There was a large kitchen with everything. The showers were bigger than normal. The room we were in (5 beds) was comfortable and spacious. Easy to find and lots of parking. Check-in and check-out were made easy. Heating in the room worked fine.

The best hostel i have stayed in. Like I mean best ever, seriously. First of all, the bed was comfortable. The sheets were clean and they smelled very fresh. Spacious rooms with big windows and great curtains that make the room completely dark if you want it. The common area also very spaciuos, plenty of chairs and tables, have a lot of sockets to charge your phone or other devices. Very well equipped - there are two TVs, computer, dozens of board games. The same goes for the kitchen, it has everything you need, there are two microwave ovens, regular oven, two big fridges. The whole common area is decorated with beautiful pictures of Icelandic nature, it gives a place really nice vibe. On the top of all that, this hostel has the best bathrooms I’ve ever seen in a place like this. Each toilet and shower is in completely separated room with normal door, completely opposite to what I got used to in hostels.

Excellent facilities, unique guesthouse on a beautiful property with Icelandic horses literally next to the front door. The owner was also extremely friendly.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    It's a self check-in hostel. You have supermarkets, gas stations, pharmacy, bakeries and anything you need close by. I had a private room with a small bed and a sink, which was very convenient. The kitchen was big with all the necessary equipment. It was very quiet at night, maybe because there weren't many other guests around.
