Designated parking area for the hostel. Very walkable to the downtown area. They made sure I had all the information I needed to check-in during their off hours so I wouldn't be locked out. Wonderful place to stay.

This hostel was great overall. Very clean. Convenient location. Great view of the church from the common room/kitchen. The only two negatives are that there is no staff at the office in the morning to talk to if you wanted to see if you could have an early checkin if the room is ready. The other is that it is slightly noisy. You can hear groups going in and out when they are in the hallway. But I would return again!

Baron’s hostel was amazing for the most part. The only issues I had with it was the elevator is the only access point but at one point the elevator broke/ needed maintenance so accessing the building was difficult. The other thing was the smell was a little disturbing but overall it was a great place and easy to walk around and have as a living access point in Iceland!

Sahima

Location is excellent thats why i stayed there for the 2nd time. But this time my experince was terrible. Lot of people..bathrooms were nasty, not really clean, rarely will find any stuff member. If you reprot to any issue they dont care. My phone charger and some small items went missing as housekeeping took them. I had a buy all these items which cost me extra money and nothing is cheap in Iceland.

Simple, but clean and nice. I guess it is good value for money in Reykjavik. Would have been practical with some more furniture, for instance a chair, small table and some hangers for clothes.

Typical Hostel setup

Typical hostel, but hotel prices (welcome to Iceland). Bare minimum in rooms. Shared bathrooms/toilets also pretty basic. No place for clothing, hooks broken off. Shared kitchen with everything needed. Not really any lounge area.

Check in was very easy. Chrck out was difficult. Nobody was at the reception so all persons who want to check out write papers with name and check out time and hope that this is ok for the hostel. Breakfast was great.

Warm and convenient

I really enjoyed my stay. I loved having my own, personal space for sleeping and it served with my active plans for Iceland. The morning breakfast was unexpected but so wonderful as well. There were four bathrooms and two three showers so never had any issues with being able to use. Also, this was so convenient being a 15 min walk from BSI terminal and a five minute walk to bus stop 8.
