101 Guesthouse

Location was fantastic.friendly staff.room basic but hot.

A converted building that transformed to provide hostel like accommodation. It is definitely not "modern and fresh" as claimed on their website. Overall building especially the rooms and toilets had a very weird odour. The beds were in poor condition that warrants replacement. Overall, a cheap accommodation that one would stay merely for the location if there are no better choices around!

For some reason my original reservation in another hotel was cancelled. Luckily, I found the last room in this guesthouse and it was pretty close to the place I was. Overall it was good although there was some kids made loud noise for 2-3 days during my stay. The location was very nice.

His was a cute little hostel type hotel in a good location to walk around the city. The rooms were small and the bathrooms and shower were shared but the beds weee comfortable and the room was clean. There is a good place to get breakfast downstairs and a majestic and coffee shop down the street. Of if you get your own food there is a shared kitchen with a stove and fridge. Overall a good play to stay, we only stayed one night but would have stayed more.

From the online description, we didn't realize that this was a hostel, but we were pleasantly surprised anyway. We've never stayed in a hostel, and wouldn't have picked it. But the regular hotels in Reykjavik were so expensive that we decided to try this one. Nice, clean place, with friendly guests. It was advertised as a 24-hr front desk, but be aware that this means that you buzz the "front desk", wake up the employee, and he or she comes to the front desk. There is no breakfast included, but there is a breakfast place downstairs and a complete grocery store across the street.
