I liked closeness to the Straeto bus stop. The stop of the bus 15 is just around 2 blocks. The bus goes to Landspitallin - the closest stop to Hallgrimskirkja and Reykjavik bus terminal where all bus tours and transfers to Blue Lagoon or Keflavik airport start. Also, Netto supermarket is in just about 10-15 minutes of walk. Unlike many grocery stores, it works 24/7, so I picked up some food there before going to the tour.

It was cheap and had what you needed. It's not too far from most places you want to visit.

The location of this hostel is beautiful. It is right by the water. Our room was ocean view which made our stay more pleasant. The rooms and hostel is clean. Their kitchen has a lot of food which is available for use for everyone as it is left by departing guest. We even found beer in the kitchen in the sharing shelf.

Building is quite old and would need some refreshing (paintings on roof, walls..) but overall: Good location (10-15min walking to main restaurants and bars) Quiet building Comfortable bed Rather clean bathroom and very spacious which is appreciable We didn't see any staff but the code check in process was easy and well described by e-mail. Convenient to have code rather than key for the room.

The bed was extremely comfortable and I loved the window looking out on the sea.

It was a huge spacious room! Beautiful views of the sunset Nice bathroom Comfy beds

It is centrally located and near grocery stores like Bonus and Kronan. Check in was a breeze as they email you several days in advance what you need to know in case you arrive late at night. We are a family of four, we stayed at the 3 bed room but found it a little tight because of all our belongings. There were a lot of shared shower and toilets, so if you are worried about being an issue, don’t.

We were looking for budget and the Circle Hostel was affordable for the one night we needed. We spent the week touring around IS and spent our last night town. Easy to drive to and .5 mile walk to the center of town. Easy to drive in and out of town from this location. We booked a two bed room with private bath. Amazing view of the water from oversized window an unexpected plus

Clean room. Comfortable bed. Discount at a nearby restaurant.

Hostel is located in a spectacular place close to the ocean. Our room was spacious and the bathroom was very nice. Self check in is convenient.
