Pros: The rooms look exactly like the pictures! The decor is phenomenal. The room and the kitchen is well equipped. The location is excellent. If you're taking public transport, the hotel is a few minutes walk from Hlemmur (one of the main bus terminals). If you're driving, there is plenty of parking around the hotel. The hotel is also quite close to the street "Laugavegur", which is the main shopping street with lots of restaurants. I definitely will be staying here again when I go back to Reykjavik.

Pros: The downtown location is really convenient for exploring the surrounding area and is within easy walking distance to restaurants, shops and several landmarks/museums. Plus, bus stop #13 is right outside the main entrance which makes it ideal for both airport and tour bus pick-ups/drop-offs. I was delighted that they put me in a corner room on the 4th floor with lots of windows. The room overlooked the street below, but you don't really hear the traffic. The free buffet breakfast is fantastic. Lots of choices that cater to different nationalities. Highly recommend adding the spa package to your reservation; you have full use of the gym, sauna, indoor and outdoor jacuzzis. And you can order a cocktail. ;)

Pros: Great place, great spa, very nice breakfast.
Cons: We were given two single beds, even though booked a double bed. Staff claimed there are no double beds in the whole hotel. They fixed it with a zipper though, which worked out okay, but please do something about this cause no one wants to go through the trouble of complaining and then having their mattresses fixed upon arrival. Also the rooms are super small. Difficult to walk around. For the price you pay that is quite inconvenient.

Pros: What did I like? ALL. My first time in Iceland, a dream that came true thanks to Hlemmur Square. Here I met people from all over the world, the staff is really excellent and also very professional and nice. Their kindness and education was perfect. From day one they were available to me for anything, especially when I asked for some general information on how to reach a certain place in the city and much more. Hlemmur Square made me fall in love, great service, rooms with excellent views, clean and tidy; EXCELLENT quality-price ratio. In short, I lived 7 best days of my life. The location is 100 stars. In front you found the supermarket 10-11 is open 24h/7. Surrounded by bus stops especially BUS STOP 10 which for me was fundamental in my excursions outside the city (you can also wait in front of the door :D). Behind the structure there is a police command, about 5 minutes on foot ahead of the hospital, about 20 meters there is an excellent restaurant named Jorgensen K&B which I have tried and I recommend to everyone. Always adjacent to the structure is Noodle station (typical Asian cuisine). Iceland in general is a super safe place, many times even in the hostel I left my phone lying around along with my wallet and after a few hours I found them there in their place. Punctual buses like a Swiss watch. Well everything in Iceland is perfect. In addition, Hlemmur Square has a wonderful room where you can talk or read a few books, or sip an EXCELLENT beer in the bar which also offers a delicious breakfast!There is no number or adjective to describe my experience with this hostel because it was incredible. I do not deny that during the check-out I shed a few tears because of the sadness, because there people, the environment and the place will always make you feel at home, and I already know for sure that next year I will be back with them!

Pros: I loved the friendly staff. I absolutely loved the sleeping capsules as it provided privacy. It even had its own TV! It’s across the street from a grocery store if you wanted to get food.

Pros: I like the futuristic feel of this hostel. The bed was comfortable with several USB ports to charge your electronics. The facilities were clean and they provide shampoo. Located across the street from Kronan grocery store makes this a perfect option for me since everything is expensive in Iceland. I will definitely stay here again.

Pros: The nice environment and the pod system, which is really exciting! Will come again!
Cons: The kitchen could have used a fresh clean up
5.4 Okay
Pros: The idea is cool.
Cons: USB ports didn't work in the pod. One of the two air vents didn't work and trust me, you want them to. Some showers were kind of gross. I'm guessing they only clean them on occasion.
6.7 Good
Pros: Central location, staff very friendly
Cons: Beds were horribly uncomfortable, very thin foam mattress, no air circulation and no noise barrier. Lockers are very small, only a back pack could fit(they are kitchen cupboards with locks)

Pros: Easy walk or bus to downtown, grocery across the street to save $ on food and great staff. Recommend it!
Cons: It’s a little cramped and noisy, but that is true of most hostels.
5.4 Okay
Pros: The location, the breakfast and the VR room.
Cons: The pods made a lot of noise!!!! Every time we moved it made loud noises so the people in the pod above us felt really uncomfortable which made us felt very uncomfortable too! The room was really small for 8 people! We didn’t fit the 8 of us there when we were outside the pods. So we had to take turns to change clothes or do our luggage, cause we didn’t even fit standing up. The stairs to get to our pod were really really small and uncomfortable and make a lot of noise... The morning we left, one of your room mates yelled at us because we were making noise.. but we weren’t doing a lot of noise, we were trying to get down without moving, so it was a disaster! No one likes to be yelled at the morning for trying to get down to the floor to get out of the room.... I wouldn’t come back to this place. Yes, the technology it’s cool and stuff but everything was really tiny.. (I’m 1.50m and felt even weird for me!)... not worth the price.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: The staff were great. Friendly and helpful. Pods were awesome too.
Cons: The bathrooms could have been a bit better. They weren't awful but the showers looked like they hadn't been cleaned in a while.
5.8 Okay
Pros: Loved the attempt at futuristic accommodations and the staff was friendly. The location was also good.
Cons: The pod rooms themselves were small and hard to maneuver with other guests. The pods also were made from plastic so it felt a bit cheesy. The bathrooms were not actively maintained, so some of them were not useable.
4.6 Okay
Pros: Nice view out of the lobby
Cons: The pod became very hot during the night (it was +10C outside), the fans for circulating air were loud and in general the cleanliness was pretty bad.

