Bus Hostel Reykjavík

Hmmm...one of those poor hostels you hear about. No proper blinds on the windows, people having sex in the shared dorm, etc

Excellent service and clean but noisy due to poor hotel design. People were arriving super late and leaving super early and it was too hard for them to be quiet - even with earplugs.

The price was great. The bus for trips and to the international airport started in front of the hostel.

There were 2 out of 6 bathrooms where nothing was broken. One had no door, one had no handle or lock for the door, and two had broken shower heads. Reviews from weeks ago mention the doors and nothing has been fixed. Management doesn’t seem to care much. Also, the pictures provided are out of date. The lobby has been remodeled and they removed the bar, essentially removing the major social aspect of the place. It’s in a weird location for walking, but you can make it downtown in about 20 minutes.

Lovely hostel, perfect location right at bus stations and near city centre. Wish that the kitchen was a little bigger as was a quite cramped at times and had to wait periods to cook dinner but aside from that everything was great.

It was good. Hostel was clean, kitchen and bathrooms in good condition....

Everything was fine, bathrooms were clean but room was quite dirty on the floors! Check-in easy and helpful, location is good.

The staffs were nice and friendly when checked-in. However, the facilities inside were horrible listed below: As the hostel located to the main coach stop, there's a lot of noise generated in every early morning from the engine. Peoples smoking outside at mid-night and chatting & laughing brought the noise to the room and woke me up even though I was wearing an ear-plug. Peoples slam the door every time they back and forth to the room in the morning. They even chatting inside the room in the mid-night even though there're peoples sleeping. During my stay, I noticed some of the shower rooms door was broken which in turn longer wait time when fully occupied. Not sure the hostel cleaning schedule but every time I found the bin was full and hairs in the basin. The shower holder was broken and you cannot put it back, low water pressure which you just have basic shower only, quite difficult to wash hair. In the communal area, there's always someone sleeping on the couch which is unfair to others for social chatting as my question is did they booked the hostel and why do they not sleep inside the room? In the kitchen, the microwave control wheel is nearly mal-function as you have to use a little trick and small push in order to adjust the time, not very convenience to use. The dining table always have some left-over & trash from the previous user. Overall my stay was not very pleasant except the location is good.

Great staff, great room and location.
