哈纳斯特拉地青年旅舍

My door didn’t lock, a hostel with a bunch of people, I’m a woman and my door had no lock

Stay was okay, but you have to keep your luggage in luggage/storage room provided inside the hostel.Limited parking in front of the Hostel and you have to pay for parking if its parked outside the free parking hours.

This was a great property in the downtown of Akureyri. The location couldn't have been better. Though it was a hostel, it was very clean. The property also provided many amenities.

The pods were amazing. Having your own little quiet space was just the best. They are spacious and so comfortable- I had a single and had space to store some clothing items. There are coat racks and a good storage space. It is kept clean and is lovely and welcoming. The bathroom Facilities are very modern and it’s about 12 toilet/ shower rooms. There are 2 lounge areas - kitchen and at the back of the hostel and the outdoor area is also lovely. The kitchen facilities are great too and everyone did their bit to keep it tidy. Would recommend and would stay there again

The pod hotel idea is cool, and the pods are quite cozy and nice. However, there were a lot of very loud rude people in the pods around me coming in and out after midnight. It's very loud in the bottom pod when someone is disrespectfully stomping up their steps and opening and closing their door all the time. I got very little sleep.

Well thought out. Our first experience with capsule sleep pod. Comfortable, safe, quiet. Well organized system for checking & well equipped kitchen.

I agree it's a pretty fun and unique place to stay at. However, you'll be lucky if you get the upper bed. I was given the lower bed and I couldn't trust the quality of the pods enough when the person on top kept moving around. Much worse creaking sounds than normal bunked beds. The pods are made of plastic that felt so unstable. Don't expect the pods to cancel out the noises because it doesn't. I can hear so clearly the people around me snoring. The mattress are kind of thin but honestly wasn't too much of a problem for me as I don't like soft bed. Rarely did I see any staffs in person. You'd have to ring a doorbell to get into contact with them. The locker rooms are kind of beaten up. One thing I do like however, is that there are a good amount of restroom/shower rooms.

Love the capsule concept and the facility is fully equipped and modernized. Love it!!

Our stay was not up to the excitement I had when I first booked this hostel. The idea of it is great. However I believe management is lacking in some regards. First we were concerned that we would not be able to make the drive(due to road closure) however talking to management on the phone, we were told roads would open up and if they do, we would not get a refund. So we drove, 10 hours, through very difficult conditions to say the least. Once we arrived at 11pm. We did self check in, to find our pod was dirty. After calling management, we got another pod. We were hoping to shower but the towels were locked and were for rent of 1000Kr each, so we couldn’t. The first night we realized that only one vent in the pod worked. So we became extremely hot inside the pod. We asked for ANOTHER pod, towels, and laundry. We were able to get another pod for the rest of our stay. However be warned, the two vents are extremely small and it still can became hot, not as bad as the first night. We’re able to get towels for free from management thankfully. We found out that the kitchen and laundry were closed due to renovations, we were not aware of this at booking. Luckily we were able to go to the hostel across the street that allowed us to do laundry there. Also the TV did not work for us in both pods we were in, we tried multiple different tries to use chrome cast and the movies download on the TV. But neither worked. I hope these concerns are brought up in the future, has great potential.

I really enjoyed the single capsules and the open kitchen plan, as well as the quiet/respectful guest arrangements. I will absolutely stay here again, and for longer if possible, as it’s very quaint and it’s in the middle of the town. Thank you for an amazing stay and keep up the amazing work!

The first time that I have stayed in a pod - so comfortable with air conditioning, power, high speed WiFi and a tv.

Awesome Asta took great care of me since I went on the plane (she was sitting behind me) she's wonderful and very keen on her job! She made sure what not to miss in the local area and I'll never forget my giant ice cream.

Value for money................. Walkable No shower gel in the shower. Not enough tissue

Staff was great. Very friendly and helpful.

This property is very unique. Located in the downtown core. Parking is free in the Town Parking areas P1 and P2 overnight 4pm to 10am. Property was clean. Sleeping accommodations were good. Manager was friendly.

The capsule we stayed in was comfortable and a unique and fun experience. The front desk was very helpful with check in. Limited amount of showers/toilets, so in the morning and evenings had to wait.

Very nice couple operate this interesting facility. They work hard to keep it clean and running smoothly. Very convenient for a budget traveler. Secure entry and good security. We brought and cooked our own food in the well equipped kitchen. (With many other guests doing the same) Hostel vibe with visitors from many different countries and lots of ages. We enjoyed the experience but are happy that we brought earplugs. 9 bathrooms for up to 80 guests but we never had trouble finding an open one when we needed it. Right in the middle of downtown so tons of restaurants within walking distance.

Totally recommend staying here, Ive never stayed in a hostel or a pod before, but I was only in town for 2 day and wanted to embrace the backpacking experience. I heartfelt warmly thank the lady on reception and the gentleman in the mess room as they was so helpful and kind and gave a homely feeling to the place. The facilties are well kept and the cleaniness in the washrooms are kept to a very high standard. If your on a short visit and travelling through, stop here. Will definitely stay here again next time. Thank you so much.

This was a really unique and cool stay - I was surprised by how not-claustrophobic I felt in my little pod! There was enough room to sit up, and there were two ways to open the door (one with a button, and one manual, in case anyone is wondering). The manual was as easy to push down as a door's latch bolt. There is a tv in there, which you can connect to on your phone and listen to with headphones provided in the pod.

This was a fantastic experience, I absolutely loved staying at this hostel. Not only were the bathrooms incredibly clean and well kept, but staff were also extremely helpful and very friendly. The capsule itself was brilliant - plenty of space for both myself and my partner. Although when waking up the following morning we did find the air to be incredibly dry (due to the option of having fans on within the capsule). Much like how you feel post a long haul flight. However, this being the only minor negative, it was a fantastic experience and one I would highly recommend. Prior to arriving we received an email with a code to access the hostel front door and a check in code to receive our capsule key from a lockable box within the hostel (all very easy and smooth to do). We were also sent additional information in regards to where is best to park which was incredibly helpful and very much appreciated.
