| Allthough the hostel is situated at the train station, and we had a room facing the tracks, this never caused any problem. The muffled sound of trains arriving and leaving the station was barely noticable... | ||

| Without any doubts it is the best hostel I've ever been into, in terms of rooms quality. They are brand new, very comfortable and in pristine conditions. The common kitchen seems to be very welcoming as well.
The place is still being renovated, so there are some minor issues (limited check-in in the train station), which are negligible considered the comfort of the rooms. | ||

| Could do with a communal lounge (there is only a small kitchen which tended to get very crowded as it was used as a social hub). Reception was late opening. | ||
| 08 Aug 2011 Herdís, Iceland | 70% | |
| Too much traffic and noise during the night and early in the morning, partly because of the location so near the train station. | ||
