Parking situation was miserable, and was one of our biggest daily expenses. Staff was wonderful and kind. As far as the room, we got what we paid for. Cots and a shared bathroom. Shower smells like sulfur, and is very small. Breakfast and parking are not included and expensive, but location is fantastic. Overall 3 stars, people were nice and it was generally what we signed up for. I’d recommend bringing shower shoes and an extra towel for the floor!

I rated a 1 star because I had to cancel for a medical reason and no refund was given. I never went here so I can't comment on any things but customer service. When I booked, I did not see the note which said they do not give any refunds. I broke my arm about a month before going to Iceland and asked if I could cancel my reservation and receive a refund. Even tho I told them that the main reason I was going to Iceland to ride the amazing Icelandic horses and go on a 4 day riding tour, and my arm would not be healed in time for me to go on this trip. A medical note would note persuade them, and as a result I am out over $800.00 CDN. I caution you to look at the fine print to see their no refund policy. I won't be able to return to Iceland until next year, and I know now not to book with them. It might be a very nice place but I can't comment on that.

I guess I really didn't know what a 'Guesthouse' was in the Icelandic sense. This is a hostel where you can get your own room. I had a single room. It had no TV, no temperature control, no adequate bedding, with the wind howling it is not quiet, etc. It was clean and since I was only there 2 nights, it was adequate, nothing more. No one is at the desk the vast majority of the time. The location is good. Perhaps by Icelandic Guesthouse standards this is fine but by most others I would say it is not.

The first two nights all fine. The last two nights not as good. No hot water on my floor. One filthy toilet was not cleaned during my two night stay there. The managers were not at their desk. I had to complain through an intercom system. All the shower cabins are rusty and require replacement.

Great budget hotel in a great location. Only issue I’d say is it doesn’t appear the greatest from the outside and you might wonder where you’re going but it was perfectly acceptable inside
