101 Hostel was AWESOME
Very nice, very clean, and met some really nice people. Location couldn't be better if you're looking to explore downtown Reykjavik and all of the restaurants, shops, and bars that the city has to offer!! Very short walk from Bus stop 10, which is where I was able to be picked up/dropped off for all of my tours and airport transports! Only thing I have to say is MAKE SURE you contact them ahead of time before your stay so they can give you the code to access your room, there is not staff on site 24/7.

I couldn’t sleep - sounds a bit strange but I think the emergency exit lights were too bright? Staff were okay. I was the only one staying in a room of 12. Check out is at 10am.

Jeg følte mig som en del af familien
Det var min første gang på et hostel og jeg var positivt overrasket. Hostelet ligger midt i byen og har den mest idylliske atmosfære, med have, køkken og en kærlig familie. Familien der driver stedet er så åbne og imødekommende. Rigtige dejlige mennesker der altid har tid til at hjælpe.

Comfortable, clean, accommodating- 10/10
The proprietors were very kind and made me feel very welcome during my short stay in their country. The bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom were very clean. In the morning I met the friendliest little pup and received a great recommendation for the swimming pool nearby. The area around the hostel was charming and I never felt unsafe or insecure. I’m glad to have stayed here and I will definitely be back next time I stopover in Iceland!

A few days before my arrival I was redirected to another place named Falkinn Guesthouse (it is not listed om Expedia but on Booking). The people of this guesthouse were nice, the location was similar, but the room was really small and not comfortable at all. Generally I do not llke when a hostel sends you to another hostel shortly before arrival. Reykjavik is full booked so you have no choice. I want to make my own choice on basis of information and images I find on the website of Expedia. 101 Hostel should mention on the Expedia-site that it sends people to other places and provide relevant information.

Such a lovely and cosy place. The owners (and their cutest dog) are amazing, and they make you feel like home there. Perfect place to meet other travelers, and the location couldn't be better. I recommend with big heart.

地點很棒但住宿空間不舒服
旅舍地點很靠近商店街、旅行接駁點,工作人員也相當熱情友善,但是廚房和室內公共空間很小、對於需要有個人空間的旅客還說會有壓迫感,有微波爐、爐具、電磁爐,設備齊全,如果你只是想要基本的睡覺和方便,這裡可以滿足你,但如果預算許可,還是住舒服些吧~
