Okay place for a one night stay as it is right in Reykjavik it made walking everywhere really easy. Our room was on the 3rd floor which was sweltering hot so we had to leave the windows open and then just listen to the city noise all night. It worked for one night.

On a very busy corner, and every street noise could be heard all night long. Sheets had a tear in them. The heat was up so high that it made it impossible to sleep with a sheet on.

We stayed here for one night, on a Saturday. Our room was on the 4th floor and faced west, towards the (non) setting sun. When we walked into the room it was uncomfortably warm. The heaters were not on, it was the greenhouse effect of a wall of windows facing the sun all day, even though the drapes were all pulled closed. We could open two windows slightly to let a bit of cooler air in, but had to keep the drapes completely closed, and cover the mirror with a towel because it was reflecting the sun into the room. This hotel is on a pretty busy street, with a bus route, and at least on a Saturday people were down on the street talking and shouting late into the night. Street cleaners must have cleaned every inch of the roadway during the night as the noise went on for a long time. The beds sagged a bit, so not the most comfortable, but not terrible. The drapes aren't quite close enough to the window to block out the light at night (some hotels are much better at this). The bedroom had a small sink, which was convenient since the bathroom were shared. The bathroom cleanliness was so so. The showers were not inviting, as the grout was moldy, see pictures. I guess you get what you pay for.
Dirty showers
Questionable cleaning and stability
Sufficient size for a night, but the heat from the full wall of windows was uncomfortable.

Stayed here for 2 nights for 4 person in a room. What I like about this place is that they have kitchen equipment that u can cook, easy access to restaurants and shopping in 5-10 mins walk There is flybus and gray line bus that goes to the airport in 3am in the morning that is just across the road; very convenient indeed. Customer service is excellent with friendly staff and very helpful.

The location of 101 Guesthouse is great. Walkable distance to lots of shops and restaurant on the Main Street of Reykjavik. The receptionist is so nice that she allows me to check in a bit earlier upon my arrival so that I can save time for sightseeing. The room is not spacious but enough for one or two nights stay.

The man on reception was very nice to deal with, both happy and helpfull. It isnt the quietest due to its location on a busy road. Overall for accommodation on a budget its great, id stay there again. Considering its a shared bathroom and seperate shower room and access to a shared kitchen iys supprisingly clean and tidy throughout.
