Very helpful staff. Stayed in one of the 2 rooms across the outdoor hall from the front desk. Quite small room, but for 2 nights it was fine. Wifi kicked out, especially the further from the door of the room. They could use a wifi extender in that part of the hotel, really good signal in the lounge/restauant. Happy hour drink specials, didn’t eat here. Lots of walkable restaurants and about 10 minutes to the rainbow street and lots of shops and cafes. Could use a fan in the bathroom as there was no ventilation after a shower.

Room was clean and modern. Bed was comfortable, and tap water also great to drink. Receptionist was really kind and helpful. He guided us with the parking in Iceland and also upgraded our room without asking. Hotel is located on a quiet street, but you are within walking distance of city center. I would definitely stay in Local 101 again :)

Adequate for an overnight pit stop. Staff was excellent. Our room was small (but big enough) and somewhat awkward. It, along with one other room, was located in the building next door. The room came complete with not one but TWO tiny sinks. One (minuscule) was located appropriately in the bathroom and the other (very small) outside the bathroom. That said, we slept great and were very comfortable. The breakfast, served in the lobby… next door…was very nice. Perfectly fine, as I said, for our needs.

4 dages tur til Island

It was great! The staff were very friendly and you felt welcome as soon as you came in. A small but cozy hotel, and it’s the perfect place to stay when you’re in Iceland. Only thing I have, is the breakfast. It was alright, but we waited quite a long time for the items to come, I’m thinking that there only were 1 person in the kitchen. Small thing. Otherwise, everything was good!

This is a charming small hotel that feels like a Scandinavian minimalist version of an Italian pension. It's owned by an impressive and friendly young couple who were very welcoming and provided great info and a great breakfast. Highly recommended.

All of the staff were wonderful. The room was nice. They offer a happy hour. I was a guest during the winter after a snow storm occurred. I disliked that the hotel did not shovel the sidewalk in front of the property. It was difficult maneuvering my roller bag along their sidewalk.

The hotel is right in the middle of the downtown harbor district. It's very touristy, but you're about a block away from the tourist attractions so you don't have the noise from that. Parking is on-street and you have to pay for it, unless you want to drive a couple of (short residential) blocks east to find something. It's a converted residence, so check with the hotel if you have mobility issues. I was in room 104 and had to sit in the tub to use the shower because the ceiling was too low. Also, a task light over the built-in desk would have been helpful. Having said all of that, the staff is great, the breakfast was good and it was a great place to stay.
