Guest review

5.0

Einigermaßen günstiges Hostel in einer guten Lage sehr nah am Stadtzentrum. Personal ist sehr freundlich.

− Kaffee kostet extra. In der Küche fehlen die Basics (Essig, Öl, Salz, Pfeffer) wodurch kochen nicht wirklich möglich ist. Die Zimmer sind in die Jahre gekommen und nicht sehr schön.

Cher pour une chambre d'étudiant mais abordable pour un hébergement en Islande....

8.0

il s'agit d'une chambre d'étudiant d'une quinzaine de m2 avec deux lits séparés et d'un lavabo. Les toilettes, les douches et la cuisine sont communs. La cuisine spacieuse et bien équipée permet de préparé un repas en toute tranquillité. En juillet le campus est quasi désert. La cafète du campus permet de prendre un petit déjeuner.

− Comme a peu prés partout en Islande, le parking est payant en journée....

Nicest hostel I’ve ever been to

10.0

The most comfortable hostel I’ve ever been to Brand new rooms with private bathrooms Large common spaces with a good kitchen for each room cluster Very welcoming and helpful staff

− We were there during the weekend so it did not impact us, but parking in the street is not free during the weekend
