Thin walls meant you could hear your neighbours talking. Also found many hairs on linen and towels.

Sadly booked the wrong date and customer service was extremely unhelpful and unwilling to assist. Lost out on over three hundred dollars.

Quiet country guesthouse on the way to Vik
Lovely remote guesthouse with great views. We stayed in room 12 with the winter white theme and loved it. Totally renovated. A few hooks in bathroom as well as a mirror in the room would be a good addition. Standard kettle with instant coffee and tea as well as fridge and hairdryer and bathrobes provided in Our room. Bed was comfy. Room was clean. Tracy, the owner was lovely and her dog Nero is the sweetest. We saw the northern lights here and it was out of this world. So many stars and the darkness was magical! They do have a restaurant but it is just for breakfast so need a car as it’s remote. Thank you Tracy for your help!!

The views on both sides of the property are beautiful- the ocean on one side and a glacier on the other. The guesthouse is one story with only about 10 rooms with private baths. There is an optional breakfast in a breakfast room with those great views. The beds are comfortable. We were traveling with our adult son for a wedding and we were all comfortable. The owner is very nice and we loved their dog!

Gracious hostess at a comfy inn near Vik. You’ll need a car to get to and from town, but was very pleased with our stay.

The hotel was in a relatively remote area but was very updated, cozy and comfortable. The view was great. The host was friendly. There was a little kids corner in the living room with play kitchen and toys that our daughter LOVED. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much.
