The Hostel has recently been completely renovated. As the Hostel is very close to the International Airport in Keflavík it is often called "the Hostel by the airport ". Njarðvík and the area around has much more to offer than easy access to the airport. A few examples of activities you can find are fishing, sea angling, whale watching, golf courses and for the ones who wish to visit museums you can among others find mariene wildlife centre and a trout and salmon museums. For birdwatchers the area offers several locations to rival the best, among them are Hafnarberg, Garðskagi, Reykjanestá og Krísuvíkurbjarg. And last but not least, only 15 min from the hostel you will find The Blue Lagoon, one of Iceland's most popular tourist attractions. Next Hostels: Reykjavík, 45 km

| Very poor hostel. The only advantage of this hostel is the proximity to the airport. Otherwise, stay on Reykjavik. | ||

| Well, we were a little bit shocked that there was no one at the hostel (no staff as well) and door was opened. On the other hand we really like that kind of trust you see everywhere in icelandic society. It was a little bit cold at night but all in all it's nice hostel if you have early flight at Keflavik ;) We have even managed to get there by foot (though remember it's 6km and icelandic weather can be unpredictable). | ||

| We certainly enjoyed our brief stay. Easy to get to from the airport. | ||

| There was nobody at the reception of the hostel when we arrived, our bedroom key was on the bed, quite surprising at first ... so, can't rate "friendliness of staff". | ||

| The hostel is over 5 km from the airport. Calling it "by Keflavik Airport" is very misleading. The only way to get there is taxi, that costs ~2500 Korons. This particular hostel just ruins excellent impression left by other hostels in Iceland. Is not as clean, as friendly and as secure as other hostels we stayed in. We would not recommend it for the last night of your stay. | ||

| The location was unattended when we arrived and left. This was a little concerning. | ||

| Excellent alternative to taking a late-night FlyBus upon arriving (tired) at Keflavik from North America... Nice and clean on the inside, but not very appealing on the outside. Also, we were given an expensive complete tour of Njarðvík by a taxi driver who had no idea where the hostel was despite having the address, but that's none of the hostel's staff fault ;) | ||
