It's a very small room, but Iceland is expensive and this is a great deal for the price. The bathroom on our floor was clean and provided shampoo and soap. It's a 10-minute walk from old town city central, which is fabulous. Extremely safe area. The front desk staff were kind, friendly, and super helpful. There is a laundry room in the building (they give you free laundry detergent and let you use the machines for free -- literally, I'm not kidding), and they have lockers you can rent for very cheap to hold your valuables. Parking is free and close by (it's part of a university campus, and the overflow lot is a 3-minute walk). Overall, a very terrific and affordable option.
Very simple room with shared bathroom, dated but clean. Expensive for what it offers, like most accommodation in Reykjavik. Checkin/checkout was efficient but the least friendly I experienced in Iceland. It was fine for me for 1 night and I did discover a fantastic bakery for breakfast a couple of blocks west of the university, near a swimming pool.
A walking path to the foot bridge to cross over to the other side where there is a subway/gas station. A cross walk to the park and past it to the church. We had a private bathroom room. Clean. They let us borrow an USB outlet plug since we did not have europlugs chargers. They provide a city map, called a cab for us, nice laundry room, and answered our questions the best they could. I recommend the Student Hostel. Thank you
So happy that we chose to stay at the student hostel. I highly recommend this place. Clean and comfortable rooms. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Loved the separate common area for hanging out in. Super convenient to downtown and the bus terminal. They even have large storage lockers for rent. I would definitely stay at the student hostel, again.
great place easy walking distance into town very clean shared kitchen plenty of space excelent cooktops fridges cupboards very clean canteen food great and drinks half the price in town bus stop out front Great place to stay staff very good
We spent there 5 nights with a shared bathroom. However, it did not matter as everything was extremely clean and user-friendly. Hostels all over the should be as clean as this one. I RECOMMEND GOING THERE!
