Very clean! Loved the coffee station and relaxing common rooms. My room was cozy and warm. Great location for exploring the city and getting buses and shuttles for airport and excursions

The room was clean, albeit a bit small. The walls are practically paper thin so bring a pair of noise cancelling headphones. Despite the noise, it is a perfectly nice place to stay and relatively inexpensive, as well as being in a great location. If you are on a budget, then it is worth staying here.

Now called Old Town and not Kastali, I found the hostel to be in a great location, quiet despite the being well occupied, the rooms fine, and the bathrooms kept clean the entire time I was there. Pretty nice, actually.

Great place to stay in Reykjavik if you’re traveling on a budget. Basic room, but if you’re only there to sleep like I was, it’s enough. Shared bathroom but very spacious and clean. Excellent location in the old town, the main things to do/see are in a 15 minute walk radius.

8/10 Very good

I stayed a few nights in this place, close to everything, Bus stop 1 is on the back of the hotel, centric, quiet area, restaurants not too far, the only bad thing is the room that is small and if you stay single room you have to take your luggage to last floor

I had a great stay at Kastali Guesthouse. The room was so sweet and beautiful, the bathrooms where always nice and clean. Walking distance to the airwaves festival. Was amazing. And I’ll be coming back.

We enjoyed our stay, our room was clean, and it was in a great spot to explore the city. There is no parking, so we paid for parking on the street.

Clean room for 4 adults, nothing special, but we were able to check in 1 hour early. Parking lots are close by - we had no problems with parking. Helpful staff. It’s a busy place but everything went smoothly. Fabulous location in the heart of a Reykjavík.

10/10 Exceptional

My first time staying in a hostel. Never once had an issue with shower or bathroom use. I also realized that a large room is pointless when you only need it for sleeping. It was clean, comfy, and in the city centre. Perfect location for restaurants and nightlife. Bus stop right around the corner was convenient too.

Don’t expect too much. You’ll get a bed and a shower, no frills. Good price. Excellent location. They provide you with a towel. The shared showers and bathrooms are clean and never busy. I love that my room had its own sink with hot water, it was very practical. Good wifi.

8/10 Very good

The staff was accommodating when we arrived very early, allowing us to store our bags while we went on a tour. It is disconcerting to talk to staff through a "Ring"-like device (they are not on site all the time). For it being a large guesthouse, it was very quiet - we rarely saw other guests and WC/showers wer always available. Very good value for Iceland!
