    Shared rooms were way bigger then any hostel I've ever been to, and there was a sink with soap in the room. Bathrooms were very clean and a towel was provided. There's a locked room where luggages can be left before checking in and after checking out. For smaller items, there are lockers with personal keys. Staff was kind and ready to help.

    - Bed wasn't clean, I noticed sand-like things on the middle part of bed on the sheet - Blanket is very thin so I felt quite cold in the room luckily I only stay for few hours before my flight. - Chemical/paint smell in the corridor near my toom. - Shared bathroom isn't very clean and occupied 70% time. - Luggage storage can't be use between 22-7 no other locker in room - I chose a more expensive "single bed in female dorm" option over a cheaper "bunkbed in 6person female dorm" option because I'd like to rest well before my early flight in the morning. On my check-in I sae that I was given a bunkbed but no one was on top at that moment so I thought they gave me a bunkbed to stay on my own with no one on top and I asked the lady who checked me in if I will be the only one sleeping here which she responded yes. So I left my luggages and went out visit the city. When I came back I saw someone's belongings are on the upper bed so I went to the lady and asked then she changed the words saying that the more expensive "Single bed" option is also a bunkbed shared with someone else which doesn't make any sense and give me a lecture of 40 minutes about "they don't make their listings but satellite does it for them so it's not their fault but the platform mistake it" which I high doubt but didn't say anything because I didn't want to stay there all day. I think what really happened is there was another request after I checked in so they sold the upper bed even it was supposed to be empty since I booked "single bed" option. There was also 8 person in the room instead of 6. She ended up give me 3 euro refund with lots of anger attitude which took another 25 minutes to bring to me. At night, the lady on top was shaking the bed and making noises every few minutes for more than 1.5hours and I couldn't fall asleep at all. Ended up sleeping probably for 40 minutes before getting up at 3.

    - Location is good 15 minutes walk from bus stop - There's a hand-washing sink in the room which was convenient

    Was not in the main building but in the annex which was really not comfortable and I didn't feel secure there. I didn't like my stay there unfortunately.

    The location, not far from downtown and Hallgrímskirkja.
