Customer Reviews Broddanes
| 04 Sep 2012 Pavol, Slovakia | 100% | |
| nice and lovely place, unfortunately with sad story about locals who change their residence to capital area. | ||

| Lots of flies, rooms quite clean, great view either from the rooms, the kitchen, the living room or the game room! I really love the fact that we can watch almost all around the hostel by the windows, we also had the view on the islet that was supposed to be filled with uffins but we were unlucky as they were already gone when we stayed at the hostel, the game rooms is excellent with the pool, the books, the television, the radio, the different tables and games, and a great view on the valley... you even have the telescop in the game room and a pair of binoculars in the kitchen | ||

| This is by far the best hostel we've stayed in on our trip through Iceland! Spacious well equipped kitchen and living room, great views from the huge windows and all this to a more than fair price. | ||

| One toilet together with the shower for everybody is not a good idea. Try to get rid of the flies in the kitchen. | ||
| 07 Aug 2012 Nathalie, England & Wales | 100% | |
| This is the best hostel we stayed in in Iceland. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the place is very large, so that even when full it feels spacious and the location is stunning! | ||

| Amazing place in the middle of nowhere, on a peninsula in a fjord. Could see loads of puffins from common room! There were a few other guests on top floor, but basically we had the ground floor to ourselves, including pool table. Kitchen a bit ill-equipped though. | ||
