There are a few things which needs to be improved.....breakfast could have scrambled eggs and some baked beans. There should be more options on the coffee/espresso machine. Housekeeping should be more quiet and mindful about guests sleeping in and the amount of noise they are making.

Great location and staff
The hotel was in a fantastic location. Staff were great and very helpful. Room was small by North American stds but bed was extremely comfortable and bathroom was good. Would highly recommend

8/10 Very good

The location is so handy, within minutes you're on the main streets for food, shopping etc. The harbour and museums are all within walking distance, under 30mins, and the bus station is under 15 mins walk away. Also the bus stop #8 is only a couple of mins away so can be used for the northern lights pick up & other tours along with the bus to the station. The single room was very basic but it was the cheapest option & it can get loud outside as it's a busy street with Hallgrímskirkja across the road. Would still recommend it.

Fantastic location!!! The room was extremely cramped… very challenging for 2 people to do anything other than sit in bed. Even accessing the washroom was awkward and uncomfortable. Reminded me of a ferry/airplane bathroom. Staff were friendly and you can literally walk anywhere in Reykjavik…. Proximity to free parking was a huge bonus!

6/10 Good

Pros: Excellent location, friendly staff, and tasteful decor! Cons: We were on the top floor (4th) and the slanted ceilings significantly cut into the usable space. I'm not sure if it would be the case or not for lower floors, but I had to wear ear plugs to sleep because of how loud the wind was at the top of the building. There are no elevators, but the staff offered to help carry luggage up the stairs. The main downside was the bathroom. It was almost unusable because of how small it was and the makeshift nature of the shower. It was literally only about 15 inches deep, with hardly enough room to stand, and the wooden doorframe to the bathroom was rotten as a result of literally being inside the tiny 15 inch shower area.

The location is perfect. Our fourth floor room was small and the slanted ceilings made it feel very cramped. There is no elevator but the staff are kind and helpful, quickly offering to bring our luggage up for us. 24/7 free coffee and a cozy lounge enhance the stay. Free parking is tricky but once the area quiets down in the evening it is easy enough to get. Would stay here again!

Excellent location and cute rooms. Sitting area at the top of the stairs on the the third floor with a view of the church was our favorite part. Only downside is that parking can be difficult and the nearby street parking is the most expensive zone.

Very clean but dark and felt like a prison cell. No rails on stairs (no elevator). Had to carry luggage up and down stairs. Great, friendly staff.

The staff was welcoming and helpful. The room was adequate for a night but a bit small, especially the bathroom for a longer stay.
