to get started.

Incredible location almost at Reynisfjara beach and very close to Vik. Very posh hostel with plenty of showers and toilets and thick privacy curtains enclosing the beds, which in summer is very much appreciated. The staff was also very helpful and lovely. Beautiful views looking out over the beach from the room I stayed in. Highly recommend!

The only downside is there really isn’t enough room for your luggage but if youre not staying for long and you can grab a few things from your car it’s fine.
The property is very stylish and very clean for a hostel. Easy check in.

“Perfectly organised place!”

Booking says you can pay in €, but it's not possible. So be prepared for a double conversion fee or better use your multi-currency card ;)
Unusual dark design, wonderful views and clear air all around. Walking distance to the Black Beach and pretty close to the puffins. More than enough space for your vehicle. Huge and fully equipped kitchen. The bar - so you can try some Icelandic beverages - and the piano in the main hall. Perfectly organised hotel. Doesn't really feel like a barn, sorry. Great place to stay!

The rooms were a little cramped so unpacking and packing became somewhat tedious
The location of the property is excellent It offers a bar and coffee machine which always comes in handy There are a lot of clean toilets, so that's a big plus point if you're travelling in a group and planning early departures The place offers good bedding and towels Restaurants can be found in the nearby town of Vik

Hard to cook in the kitchen as they will have too many people cooking as well. It’s hard to share 2 stove with so many people during dinner time.
Overall it’s great. The toilet is clean and spacious. The room is clean.
