I didn't care of having to carry my suitcases up to the reception desk. I do understand that this building is a little old in the sense that the reception desk in on the 2nd level from the street. I do like the morning breakfast. The fruits were sweet, there was quite a selection of various breads, bakery items, sandwiches to customize your own, oatmeal, juices, and of course coffee.

As the hotel is on Laugavegur it is on the main shopping street and cultural area of Reykjavik, and very close to the centre with all the main attractions. Staff on reception very friendly and helpful, as were the staff serving breakfast.Room and en suite was clean, plenty of towels, soaps etc, kettle and tea/coffee in the room, and plenty of plug sockets to charge cameras, phones, tablets etc. Some of the rooms overlook Hús máls og menningar (The Old Bookstore) which every evening has a band playing live between 8pm-11pm (free entry, the band is very good!), so if you want an early night you might be disturbed. Although there is a lift to all the floors, there's a few steps to access the entrance from the street, then a short flight of stairs to the lift.

We appreciated the hotel's central location. There was a live music venue across the street, and we were able to open the windows and enjoy the music. The room was clean and comfortable and we really liked the included breakfast.

The hotel was well located and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very small with a full size bed (slightly larger than a twin). There are stairs at the entrance which made for difficulties accesing the building with luggage.

Loved the location plus the (one) staff member we interacted with who was friendly and helpful. The location is great in the center of the city, but it is surrounded by bars and restaurants, so that it is noisy until quite late in the evening.