They even left a surprise bottle of champagne in our room with a hand written note for our honeymoon! They lent us their personal phone charger for the duration of our stay. Every staff member was extremely kind and personable, helping with WHATEVER we needed WHENEVER we needed anything! Particularly, Elva, Albert, and Angelika! The beds are soooo comfortable and the entire hotel is extremely clean. Excellent value for money. Strong, reliable wifi. Breakfast was simple but sufficient. Perfect location to walk to the eateries, shops, BSI, and water. Plus, a beautiful view of the city, mountains, and water. Highly recommend this hotel for any traveller!

And the fact you could make your tea and coffee on the floor where your room was, very good. Also the hotel was connected to a restaurant( same place where the buffet breakfast was served), that provided good meals for reasonable prices, even before the 10% off, if you were a hotel guest.

Pros: Score comes out somewhat low when I fill in the different aspects of the accommodation by the letter. I stayed just a couple of days but I was really 8- happy with my stay. Perhaps it is a bit unconventional here and it does not fit the general bill. It is generally clean, easy come and easy go, well located and has an informal youth hostel like charm but without the chaos. The bus terminal is conveniently nearby although the building site of the hospital in between, is puzzling. Igdlo has kindly updated directions every time though. Nice. Did not expect a tv here, could not get the regular TV channels to work but apps and netflix were good. Also liked the painting in my room!

Pros: Igdlo Guesthouse is perfect for travellers! Good location, cosy and clean. The shared bathroom was always clean!! Kitchen is very well equipped, we loved it. You have opportunity to make a coffe or a hot tea for free anytime. Our room was basic, but optimal for travellers. Hosts were really flexible, it was easy to get in after the check in hours, because we received every detail in advance. I recommend it for everyone! : )

Cons: Sleeping quality depends a lot on the other boarders as contact noise is easily heard and the electronic doorlocks beep loud. You could leave you room open if you are just popping out to the bathroom? Mind you that my room was next to the shared bathroom. Some of the facilities are a bit tired like the shared shower surroundings which is also a bit hard to keep dry (curtain). Small details but in general it all works. I never really met any management on location as I was out most of the time but there are notes everywhere to help you out. Scavenger hunt :-)
9.6 Excellent
Pros: Igdlo Guesthouse is perfect for travellers! Good location, cosy and clean. The shared bathroom was always clean!! Kitchen is very well equipped, we loved it. You have opportunity to make a coffe or a hot tea for free anytime. Our room was basic, but optimal for travellers. Hosts were really flexible, it was easy to get in after the check in hours, because we received every detail in advance. I recommend it for everyone! : )
Cons: -
Located in Reykjavik (Reykjavík East), Igdlo Guesthouse is within a 15-minute walk of Laugavegur and Hallgrimskirkja. Featured amenities include multilingual staff and coffee/tea in a common area. Free self parking is available onsite.

Pros: Interior of the hotel was very clean, location was pretty good, and the free WiFi was useful and worked well. Room was much quieter than many hotels, with earplugs in I only heard hallway noises (not the people next door, above, and below, as is common). Breakfast was decent (but plates, bowls, utensils, and cups could be in short supply). Check-in was inconvenient but they do have a nice luggage room and were perfectly willing to hold our bags both day of arrival and day of departure, while we did some sightseeing.

Cons: It felt a lot like a hostel - difference being the fact they provided sheets and own bathroom. Breakfast was better than what's offered at most hostels I've stayed at but felt very similar otherwise (complete with threatening signs). Our reservation paperwork said check-in was at 2:00--when we arrived, staff was insistent that it was 3:00, and no, no early check-in available. Well before 3:00, the lobby was crowded with people waiting to check-in.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: We checked in outside of check in times (we didn't see the early closing time until we read it in the directions that are sent after you make your booking.) Staff member Jon was SUPER helpful when we reached him by telephone. Room was beautiful, beds were very comfy, and the bathrooms were large and clean.
Cons: Reception closes very early (1600 or 1700). *But* they have a. GREAT system of allowing you to check in using a door code. It worked well.
6.3 Good
Pros: Very good location!
Cons: Not clean at all!
7.5 Good
Pros: The location was good in that it was in a quieter residential area within an easy walk to major sights plus near a city geothermal pool. (Note: city pools are free of charge for anyone 67 and older!) It was good to have access to a kitchen. Beds were comfortable, and having a refrigerator and a sink in the room was a plus. The man at the main desk was very pleasant and helpful. He assisted me in changing my airport bus reservation and provided very helpful information.
Cons: I stayed two nights. My room the first night was in the basement of the Floki 3 building. That room was quiet and dark, but it needed both a deep cleaning and an update. The hallway and shared toilet/shower rooms smelled terribly of mold. I complained and was readily moved to the main floor. That room was cleaner and a bit newer, but still needed more attention than it got. Accessible outlets were an issue in both rooms. The kitchen is too small for the number of people, needs a good cleaning, and is only minimally stocked with dishes and utensils. Fine for making coffee or tea, but not much else.

Envelopes with the name are at the front door, inside the room number and an electronic key. Very helpful staff. The family room with kitchen is very comfortable and has its own bathroom and kitchen with all utensils.
Cons: Our company of friends booked two rooms. The room on the minus ground floor had a spider and small caterpillars. But for such a low cost, this did not cause a shock. There were no insects in the room on the third floor.
