One of the stove in the kitchen did not work properly, the hot water in the kitchen took a very long time to heat up and there were no sharp knives and no paring knive.

Check in was easy. Great hot water in the showers. Very relaxed atmosphere.

Room got really hot and had to keep the window open.

Private room was basically a hotel room. Very nice and had a great view. Nice bathroom and shower in the room as well. Common space was cool, lots of seating by and more great views. Kitchen was huge and made it convenient to hang out and play cards. I was a little nervous with it being a hostel but ended up being one of the nicer places we stayed through out our two weeks.

The sitting area between the bar, reception, restaurant, and dorms did not work so well. It would have been nice with a more relaxed area. It would also take some load of the kitchen area. Though the place seemed almost new, some things were already starting to wear down - pour materials for e.g., doors and trim had started to swell.

Well functioning kitchen and dining area with a wonderful view over the beach. The double bed in a four-bed dormitory worked better than expected.

Only double beds in the hostel shared rooms

Amazing views, next to the black beach. Great kitchen, cozy social area, huge bathrooms and showers.

Not enough space to leave our backpacks. We went in May, I cannot imagine this in winter time. Also, there were a large group of very rude, loud asian young adults. I understand its a hostel but it was too much.

Lovely place. Nice kitchen. Lovely drinks.

The heater in the room was too high. We woke up suffocated in the middle of the night at 3 and went out in the living room to sleep on the couch. And end up ch3ckout early at 6am

Comfy bed, good location and clean bathrooms

The bathroom is a bit cold because it's separate from the room and therefore is without a heater. But, generally, It's not too bad.

The view of this suite is nice! The room is modern and all the equipment, including the kitchen and bathroom, is very new and clean! The room space is large, feel so relaxed staying here.

The Barn has been the best hostal we have been- reason: the vibe. Quite some guests, from all ages, also young and the bar ensures there is people in the common area chilling, gaming and interacting with each other. I would strongly recommend it.

The rooms were a little smart to keep our luggage properly. I felt if only we could have some place to open our bags and a little bit of more light in the room.

The property felt very clean, staff very helpful. I found the beds were soft n comfortable. The kitchen had lot of equipment’s and crockery n cutlery with the glass window. There were lot of wash basins, toilets and shower area so no waiting.

The view is amazing. The bed is comfortable, and very soundproof. My room is right by the shower and toilet, but I can hear nothing. Nice and spacious kitchen

I stayed in the a dormroom, but the bed felt very private because of the curtains. Very clean. Nice bar/recreational area.

Like in most of Iceland, rooms do not have ventilation and someone in the shared room kept closing the window at night, so it got very hot.

Good common areas and very clean.

High price for a bed in a six beds dormitory. Sinks in the common area a bit dirty, people are quite disreagarding. This is also because this is a big place, so a lot of mixed people... Also the kitchen was pretty dirty. The food from the bar was not great either.

Confy beds, amazing decor and design of the whole place, great location.

The kitchen gets a bit crowded during dinner time

Very cool hostess with an amazing view over the black beach and the mountains. Also the bar server really nice icelandic beer.

If you carry valuables expensive stuff (for example camera gear) I wouldn't feel very safe, because all spaces are shared. That's to be expected of a hostel of course. They offered me some lockers, but didn't feel reassured. Didn't want to leave things in the car either. (No worries. It's a safe country. Chances of something happening are low.) Rooms are small, beds like coffins and it was a bit chilly. You get what you pay I guess (for Iceland standards). The room door didn't close properly all the way. Also it attracts lots of younger age people that make more noise. (That goes to positive if you're 20😛)

It's a first time for me in a hostel and I can say overall experience was very nice. It's very clean, has a lot of spaces outside the room to chill, bathrooms, showers and a big kitchen with a view to have lunch or breakfast. Nice decoration, well organised, easy access, check in and parking. The view outside is amazing! I do recommend it for a short stay on budget.

No hand shower head.

The kitchen is big that it can restore a lot foods. There are many shower rooms and toilets.

The most expensive hostel in Iceland but no hot water when you need it. I stayed there two non-consecutive nights but the only time there was hot water available was after 2am on the first night (I've checked it before at 10pm and was cold). In the morning it was fine again. So I believe if you are early enough you can also enjoy a warm shower.

Bed was super comfortable, helpful staff, very spacious kitchen and great location
