Rooms are really small. We paid for 5 people but got only 4 linens - if we wanted one more we would need to pay 3500ISK and i don’t really understand why.

The kitchen is really big and good equipped. Location is good, near Myvatn lake.

Some guests were loud later in the night, but this is no fault of the hostel.

Centrally located, clean, near Hveri and Lake myvatn with ample tours nearby. Also excellent value for price.

The person that sleeps in the bottom bed close to the door gets awaken every time someone enters the room

We were a group of 4 people, so we got a room just for ourselves. The room was cosy, and the facilities well kept (bathroom, shower, and kitchen)

Stayed in June 2025

The shared breakfast / seating area was light & warm! Lots of space in the shower area!

At the dinner time, kitchen became a bit crowded, but luckily we finished our dinner already.

Kitchen is very well equipped, dinning room has amazing view and beds are very comfortable. There were enough toilets and everything was clean. For a one night stay, a family room was perfect for us. It was nice to meet other families there, too.

Only 2 mens toilets for the whole facility (with almost 20 rooms) - no sheets and towel included in the price of 50€/night. Sleeping bag mandatory. - the dining room was nice. I was missing a place to hang out in the evening, though, as the dining room was very buzy with people eating there

Clean rooms + Showers clean + Big and modern kitchen with a nice room to eat + Free parking in the front + Very quiet at night + Location is inside a lava field. That means, it is a bit away from the town, though.

Rooms were a little small, bunk beds against wall but comfy

Good location for area. Very kind and helpful staff. Nice facilities large kitchen and dining area. Individual showers.

Toilets were small n dirty and the shower area was on the other side of Toilets. It's not adjacent like in most of the hostels. So sometimes it's quite embarrassing. Rooms are literally tiny. Just enough place for the beds. Overall, mid of the attractions and a great place to stay.

It was a different experience staying in such kind of place. It was more of a rail boogie with many small rooms and a big kitchen with dormitory type dining tables.

Location is great. Kitchen is clean and well equiped and dining room is good. Rooms with heaters, felt warm and cosy after rainy and windy day outside.

Stayed in June 2024

the exterior was off putting. Quite in contrast to the interior that was bright, clean and comfortable.

Loved the dining area. Great view of the lava field and surrounding area.

The reception staff seemed a bit impatient (or maybe just frazzled) at checkin, and weirdly strict with office time to open for checkin. A long queue formed outside the locked door until Exactly 5pm. We stayed in the long red hostel. It looks pretty bad on the outside...peeling paint, not particularly sturdy looking. But the inside was modern, fresh, and clean. Rooms were VERY stuffy with no fan, and the window doesn't open much.

Very clean rooms. Best breakfast from our 7 night stays in various guest houses. Livia (who did up the breakfast buffet) was great! The social room is quite nice, and large. The kitchen is very big, well equipped, and modern.

Bed, i touched the feet of the other person.

It was a bit cold in the common areas. We were lucky that the hostel wasn’t fully booked and it was quiet.

The location was great, very close to many popular locations in Iceland.

Stayed in October 2023

The kitchen was a little bit unorganised and some things were missing.

Cheap option within the area. The showers are quite new. Good location as it is close to Mývatn.

Nothing - we got what we expected

Very basic, but clean and completely ok for just coming to sleep and leaving the next morning. Matching the description and rating of 1 star accommodation. +We were able to see the aurora just outside of the hostel 🤗

The top bunk were connected to each other. It's a weird configuration so you could accidentally touch feet with others. No dividers or curtains over the beds. They charge for linens, duvets, etc. It's a bare bones place but that took me by surprise to charge extra for even linens.

The smaller rooms with only 4 beds with less noise. It's in a remote place on the way to other things.
