    Great price for the location and amenities. Conveniently located in the city center, close to restaurants and bars. - Quick access to a taxi station for easy transportation. - ________ and ________ were two fantastic features that added to the overall experience. - __________ was another big advantage that made our stay enjoyable.

    There was no breakfast included in the room rate, which was a bit inconvenient. Paying extra for towels seemed unnecessary and a bit of a hassle.

    We loved the unique experience of sleeping in the capsule at Hafnarstraeti. The mood lights and Chromecast added a cool touch to the cabin. The location was ideal, with shops and restaurants close by. Despite the thin mattress, we found the bed to be comfortable. And the breakfast was not only delicious, but also had a unique twist. we highly recommend this hostel for a fun and memorable stay.

    The location was fantastic, right on the main street and close to everything. The hosts were warm and friendly, providing excellent service. The communal facilities were top-notch, with a variety of activities available such as piano, guitar, billiard, and board games.

    The parking situation was a bit of a hassle, with short-stay regulations during certain hours. Additionally, the sleep pods felt a bit cramped and may not be suitable for claustrophobic individuals.

    I recently stayed at Hafnarstraeti Hostel for a few nights and had a great experience. The capsule accommodation was unique and perfect for my solo travel. The individual washrooms with showers were clean and always available. Bonus points for the free laundry service! The friendly women at reception made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The buffet breakfast included in the room rate was delicious and a great way to start the day. The modern design of the hostel was a nice touch, and I loved the fact that sheets and towels were provided. Lastly, the free unlimited parking in the city streets during certain hours was a major convenience.

    I would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    We stayed in a unique capsule experience that was valued for money. The location was great, right in the city center near restaurants and bars. The capsule itself was spacious and well-equipped, with lighting, a fan control, TV, and even a headset. The bathrooms were clean and there was almost no waiting time. The staff was helpful, particularly in trying to resolve an issue with the washing machines. the facilities were new and clean, and the concept of the capsules was original.

    The pods were not the most comfortable, as they were warm, a bit noisy, and had soft mattresses.

    I had an amazing stay at this hostel! The family that runs it is incredibly kind and helpful. The cleanliness of the whole place was outstanding, and I appreciated getting a fresh towel every time I had a shower. The buffet breakfast was delicious, with homemade cakes, fresh fruits, and a variety of options to choose from. The capsule concept was unique and gave me privacy, with a comfortable memory foam mattress and fluffy pillow. The hostel also had great facilities, including a pool and a piano, and the location was convenient for exploring the city. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel at home.

    Nothing at all.
