Great place with spacious rooms. Floor in the main lobby is also heated. Showers/bathrooms are clean with good water pressure. Check out time is a bit early which is the only downside (10am)

Good place to stay

Good place to stay, clean and comfortable. Shared space is convenient. Decent location considering it is a small town with few options. However 20-30 min drive into heart of Vik. No gas/stores closer

This was our first time staying at a Guesthouse and can say it was a positive experience. The place was clean and you have access to a communal kitchen. The rooms were quiet and the bed was comfy. They had blackout blinds but the 2" gap between them make them less effective. Everyone seemed to respect each others' space. We were hesitant about sharing bathrooms but it was no big deal. It would be nice to have an extra towel or two, and a place to hang them in the room. Also, you have to use individual hand drying towels in the shared bathroom which is fine but that stack ran out very quickly.

Very interesting property! Would have loved to know more about it since it seemed like a sheep farm but I wasn’t sure if it’s still used. Interesting building in the back as well. Scenery is beautiful. Big common space with 3 bathrooms shared by the rooms!
