10/10 Excellent
"Staying here was a wonderful experience! The front desk staff was extremely accommodating and the desk was staffed 24/7, which was so convenient. It was completely silent at night. One of our best nights sleep of our trip. Pods were well laid out so there was plenty of room for 2 adults and all of our luggage. Bathrooms were nice and well stocked. Honestly, I don’t have any complaints. The kitchen was well-stocked with add-ons (beverages, mostly). There is a laundry service with reasonable prices, but I didn’t use it so I can’t speak to the quality of the service. The room was very clean, no weird smell. The location was great. When I am next in Reykjavik, I will absolutely be staying here again!"
