Great location, easy to find with navigation guiding the way. Clean, comfortable, stylish room with radiant heat floors, and a giant gorgeous tub. We were aiming to catch the Kalsoy ferry early so skipped breakfast so Lilja, the host, packed lunches for us instead. So thankful and appreciated, she went above and beyond.
