One person wrote: \"This is the perfect place to stay in Reykjavik if you want to save money but still have your privacy.<\/p>\n
\"The pods were a little slice of luxury after a long day, with a stocked tv and plenty of space - enough to change in there. The space pods are really cool and would recommend to stay at least once.<\/p>\n
\"Bit pricier than other Reykjavik hostels but worth it. Breakfast is good with freshly made waffles. Conveniently located opposite a supermarket and a short walk from the centre of Reykjavik.\"<\/p>\n

Another added: \"Come for the cool beds, stay for the breakfast! I was only going to stay a night to try out the pods, since it's 2-3 times the price of the cheaper hostels.<\/p>\n
\"But man, 1300 ISK for breakfast gets you unlimited waffles, fruit, meats and cheese slices, toast (Peanut butter! A rarity for homesick Canadians!), basic cereal, coffee, etc.<\/p>\n
\"Otherwise, the hostel is good. Nice big showers (on sulphury geothermal water though), clean bathroom and bedrooms. Awesome common areas.\"<\/p>\n
