Because we arrived late, had excursions and departed the last day early, had no interaction with staff. However, the access instructions were clear. Guesthouse is a 10 minute walk to the BSL bus terminal. Single room was clean, small but practical. The bathroom outside needs to updated a bit. Overal, it served my pourposes.

This is the best "budget" option by far. Very helpfull, friendly staff, great kitchen to use, quiet and clean rooms, nice garden area and walking distance to downtown/shops/Museums Coffee and tea is free and for 5 Euro there is a buffet style breakfast, which is great. Furniture is a bit "vintage", but everything is very clean, comfortable and practical. My go-to-guesthouse whenever I go to Reykjavic.

The room was small and worn out. My daughter and I also had multiple bug bites.Overall, my experience at Igdlo was mediocre at best.

I should start by mentioning that this was my first experience in a hostel. The single room I chose was small, but certainly adequate in size for just me. The big issue I had was that the beds were both so uncomfortable that I woke up several times due to pain in my back. Though I accept the fact that it could have more to do with the fact that I am nearly 50, I can also say with certainty that nobody wants to feel springs in their back as they're attempting to sleep. Overall, the main areas stayed quiet and I was not awoken or bothered by noise from other guests. The bathroom on our floor accommodated six rooms, I believe, but I did not ever find it to be occupied when I needed to make use of it. I only saw one staff person one time during my stay, and he was quite nice. If I were to base the likelihood of staying at a hostel again on this experience, it would definitely be a no for me.

Great bonuses

A basic but comfortable place to stay, offering some great bonuses like breakfast for a small extra charge, free tea and expresso type coffee all day, a kitchen area, and keypad controlled entry so no keys to loose. The toilet and showers are shared by I never had to wait to use them. Location is very convenient for both bus stations, and still only 10-15 minutes walk from the centre. Rooms are supplied with tv, duvet, blanket, pillow, sink and towels.

It was what was expected of a hostel type room. The property was a bit outdated and rooms were a bit stuffy temperature wise, but staff did try to make our stay comfortable. Washer and dryer machines were iffy, but the detergent was included at least. We came during the winter, during their off peak season, and they were in the middle of renovations, so I cant fault them for that. Overall it met our needs.

Wonderful stay, we utilized the shared kitchen and laundry room areas, they were clean and well kept. We had an emergency for which we had to contact the guesthouse manager, Ingi, at 12AM, and he picked up and helped us. Overall, staff was amazing and place was very neat, would stay here again!
