Enjoyed my stay here. The hosts are very welcoming & helpful. Checkin is clear and also has Igdlo sign on building for easy find. Location is close to basically everything, and Bus 55, which saves over $25 round trip to KEF airport. The room and shared bathroom were always clean also. The rooms are small and the lighting not so bright, but overall it was fine, and a very good value for an expensive place like Iceland.

Excellent place to stay - more of a hostel than a hotel, but there are private rooms with shared bathrooms. Super clean in general, and good kicthen, even with dishwashers. Would stay again.

This is the best "budget" option by far. Very helpfull, friendly staff, great kitchen to use, quiet and clean rooms, nice garden area and walking distance to downtown/shops/Museums Coffee and tea is free and for 5 Euro there is a buffet style breakfast, which is great. Furniture is a bit "vintage", but everything is very clean, comfortable and practical. My go-to-guesthouse whenever I go to Reykjavic.

Great location !!

I really enjoyed my stay, didn’t like that I had to pay 5 euro for breakfast which was bread and jam or butter. Not eggs , fruits or sausage. Not worth it! But the place was cozy, but it was full and I didn’t have any place to sit in the dining area. Even after people finished eating they just sat there and talked. The staff was really nice and friendly. Location was great!! Very close to the bus terminal and the wharf. 45 mins from the airport.
