Reykjavik Peace Center - Guesthouse

Pretty average hostel

This is a "self-help" facility. There is no staff. My room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. But shared bathroom and kitchen could use some TLC. The location is great if you have a car, but way out from the center (40-50 minutes by bus), so beware.

This should

Charming room in a charming house with clean sheets and simple living setup in a shared group house space. We were unsure of which room we were in since we made the reservation three months in advance, but found the original confirmation email which sorted it all out.

The room we got is different from what the pictures showed in the booking website. There were a few rooms available at least for the first night but we were not able to change to.

For the price it is good place.

Notre dernier logement avant notre départ. Quelle erreur ! Nous nous sommes retrouvés dans une chambre de 10 m2 , une chaise et une table de nuit. Il n’y avait même pas la place d’ouvrir ses valises dans la chambre. Le lit est collé aux fenêtres. La salle de bain pas propre. État des placards de salle de bains et cuisine sales. Le sol idem.

Stayed for two nights and only ever heard other people once during the stay. Like other reviews said, it had kind of an eerie feel due to that but we had peaceful sleeps. Lots of stairs and interesting layout of the house! Could only find one working shower on the property but drained extremely slow requiring us to stop and start the water flow. Bathrooms were not clean (toilets dirty, multiple toilet rolls around) and garbages not emptied during our stay. Fridges full with extra food not sure who it was. Family who lives attached to the house (?) was friendly.

f on which room was ours. This was problematic and required a phone call to resolve. Otherwise it was fine.

The cleanliness was not in order, bathrooms were dirty when we checked in, had to raise a complaint with the owner to get them cleaned. The wifi connectivity was really pathetic, since we came from a different country, it created inconvenience for us as wifi was the only way for us to stay in touch. The location was fine and was 15min from Reykjavik. Overall, it was what we paid for, as it was the cheaper option

If you have a car it is GREAT, but, transport has issues. Not convenient to get around. Else wise good place.

hotels.com should remove this kind of product from your listings. it's typical family house and runs as airbnb . It will destroy your reputation . 4 nights stay here, you can judge immediately that bed linings are used with wrinkles and unwashed without any laundry chemical smell, they’re disgusting. Day 1 and Day 4 are same smell on bed linings with body odour and sweat after my 4 days stays. No shower gel and shampoo. Internet is almost not working . No check in instruction before arrival and call the number on the door with nervous Hopeless assistance and it’s hard to contact My food was stolen in the fridge. Noise spread everywhere in whole timber house.

Good experience with really nice and helpful service. It was easy to check in and out. Unfortunately there was a lot of noise, so it was easy to hear the other guests through the doors and walls.

it was good but they didn’t have burgari and oven

The penthouse was nice, because there was space enough. Smell downstairs was bad. Also kitchen would need table and more equipments. Trash was too full.

Great

The property itself was fine…. It was the getting to the property that was crazy stressful AND expensive!!!!! There should be a tip or warning of the expensive route to property from bus station… only 10 minute taxi ride that cost $44 usd each direction. Property provided an emailed link on how to get to property after it was booked…. Only problem was, the link never opened my entire stay, so I’m unsure if the information was helpful or not!?!?

Firstly the property is not well maintained, kitchen equipment are old and some are not working properly, - someone had leftover in the kitchen, it was there when we were there and still there when we checked out… it smelled all the time. - no black out window drapes, some windows do not have anything to close or block sun. - felt like the comforters and bed sheets were not washed before we checked in, felt some had used them - kitchen/dining area were not clean so we eat in our room I don’t recommend this to anyone.

La position géographique et l'amabilité de l'accueil

HORRIBLE PLACE! The main entrance door to this center would not open and had to be kicked from inside to open. While trying to enter from outside, we had to bang on the door and side window before someone opened it from inside. Extremely scary when you are with family and arrive late Bathrooms were unclean and filthy, used soap provided. Dustbins overflowing with thrash. Water in the taps had sulphur smell. Kitchen was unclean and dirty. Horrible, worst experience.
