Þrúdvangur 32,34,37, 850 Hella, Iceland –

Convenient location and very accommodating, with a much appreciated early checkin.

Martin

We didn’t like like anything as we had booked a holiday apartment with private bathroom and we ended up with two hostel rooms and shared facilities.

Alexander

Australia

The room was spacious and clean. The kitchen facilities were nice and big too. The ladies bathroom was spotless although the men’s looked a little bit worse. Overall excellent value for money. The location is between Selfoss and Vik, a very short drive to either and much better price.

Maria

The rooms were nice and the place is at a quiet place, I did enjoy the showers and they were nice and clean, it smelled nice in the hostel

Uckz

like the large kitchen and large dining area, although it's shared we were the only group at that time to use it. rooms are clean, hallway is wide and bright,

Jun

Great self check-in and check-out procedure.. it allows you to get and to leave there almost whenever you prefer. The kitchen was quite well equipped and the showers were ok. You need to have a car to get here! There is a grocery store close by.

Mario

Nothing - one of the worst hotel experiences ever! Accommodation was dirty and we could not find anyone in the hotel to contact us - there was no one at reception. Awful experience - don't stay there!

Maria

We had the standard twin room. The beds were comfy and the room was clean. The shared kitchen is nice and well equipped.

Samantha

Clean hostel. Good price/quality for Iceland. Clean rooms. Easy "code" check-in system. Daily cleaning. We received during our stay new fresh and clean towels.

Peter

The gentleman that was readying the shared space was gracious and helpful. Everything was very clean and inviting. I would highly recommend this as a stop for ppl visiting Iceland.

“Not good”

We were not informed that there are two buildings and our room is in the second. We were in hurry to check in with the given code (its self check in) so it was stressfull. It’s ridiculous to have deadline to check in in self checking hotel! And in the summer at 21:00 you have much more intersesting things to do in Iceland. When I wrote e-mail to ask for later check-in it was no answer till I checked-in. Than I was informed the key code works untill 23:00. So why they don”t tell it earlier?! We were driving from Seljalandsfoss to check in and then back to have sunset photos:( Room is very small, with no table and no trash basket Water was cold in the shower in the morning! It is not friendly hotel. First bad experience in Iceland

“Very comfortable stay at the hostel”

Check-in was a little difficult since I did not notice the code they sent via an email but it worked out at the end. However, they should have at least one personnel to help out even in the evening . One important negative point is that they do not have any hairdryers which means I could not wash my hair since I have long hair. (After staying 2 nights in Landmannalaugar where there is no electricity thus no hairdryer, I was looking forward to finally washing my hair at the hostel). It would be great if the hostel provides as least one hairdryer.
Very nice modern room with a private sink. Our room as well as kitchen were very clean and they have every kitchen appliances you need to cook. There is enough space in dining room and it is nicely decorated. Supermarket and gas stations are nearby which made our trip easy.

Since we didn`t have a chance to meet anybody at the reception, it felt a bit impersonal. The room didn't have a table.
The check-in was very easy, with a code we have received and it worked perfectly well. The kitchen was well equipped. The location is very good, as there are plenty of attractions not far away.

Late check-in time of 5 pm. When we arrived shortly after 5 and our room wasn’t clean so we had to wait. The main bathrooms are directly opposite the front entrance which is permanently unlocked so anyone can walk in off the street into the toilets and showers. The showers have individual cubicles that lock, but there is no where to hang your clothes/ towel within the cubicle without them getting wet, which means you have to step naked out of the shower cubicle into an area directly opposite the front entrance that any Tom, Dick or Harry could walk into... luckily there is one single shower behind the kitchen in its own little room that locks so I showered there. If it hadn’t been there I wouldn’t have showered for our whole stay.
