We were upgraded to a flat with its own kitchen and bathroom facilities for the same price as a room with a shared bathroom just because we were staying for 6 nights!

The family of the guesthouse was very friendly and the rooms were cozy and everything in the house clean and neetly decorated. The guestmother was also very flexible to whatever needs one might have had - like luggage or check-in and -out time etc.

Maybe it's because we were there in November and it wasn't too busy, infact we were pretty much the only people is the place!! But dont let this put you off. This is a great guesthouse with very friendly and kind staff - the owner even took us on a free guided tour of the city before we checked in!! The facilities are only basic, as are the rooms, but to be honest Reykjavik, and Iceland, has so much to see and do you won't spend that much time in your hestel anyway!! Overall a very safe hostel with a good location (directly opposite where the buses come in from Keflavik) and definatley worth a visit!!

The woman who owned the hostel was so nice and she was really helpful and concerned that we were having a good time. The facilities were clean and the hostel was close to the downtown area. I loved that we had wireless internet that was reliable and free. It was very quiet, so those looking for a young party hostel would be disappointed, but there is enough partying in Reykjavik. We really liked the hostel.
