Great QUIET location close enough to walk to bars and restaurants, but far enough away that you can sleep with the window open without being disturbed by noise from the bars or the Main Street. Rooms are cosy and affordable. Breakfast was really affordable (about $16 US, other hotels charged $46 US). I would stay here again!

Location very convenient to old harbor end of Reykjavik, and within walking distance of other big sights. Nice neighborhood for walking around in. Hotel staff very friendly. Convenient restaurant and bar on premises. Room very compact with somewhat inconvenient spaces to put luggage etc. Nice shower with very nice high end Icelandic herb shampoo, conditioner and soap. A real treat.

This was a cute hotel with a fantastic breakfast (definitely worth the $15 USD). I wish we had time to try their dinner! The rooms were small but had everything we needed and were super comfortable and clean. The location was also great - only 5 minutes from the main blocks of shops and the harbor. I preferred it - it felt like a homey neighborhood.

We arrived quite early and were greeted by friendly staff who did offer us the option of an early check in, as the room was ready, but for an additional fee. (If the room is already made up, this could have been waived). We passed on that and they were happy to look after our bags while we explored the harbour area. The room was good and the breakfast choice was excellent. Happy hour at the bar was also really good, with friendly and attentive staff. All round, an excellent hotel and location, with the town centre just a few mins walk away. Would stay again.
