I arrived very late at night and was happy that I could do self check-in. I needed a place for a short night and Igdlo had everything I needed. Rooms are simple but clean, free coffee and possibility of having a simple, but very fairly priced breakfast was a big plus. Staff - or owners? - were very friendly.

Magda Germany

Location is good. Staff were sweet - the gentleman who was there that afternoon let me check in early, and taught me a little bit of Icelandic botany when I said I loved plants. Clean and very good value for the cost.

Elliot United States of America

The staff was great and super friendly, the room was exceptional. There was a lot more space than I initially thought, we stayed in a suite and it was very affordable.

Ashlee United States of America

Owners were helpful. Lodging was comfy and bathrooms were clean; just had to be ready for your time.

Richard United States of America

The check in staff were very nice. They said I could drop my luggage off early (I got in at 7:30 am and my check in wasn't until 3). but my room was ready then so I got to check in and change clothes.

Roy United States of America

short walk to the BSI bus terminal, church. nice sized rooms.

Kathleen United States of America

We had an extremely comfortable staying. The guesthouse is very well located, mid-way between the main bus stations and the city centre. The room was clean, comfy and dry. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need, even for a mid/long staying. The staff and the landlord are super kind, easygoing and happy to help in any circumstances. Late-night check in is allowed, which is a must is Icelandic road trips.

Marta Spain

Everyone was super helpful and nice. I had very early arrival and departure times and they were very accommodating.

Julia United States of America

nice kitchen area- good location - staff allowed me to store a large bag for a few days

Kenneth United States of America

This was a basic, old fashioned guesthouse located on a quiet street off the main streets. The room was small, with its own sink, and scrupulously clean. Bed was firm and comfortable. Bathrooms were clean. The staff was extremely generous and helpful. The kitchen was well stocked, even some free food. Laundry was free. Guests were quiet and considerate. It was within walking distance of both the main bus station and a large shopping street. It was about two blocks from one of the hop on hop off bus stops and a city bus stop was very close.
