The room was great overall. It is spacious and clean. Kitchen is fine. It have all the essential and oven, however, there is not enough dinning space. The place always got crowed during dinner time. The lounge kept closed until my last day. Some hair dryer also not working.

Hostel B47 is ideally positioned centrally near to the main shopping area and not far from bus station. Also it is only a five minute walk from the Halgrims church which has a very high tower. Easy to find your way back to the Hostel as the tower makes a good marker.

Great hostel in Reykjavik
Very nice hostel with friendly staff and lots of shared spaces. Very clean, but hot water smelled weird (due to use of geothermal water heating). Other than that, a very nice experience.

Great place. The staff was helpful, friendly and they had safes allowing to sleep peacefully. I just wish they had more common areas.
