The location is great, beds were comfy and it was very clean. There is another hostel in the same building so make sure you find the right door for Baron's.
Designated parking area for the hostel. Very walkable to the downtown area. They made sure I had all the information I needed to check-in during their off hours so I wouldn't be locked out. Wonderful place to stay.
A bit pricey but clean, safe, well managed and located.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff was great. Good communication for after-hours check in. Difficult to find the entry when I got there, though, as there was no on-site signage, and the instructions were just to find the “correct” entrance as there are two hostels in the building. Place was clean and the bed was good. No big lockers for bags which was tough. Also very noisy and noise travelled through the hallways and into the rooms.
Considering Baron’s is a hostel, my teen and I felt safe and comfortable during our 2 night stay. The hostel was clean and offered us everything we needed. The location is fantastic. Parking is free. We went to the affordable pool / hot tubs next door and loved them.
Kitchen and dining area good and clean. Staff very approachable and willing to help. Location is very near to grocery stores Bonus and Extra. Also, very near Hallgrimskirkja.
