    Very clean and nicely decorated rooms, wonderful buffet breakfast, exceptionally good service. The staff here is extremely helpful and friendly, he helped us a lot during our stay. I don't believe there is any guesthouse/ hotel in this price range will give you the same experience. A must-visit...

    fantastic location in capital. breakfast included which is helpful. Can come and go as you please with your own key so it does feel as though its your own home to a point. Only complaint would be that door keeper has a room on bottom floor and can be a little noisy. Otherwise great guesthouse....

    it was more like a hotel, which meant that we didn't see anyone else. But still a great place to stay that has really comfortable beds, a great breakfast, showers, and a great location!

    The rooms are large and tastefully decorated and the beds are really comfortable. I liked the breakfast in the attic- nothing special but the setting was nice. I also enjoyed the free coffee/tea in the lounge. The location is great and so is the value.

    Amazing breakfasts, only annoying thing was that my en suite was separated from my room and needed a key for that, as well as my room.

    After our plane was delayed into Keflavik we arrived a little late to be greeted by someone who clearly wasn't happy about being woken at midnight and let us know about it but maybe that's just an Iceland thing. Other than that we were more than happy with everthing from the well appointed room... more

    Cosy, central location, nice staff, everything practical was in order, okay breakfast, a little loud between rooms, very clean. Guesthouse feeling where everybody says hello at the breakfast table. Last but not least a cheap place.

    Beds and pillows are very good, and the breakfast as well. The only bad thing about the place was the smell of smoke in halls and stairs.

    the name of the hostel is Isafold, Barugata 11 is the address. Very nice stay, friendly staff. Really nice was the fact that sandwiches were left in the fridge for us to take along when we had to leave early to get our flight back. What a service!

    best place in iceland that we stayed at. so comfy, showers a ripper. breaky was great and location could not be beat, neither could the price. it was cheaper than a proper hostel once you pay for linen, towels, breaky etc!

    Charming place with nice personality. Very clean. We stayed in the double room on the 1st floor and it's nice that they provide towels, breakfast, and a lounge area with tv and fridge. Only complaint would be that the 1st floor shower is cramped and has a finicky shower head.
