Room was fine for the price. Plenty of bathrooms and showers since we were sharing. Staff should have communicated that the pipes were being worked on and that we needed to shower early since the water was off before check out and I couldn’t shower. The buffet breakfast was very nice, dinner was also nice and cozy.

Lovely property far enough from the highway you could not hear it and got to hear the chickens instead. Staff was great with gluten free options for dining. Our building had a common room which was great for watching the World Cup with folks from all over the world.

Everything was very good. Even though we had shared bathrooms and toilets, we only had to wait a few minutes on one occasion (and we were there for two nights). The location was great on a farm. I highly recommend it.

This was the first time I stayed in a hotel with a shared bathroom. I was wary at first, but it turned out to be a pleasant experience. We never had to wait when we needed to use it. Breakfast was average. Friendly staff at checked in.

Loved this guest house! It was so cute! We were initially a little worried about the shared bathroom but we never had any issues or ever had to wait for a bathroom to be open. The breakfast that is included was amazing and the staff was so nice. Highly recommend!

We loved staying here. Paulina and Tomic were very friendly and had helpful tips for traveling around Iceland (how to check road and weather conditions). The lamb dinner was outstanding! And the breakfast had many different dishes to choose from. Everything was very clean and the kitchen in the guest house was well stocked. It’s about 20+ minutes west of Vik. We would stay here again.
