You wont see staff but the directions are clear. Everything very clean, private bathrooms for a hostel is crazy good plus airport shuttle. Its not next to anything at all to visit or walk to though.

Clean pod. Fun because we felt like we were in space or being cryogenically frozen! Pretty comfy and fine for 2 people (if you like to snuggle a little). Easy check in. Staff was kind and let us store our baggage in the lounge room for the day after we checked out. Nice shared kitchen area with fridge, microwave, coffee machine, air fryer
Verified review

6/10 Good

The pods are comfortable enough for one night , very convenient location, clean bathrooms, kitchen. The only thing which is disturbing is that the pods are squeaky every single time someone moves in them. Especially when you are in the lower one you hear every move the person above you makes.

You get to stay in a pod! How cool is that. The pods are comfy and the bathrooms and showers are clean. A 5 minute cab ride to the airport, and a 45 min bus ride or drive to Reykjavik. This place is perfect if you just need a place to sleep and to get ready for your adventures. Staying here and rent a car is the way to go. Also, Biryani is a short walk away and they have great food.

A simple place to get some rest. Clean and efficient. This is a small business and not a chain. It was very nice if you have a layover and need some sleep.

The pods are a clever way to have inexpensive rooms for short stays. Checking in is easy. You have a locker in which to store your belongings. Your key card is in there along with clean towels. To access the pod, you need to use the key card. Once inside, put the key card in the slot to enable the lights and other electronics. It is fairly large for what it is. There is a fan to help with those that might feel claustrophobic. Because of the size of the space, I never felt claustrophobic.

Much better than anticipated! Pods are unconventional. Like big Tupperware containers but surprisingly comfortable and very warm. The bathrooms were shared, but individual bathrooms with showers. They were kept very clean. All of the guests were quiet and respectful of others.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

I love the concept, but I was disappointed by the cleanliness. Unfortunately, my pod #12 had a dirty blanket cover. It looked like ketchup or something similar had stained. Luckily, I was alone and there are 2 sets in each pod. It was nice that the kitchen had plenty of dishes, etc, and free coffee. The gross thing was that quite a few coffee cups were cleaned by visitors very poorly. Of about 12 cups at least 6 were visually dirty without moving them much. 2 had coffee drips on the inside after they had been "cleaned" by visitors. This is not the hotel's fault, but it is a bad system. My shuttle bus driver was very nice. The food at the nearby restaurants were better than I had planned. Solid choices within a 10 min walk. FYI: Not kid friendly as it is very quiet.

Great location near airport. Self check in was great as we arrived at 2 a.m.

What you see in the ad is what you get. It is shared accommodations, but it is clean and the other guests were respectful. The bathrooms/showers were very clean. I will be back for short stays as it is a great low cost option while staying in near Keflavik. Don't expect any communication with staff or operators. It is an automated business without human contact.

Very easy to check in, clean and modern WC units, pods themselves were not claustrophobic because of fairly tall ceiling. The kitchen with fantastic coffee machine and even air fryer was very much appreciated.

We enjoyed our stay here on our layover from London to America. The staff was helpful and let us store our luggage while we explored the area. There were some toiletries to use and food to eat from other travelers. I would stay here again if I had a night layover in Iceland.

This stay was a wonderful experience. I’d never stayed in a pod before but everyone in the area was super considerate of being as quiet as possible and helpful. The space inside of the pod was more than expected and it was very comfortable.
