There is no staff, but the key codes work well, and the coffee is sometimes working. And the place is well located close to the center of fun in the capital city. And close to bus stop number one, which was super convenient for tours.Highly recommend this place.My room was cozy and comfortable, and the wash room was close by!

Friendly staff, clean room and bathrooms. Conveniently located for walking in downtown Reyjavik. Only issues were running out of supplies in RR (shower gel, toilet tissue) and in coffee room (cups, milk) in the morning. The staff did take care of these issues when you sent them a message (since the staff wasn’t around).

So this was a fantastic property. It was centrally located to just about everything in Reykjavík. It was more than a hostel, and the private rooms were well worth the price. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip.

While the individual rooms were clean we found the shared bathrooms/showers dirty. We did not use them to shower. It was like staying in a youth hostel. We are not young. A good hotel for people on a strict budget We loved the proximity to central Reykjavik its city center just outside the hotel

The chief virtue of this hotel is its location. It's one of the least expensive places to stay in the old city, but you basically get what you pay for. The rooms are small, the bathrooms are shared, the cleaning and upkeep are minimal, and the staff are non-existent. You are basically paying for its proximity to the center of town more than anything else.
