Sleeping in the "pods" is a fun experience. I've stayed there with my student groups on three occasions. The couple who run the facility are delightful. Great space for eating meals, cooking, or just lounging about. Location is in the heart of the center of Akureyri.

First time in a capsule hostel and it was great. Didn't feel like a hostel at all because of the privacy in the capsules. Capsules are good sized, equipped with TV, can be locked etc. The whole hostel has a great layout, check in system, facilities and all. The kitchen is professional grade with a walk in fridge. Location is great. The owners know how to run a hostel.

The entrance is tricky to find but overall is good. Check in is easy and the location is good. Kitchen and bathroom facilities are clean. Great experience of sleeping in the capsule.

Great place to stay in Akureyri! Very nice staff, fully equipped kitchen and dining area. Free coffee machine. A lot of clean bathrooms. Comfy sleep in the capsules.

Super clean, big baths, very nice staff. Even has a piano and snooker table. It's nice to have in a Hostel some private space in the capsule

This experience was so fun! My niece stayed in the capsule above me and we were so excited to stay in these "spaceships"! It was surprisingly comfortable. They provided lockers for things you didn't want cluttering your space. The capsules are fully equipped with tv, headphones, etc. The bathrooms were clean and plentiful. The front desk registrar (maybe an owner?) was super sweet and gave us so many dinner recommendations.

Staff was very sweet and accommodating. The pods were awesome! We’ve never stayed anywhere like this before and it was a great first experience. The pods are very roomy and comfortable. We were on the top bunk, so I’m not sure how bottom bunk experience is. Would definitely come back! The bathroom and shared areas were very clean, and you are right in the heart of the city of Akureyri.

Very friendly and unique stay. We had to change our date due to weather and the staff was so accommodating! Highly recommend for the experience but also the comfort. Also a big plus, plenty of bathrooms and very clean!

The cosiest hostel ever. Great chef kitchen just like in fully equipped restaurant. Clean, friendly, helpful owners, absolutely the best location with the open deck. We enjoyed it a lot.

Everything, very nice, calm, cozy, wonderful hosts
