I like how the rooms are large, compared to standard Nordic hotels we have stayed at. It might be a little confusing to find. But Iceland people are very helpful. Use their actual address in finding it, not what Google maps default to (makes you go thru the back door). Closest Bus Stop is Bus Stop 1. Once you got your bearings, it is in a very convenient locations, close to everywhere you want to be in Reykjavik.

Overall good experience with this hotel. It was quiet which I loved and clean for the most part. The balcony was not so much clean and my coffee cup has some coffee residue still in it. They staff were nice. This hotel is also very small which I also enjoyed. I really didn’t come much in contact with other guests though.

Perfect location and amazing price! Staff are so friendly and gave amazing local recommendations, rooms were clean and spacious. Some reviews said it was noisy from outside but we could barely hear it and slept great even with our room facing out. They also provided a sleep kit (eye mask and earplugs) which we didn’t need but it was a nice touch! Super cute decor. The bar seemed closed every night but I’m sure if you asked they would serve.
