It is very quiet place for a good night sleep. Our room is very clean and spacious. The kitchen is an shared with other travelers but we hardly see anyone there. There are other rooms are share bathroom/WC as well. But our room has our own shower and toilet.

The property was in a great location. The hosts added a temporary ramp so we could access the building in wheelchairs. The ramp was very steep and could be oriented the other way so it could be less steep. Otherwise the room was fine and we used our own shower chair to access the shower. The kitchen could use a few more amenities like a dish towel and some paper towels to make it easier to clean up. Decaf tea would be a great addition.

The Guesthouse is on a big piece of land with some abandoned buildings in the back. We almost missed the guesthouse building because the sign is not easier readable. The host has left the key and information of the room in an envelope at the door, so everything is self helped. The place is clean with a shared kitchen. The room and kitchen are bright.

Quiet, comfortable stay on a farm that was just outside of Vik and close to Dyrholaey and Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. There are 5 rooms with a shared kitchen, sitting area and 2 bathrooms. The bathrooms were modern and spacious, and even though they were 'shared,' there was always at least one open whenever needed. The other guests were quiet and considerate, so we would definitely stay here again.

Good location and price so it was worth a nights stay but it’s nothing special. Beds hurt our backs but our backs aren’t great. Shared kitchen was ok to put things in fridge overnight. Shower was good, soap but no shampoo. It felt like a dorm, you could hear everything.

This place seemed over priced for what you get... The accommodation was clean. However the fridge smelled of old food. So should be emptied more regularly. Bed was comfortable. Had a private bathroom which was nice.
