Cons: 1. This building is a former confectionery factory. You feel like the horror movie Saw 11, only in reality. Everywhere there are portraits of long-dead people, like in a cemetery. They are looking at you from everywhere. 2. Old, shabby furniture with elements of attributes of a touring circus. 3. Everything needs renovation. 4. The hairdryer doesn't work. 5. Paid towel 7 €. 6. There are no partitions in the shower room and you wash in groups of 5 people, just like in a public bathhouse. 7. Dirty. 8. There are a lot of people and they snore loudly around the clock, cough, talk, rustle bags and bags, slam doors, leave and come, beds constantly creak. 9. The feeling that you are in hell. It's impossible to sleep. 10. There is a charge for a locker with a lock. 11. There is no shampoo or shower gel. 12. The toilets are dirty. 13. You clean up your laundry. PROS: 1. There is a kitchen with all the appliances, although for two nights the neighbors drinked alcohol and screamed at the top of their lungs. 2. Cheap 3. Not far from the center 4. Wi-Fi

Hostel was in a good location, close to the centre of Reykjavík. The staff weren’t the friendliest upon arrival, and didn’t explain anything about the hostel, as was expected. The hostel wasn’t the cleanest either unfortunately, with the showers being quite unpleasant, though adequate. All in all I would recommend this location due to the price and location.

Location is perfect. It really close to the waterfront. But there is no hot water in late night.
