Great location and price
Perfect for my needs, great location between downtown and old town. Room was clean and well presented, check in was easy, recommended for a short stay but some may prefer private bathrooms for a longer stay

Great place to stay in Reykjavik if you’re traveling on a budget. Basic room, but if you’re only there to sleep like I was, it’s enough. Shared bathroom but very spacious and clean. Excellent location in the old town, the main things to do/see are in a 15 minute walk radius.
