4/10 Fair
Just not the best all around. Hard to check in. Rooms were odd. No tv in room. Breakfast was down the street. And it was ok at best.

Great place if you need a room for the night. This is a 2 star hotel. It is very basic and an afforyolace to stay. The breakfast is awesome though! If you don't have high standards this a good place to stay.

Breakfast was good, maybe the best part of this property. Shower was old and gross. Guest room and breakfast room are very dark. Probably by keeping it dark, they can hide some dirtiness of the property? There’s a reason why it’s super affordable compared to other places around the area.

First I got the wrong room, which can happen, but then, the new room I got had a big cloak problem, and the smell was horrible.
The rooms are more than old and not recommended at all.
I seem this hotel is just used for laundering money (look up the owner)

The building and rooms are old. They are renovated, but in a thick coat of paint over cracks in the wall type renovations. The lighting was horrible, even with all the lights turned on. The shared bathrooms aren’t that nice either, and the toilets somehow managed to be dirty every time I had to use it. The only good thing about this place was the breakfast.

This is about a 12min walk to the edge of downtown. It is still within a lively area of hotels and restaurants. They have tried to update the interior which is fine, but it is a bit damp and has carpets in the main hallways. Heads-up they do not have a front desk or admin staff on site but they are very responsive through WhatsApp if you have any issues. I had to message them a couple times and they responded a d helped immediately! The single rooms are small but you get your own bathroom which is nice. There are couches and lounge area as well as a kitchen on the second floor. It is a reasonably priced place to stay and easy to access. Breakfast included was just amazing.

The hotel listed is very misleading and images shows private bathroom and photos that represent a modern feel to the room. In person however it is a more-so a motel or hostel style stay with no private bathrooms and very dated and dirty rooms. Our bed did not even have a headboard as shown in the photos. There is no receptionist on site so it was difficult to even get a hold of anyone. The price is not even competitive and we ended up staying at a different hotel a block away for similar price with significantly higher quality level of stay.

We enjoyed our stay at the Brim Hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean! After a long trip around the ring road for 10 days we enjoyed our last two nights at the Brim Hotel! Very relaxing! Within walking distance from everything you can think of!

Nice hotel if you don't want to spend lots!
Some nice touches in the hotel (coffee machine with biscuits & social areas) Good breakfast but limited seating area.
Good size room, very comfy bed! Some bathrooms would benefit from some upgrade.
Location wise, not too much of a walk into the centre and parking was on the street.

The idea of having a self check-in hotel is great, and convenient but sending the details to actually check in when you're standing out front (since most travelers need wi-fi to access emails) isn't overly convenient. Someone should oil the hinges of the doors as every single one of them creek. The property itself is quite clean and actually pretty cool, just needs some extra thought to bring it up a notch on making it perfect.
The breakfast served in the morning was quite good, enough options to fill you up. The wi-fi is strong, but only in the common areas, it basically doesn't work in the rooms.
All in all, not a bad place to stay (about 20 min walk to downtown Reykjavik).
