Pros: The breakfast was good, the rooms were clean, the staff was friendly and helpful. It wasn't a bad walk to downtown Reykjavik (only 40-50 mins), and it has a beautiful view.
The beds were comfortable, and the rooms upstairs were cozy.
While there was only one shower/toilet per gender per floor, I only had to wait once to use the bathroom. Mostly, people were polite and did their business quickly. (It helps if you're showering in the evening, I suppose.)

Pros: Because of the personal service (telephone calls and taking messages, computer use in office, laundry facilities and coffee anytime) the Capital Inn became a home away from home.

Pros: The Capital Inn is a great stay for backpackers. (I didn't stay in the hotel part, just the dormitory part). The rooms are large and there is free wi-fi!!! The kitchen is also large and has a lot of cooking utensils for you to use! The bathroom is okay, but I won't go into any glowing praises for it. There are bicycles to rent, but I found it an easy 30-40 minute walk to Downtown.

Cons: The noise from the road is very loud, but if you're tired it doesn't matter.
The water from the faucet smelled like eggs (sulfur), but it was't terrible. The water pressure for the ladies' shower on the second floor was pretty bad, but I was still able to get clean.

Cons: Hotel is located just by main road. So if you have the room from road side it can be noisy
3,7 Mediocre
Pros: Guests were mostly international students and fun to visit with them
Cons: It was more like student dorm. & family hotel and was no 24hr staff to wake you up!! You must have your own alarm clock. I almost missedmy early morning flight because the alarm clock the hotel lent me did not go off!!
5,0 Okay
Pros: Breakfast was very good
Cons: Too far away from everything, no transport (shuttle bus did not work) on website the free shuttle bus service was stated, which made taxi transport very expensive

Cons: It is a little off the beaten track, but for people of moderate fitness this presents no problem, and the busses are regular, and within reach of the hotel.
5,6 Okay
Pros: Friendly staff, clean
Cons: - Noise (doors, highway) - tv quality - monotone breakfast - bathroom needs a facelift

The kitchen is also large and has a lot of cooking utensils for you to use! The bathroom is okay, but I won't go into any glowing praises for it. There are bicycles to rent, but I found it an easy 30-40 minute walk to Downtown.
Cons: I had one issue with the hotel and one issue with Booking.com. My issue with the hotel is that it is not really a 24 hour Front Desk. There is a staff member that is on site 24 hours, but when I rolled in at 1:30am, he was asleep in his room and the doorbell wouldn't wake him. Luckily I was able to access their wi-fi, call the number and got a hold of the owner who was sleeping in his house and drove over to the hotel to give me a key. My issue with Booking.com was that they did not list the dormitory as a sleeping bag room. If you don't have your own sleeping bag and towel, they will rent you some for 6 euros per night.

Pros: One of the cheapest places to stay in Reykjavik and if you take it on those terms it's a very adequate place to stay (we spent four nights). Some internet reviews would have you believe this is straight out of the 'hostel' films but, as long you're not looking for the five star honeymoon penthouse of your dreams and take into account that this place costs a third of the costs of anywhere else in town you'll have more money to spend on excursions which are very conveniently located just over the road at the BSI bus station which is where you can catch the bus to the airport (Really recommend Thorsmork park if you get the chance!). Totally worth staying if you're on a budget (and unless your loaded in Iceland you will be!) Have fun!

4,7 Okay
Pros: The location was perfect.
Cons: The room of the friends I stayed with was burgled, which was entirely due to the negligence of the guest house keeper who was constantly away and most of the time the house was left unattended. The house keeper himself often behaved in an arrogant way, which made normal communication with him almost impossible.The breakfast was poor and one and the same every day. What is more, on the day of our departure (which happened to be very early in the morning) the house keeper refused to prepare breakfast packs, which was absolutely unfiendly and unprofessional.All in all, apart from the perfect location, I would not recommend this guest house unless the management changes in the future...

4,0 Okay
Pros: good location - close to bus station, domestic airport and downtown
Cons: the service is poor, room should be clean more often, garbage taken daily from the room, change towels
5,3 Okay
Pros: Really good location, close to the bus station, center is 5 mins walk. One of the lowest price in Reykjavik for accomodation in a private room with facilities incide. Room is clean enough.
Cons: I had to call to the manager by mobile phone to ask him to come to the reception and to check me in - I used rouming and it costed like hell. And it's written the hotel has intertet for free, but I didn't find a plug-in for wire and didn't catch any wifi.

Pros: great staff, across the road for buses to airport and blue lagoon, 15 min walk to old town and shopping area.
Cons: don't go in room No. 4 - beds are too narrow.
