I haven`t stayd in this hostel, but now I know that I am deffinitely not going to. I have tried to find out the conditions of a car rental with Adam car rental, so I wrote an e-mail asking for the conditions and insurance. I got a reply - copy from the web site. Then I wrote again, what kind... more

Dear All, It is our honest advise to try avoid staying at Adam Hostel at all costs. We had boked this hostel and tried to confirm the reservation and all other details by calling them. The person who answered was very rude, refused to provide us with any informatio. As a result, we had to cancel the reservation since we... more

The main problem with the hotel is that the bathroom is poorly ventilated and the water on the floor is not draining properly. The bathroom actually has a rubber wipe for pushing the water into the drain or else the floor is constantly wet. Yes you're expected to do this yourself after showering. When I asked the owner if we... more

Rudest guy I've ever met at a hotel. The place stunk. It was a rip off. About the only remotely decent thing is location, and the shop downstairs, so you could get a bottle of water. Bathroom was shared, and putrid. This is a hostel at best. And as a hostel it would be ok. But then it should be... more

This was without doubt the worst experience I have ever had in a Hotel/Guesthouse/Public Toilet. The rooms were small (2 meters wide with two single beds) The sides were higher than the matterss and therefore every few hours when you turned in your sleep you smashed your face on the edge.They were filthy (they seemed to add dirt daily). It... more

Adam Guesthouse is situated at a convenient location. It's on the street running down from the famous church- Hallgrimskirkja, and you can even walk from the BSI Bus Terminal. There is a convenient store next to the guesthouse. We arrived at 24:30, and the lady who let us in was very nice. However, after that we didn't see much of... more

I was, to say the least, astonished to log on to Trip Advisor and see that the Adam Guesthouse has two five-star reviews. We arrived there after a week walking in the interior, staying in tents or communal huts. All we really wanted was a comfy bed and a clean room. A warm welcome would have been a pleasant bonus.... more

I chose this guesthouse as it wasn't too expensive and had it's own wee kitchen. Arrived in the early hours of the morning and were shown to our room promptly by the friendly (and a little eccentric!) owner. It was clean and had plenty of space. The location is right in the middle of everything, and is perfect for sightseeing,... more

We started out staying at a much more expensive hotel and moved to this place after a few days and we glad we made the move. This place used to be a hostel several years ago and is converted into something more like a hotel but still retains some hostel-like qualities. We;re not the types to stay in hostels, which... more
