I want to give an objective review of this hostel.
First, the pros:
1. The price is excellent. I stayed for five nights for just over 2000 [currency, e.g., ISK], which is very reasonable considering the prices in Iceland.
2. The communal kitchen and bar are very spacious and bright, making cooking very convenient.
3. The location is central; it's easy to walk anywhere within 15 minutes, and there are bus stops nearby.
4. The hostel has a minimalist, modern design, and the facilities are relatively new. The individual bed curtains provide great privacy.
Now, a few areas for improvement:
1. There are a bit too few restrooms and showers, so sometimes you have to wait in line.
2. I really hope they could provide a female-only dorm, even if it's a multi-person room. My bed this time was near the door, and people were constantly coming and going in the middle of the night. Two guys snored loudly, which was incredibly disruptive, and the air quality also deteriorated. I was woken up three times in one night – it was a nightmare.
3. It would be good to separate the male and female bathrooms/showers. Having them mixed is indeed a bit unhygienic.
