Guest reviews for Skogar Hostel
"Very close to the main road. You can walk to the waterfall"
"Aucun."
"Cosy little hostel in a very nice and calm location. Clean and with a big kitchen. I guess during our stay the hostel wasn’t full because I didn’t have problems finding an empty toilet or shower, I also didn’t hear the door beeping from other guests"
"No regular sockets in the room, only usb chargers"
"Very quiet and comfortable. Large kitchen with lots of pots, pans plates etc. Nice free coffee machine. Large dining room. Nature is all around."
"Self check-in is convenient, but I would have preferred to see someone."
"Good communal kitchen. Clean hostel. Great location."
"Nothing really"
"really cool location in an old boarding school and right next to all the trails of skogafoss - don't miss kvernufoss right next door too! breakfast doesn't start until 8 but they sent up a packaged one the night before; this was really nice and a good perk as there's not a lot around"
"only 2 toilets per gender / 2 showers per floor"
"I really liked that there was a free coffee machine as I had an early interview to go to. The area was very close to museums and nearby cafes."
"I didn't like how expensive the place was and i didn't like how there was only an option to pay for double bed for solo travelers. You could also hear the locks of nearby guests opening throughout the night and early morning."
"Great location, easy to find, prompt communication, neat room (no frills, but has all the basics you'd need)"
"All rooms have digital door locks, and every time someone wanted to go back into their room, you'd hear beeping and and an unlocking message, so there was a lot of beeping happening throughout the evening. However, everyone did abide by the 10pm quiet time rule, and we slept very well regardless."
"Keyless entries and communication were great. Compared to other guest houses, it was quite clean. Since we were the first guests to check in, the bathroom and shower were spotless. However, as more people arrived, they left the place quite dirty. Perhaps they should schedule a few rounds of cleaning."
"They should schedule a few rounds of cleaning every day."
"The room was spacious with a sink. The bathroom and the shower was across the hall."
"Aucun."
"Very clean, spacious, interesting interior (former school premises)"
"Sound insulation could be better"

Jessica Motel Arctic Wind
"The location was perfect - right on the Sea and my daughter loved the fact that there were 2 horses right outside our apartment. Dagmar was the perfect hostess."
Nancy By the Lighthouse
"Spacious and perfect for a family of 6! Loved the location for us as we were trekking around the area! We did some Reykjavík, Golden Circle, and Blue Lagoon. Love the quiet community near the ocean with a perfect view to the north for lights!"
