Convenient Parking Space

“I was thrilled to find out that the Student Hostel offers a free parking lot, which is quite a rarity in the city. I found it very convenient to park my car just a short walk from the entrance. Although it filled up quickly during peak hours, I always managed to snag a spot without too much trouble.” view full review

Delicious Breakfast Options

“The continental breakfast served from 07:00 to 10:00 was a great way to start my day. The variety available allowed me to enjoy something different each morning. It was really nice to have this option right at the hostel, making it super convenient before heading out for the day's adventures.” view full review

“During my stay, I found the rooms to be quite spacious and well-furnished. I loved having a sink in the room, which I found to be quite common in Iceland.
