Recensioni su Lækur Hostel

The check in is easy and you get to choose the bed. There is a bus stop in front of the place and minimart close by. The hostel is clean .

Check-in was pretty smooth. I was allocated the room just above the main entrance as such, it can be quite noisy whenever people get in or out of the hostel with the door slamming and some vibration felt! The bathroom and wc are fairly clean and tidy. Very cosy common area to mingle and make new friends. Kitchen has all the basic necessity. I especially like the small area right outside my room where i can have a light meal and nice view of the surroundings. Bought the unlimited bus rides ticket via the Klappid app for travel within the Reykjavik capital city and bus svc 12 is just few steps away. If time permits, you can even walk to the coastal area for sight-seeing. Overall, i am very satisfied with my 8 nights stay at Laekur hostel!

Meet many new friends and have a great time here! The lighting and decorations are sweet!

還不錯！繼續努力下去吧！

地點有點偏離市中心。但是房間很乾凈。床鋪睡得也舒服。

很不錯，年輕人多

Free wifi was reliable and quick. I chose to stay here based on location for my first two nights in Iceland since I am doing an eight day G Adventure trip out of the couple of minutes walk away Hotel Cabin. Just fyi you can buy a return Flybus voucher which drops you off right outside Lækur Hostel and picks you up outside Hotel Cabin to go to the airport. I walked everywhere in Reykjavik (it isn't that big a city) and this is by far the better area than downtown (the CBD), which is an easy 20 minute walk away. More of the things you want to see are out this way. Such as Nature Gallery of the Recycled House, any fan of horror movies wants to experience this place, and it's a minute walk from the hostel. There's also a nice pathway along the ocean here going left to the CBD or going right, around to the cruise ship terminal. The main pool, well pools there's all different ones is also a minute or two walk away in the other direction. Every Icelandic person you meet tells you, you have to go there, it's their pastime. The main stadium for the city is also next to the pool if there was a concert or sporting you are visiting for. Botanic Gardens and zoo are to the left of those with the HI and campground in between. If you're going to Perlan, and you should be, it's about a 20 minute walk, you're closer to that then if you stayed in the CBD. There really isn't much to see or do in the CBD so unlike most other European capitals, there is no advantage really to need to stay in it. This was an awesome small hostel, one of the best I've ever stayed at. It's obvious whoever designed it has been a backpacker themselves as small things like free lockers (if you have a padlock (you can rent on if you don't, but who doesn't have a couple on their zippers on their bags?) are located outside of the dorm rooms. Important as someone looking for things isn't noisily doing that in room with others. Likewise the toilets and showers (all seperate individual stand alones, I think there were about six showers, and probably the same amount of toilets, were not like poorly designed dorm rooms, inside the dorm room. This meant if you wanted to get up earlier in the morning and use them, you didn't have to worry about who was complaining they had an early flight needing access, as there's plenty to choose from. They were high quality showers with both a normal showerhead and one on a hose you could switch between. The only thing I would have maybe liked was a few hooks in the change room part of the shower. Couldn't fault the cleanliness of the showers or toilets though, they were always clean. Liquid soap is provided at the sinks where there is also a hairdryer. The bed was really comfortable. I liked how they have this brilliant idea of giving you a magnet with a letter on it that you put on the upper or lower bunk that you have chosen, so any later arrival know that bed is taken, and two if a tour company or someone rings and leaves a message they know

We stayed here for a week , the website looked great , the rooms looked to be spacious and clean . However it turned out that this place wasn’t that great and the photos online were deceiving . Location wise it is about 2 miles from the centre . It has a lovely path you can walk down into the centre of Reykjavik . We had problems with the booking and the manager was not helpful to resolve the issue but to pay more money , not nice . The people in the cafe who you report to , some of who do not speak English are not very helpful and and not really bothered about being polite . The guest house is small , the kitchen is large but the oven did not work ( see video ) . There is no toaster , the area was a little scruffy and fridge needed a clean . The dryer did not work and had to be removed .Light fittings were coming apart . The windows were dirty and noise could be heard from outside as there is no double glazing . The blinds are not blackout and since we came in the summer it was very bright so difficult to sleep in . Cleaners were rarely seen in the area and the main cabins were left dirty . This place was expensive for what it is , I’ve stayed in many hostels around Europe , I had high hopes for this place but it turned out to be terrible . It would have been ok if the manager actually cared or spoke to me about the concerns I had , I wrote to him several times to resolve them but he ignored my requests . Not a place I would visit again.

Comfortable dorm bunk beds each with their own plug and USB port and reading light. Clean shared bathroom facilities. Shared kitchen which was also kept very clean. The café downstairs serves good food and the staff are friendly and helpful.

The bedroom was clean and carpeted. That was the best. The reception is the same for the bar so it seems like they are not at hand all the time.

Good location near several good foot paths along the coast. At 4 AM the fire alarm started blazing waking everyone up with no apparent trigger.

Liked the price and the adjoining cafe, I had the best meals in Reykjavik there. Cafe staff were very nice

I really liked how convenient it was located for me. Very quiet and excellent roommate.

Enjoyed my stay at this hostel!
