Really nice hostel, they also have an amazing boot dryer which was very popular and much appreciated as my boots were soaked when I arrived. They provide tea and coffee and a great breakfast in the morning. The hostel felt very homely and enjoyed hanging out with the other guests. It's a bit of a walk down the hill (and back up) to the main town but if you're in a car really easy to find and plenty of parking.

Walkable to town

Hostel for aprox 50 people with just 2 showers (the third one was being reformed) and 4 WC (2 of them with the showers and 1 without door). They leave you the sheets to make your own bed. Very expensive for the services.

Good breakfast

House accepts too many guests. In the morning is too crowded so you can't really enjoy your breakfast. House has only one working shower so it gets bussy again. Our room was beside the bathroom (with the shower) so we could hear each and every guest using it. Because there is so many people in one house it gets very loude and disturbing. So i was happy to have ear plugs with me.

The highlight of our trip were their dogs. They love cuddling and playing with you.

Nothing!

Everything! We stayed 2 nights in our exploring of South Iceland. We were so cozy and comfortable in one of the cottages. Our children loved saying hello to the chickens and dogs. Breakfast was truly great with the warm homemade bread and waffles.

Not enough bathrooms for the number of people in the hostel.

Staff were super friendly and organized a baby cot on short notice.

It's a dorm, so you can expect to hear what's happening in the other rooms. :D We got a room in attic so you can feel the humidity, beds weren't the comfiest ones and you needed to make your bed by yourself.

Very nice host, amazing breakfast, good and convenient location!

good location

There is only one shower room for the whole floor/building. One more would be better.

The refresh made bread was a killer... it was so delicious. Loved it.

Ran out of hot water for showers for all 5 family members one evening after long day hiking.

Super Friendly family and staff. Great location amd accomodations were perfect for trip.

The place was fully booked so two bathrooms were not enough for the entire house of people. We had to wait hours to take a shower. The bed wasn’t comfortable at all, and very noisy, thin walls made us hear all sounds from surrounding rooms. The breakfast wasn’t as good as the offers says. Bunch of products were finished when we get there, and the breakfast room is tiny and too crowded. The price of the accommodation was too high as for such poor quality.

The property is nicely located in the Vik town close to the Black Beach, up on the hill. This is animals friendly place and the studf is very friendly.

There could be more showers.

Good location, comfy rooms and extraordinary breakfast. Waffles and bread were stunning :) PLUS cute dogs and a nice view.

Shower room was not clean for one bathroom. Price is too high for a tiny room.

Very few bathrooms, some of which were unclean. Rooms in the basement which were quite smelly with everyone drying their clothing there (tip for the hostel: invest in some room where people can hang their wet clothes on a clothesline or something...every surface on the floor of our room was covered in wet clothing). Additionally creaky and very narrow bunks. The door also kept rattling in the night which was an annoying noise to hear constantly. Kitchen was pretty nasty with only dirty sponges, lots of food trash, and dish clothes that were totally wet and were dropped on the floor and then hung up again. Overall, this seems like a hostel that would worth maximally 15 Euros a night (not 50 Euros per *Bed*). I personally regretted staying here and wished I would have paid a little extra money for a place that I would have enjoyed staying at!

While I didn't eat the breakfast it looked like there were a lot of different options. Also there is a nice view, however most things in Vik are quite a walk away and along a relatively busy road

- beds were not comfortable and we had to make and strip them ourselves - there were not enough bathrooms for the number of people there - there were tons of people in the common area and at breakfast who were both loud and made us concerned about Covid - not enough seating at breakfast or enough room - our most expensive and least pleasant stay on the trip

- breakfast was good - they have dogs and the owner that we met was nice

Smelly rooms Unfriendly, unhelpful owner

I would never stay here again. Our room stank very badly. I asked the owner to deal with it but she refused to do so. I had trouble sleeping as a result of the smell.

There is only one shower for the entire hostel. It looks like they are trying to update one of the bathrooms to maybe include another shower.

It was in an awesome location and the breakfast was delicious!

Terrible soundproof. Dirtier than on photos.

On our upper floor there was only one joint toilet/shower room for like 5 rooms (2 of which were multi-bed). There was another bathroom on the lowest floor, but you better took your shower in the middle of the day, and timed your toilet needs. It seems though that the hostel is working on it and building more showers and toilets. That will be an investment well spent!! Kitchen is very basic and could use a few more pots, drainers, utensils beyond the very basic.

It's a very charming house, with dogs and chickens outside. The location is perfect - awesome views of the village, coast and mountains. It's easy to find and there is a nice 'back path' through the meadows to walk to the village. The breakfast is AMAZING. Definitely didn't expect anything like that in a hostel - waffles with homemade jam and whipped cream, ham, cheese, salmon, choice of breads. That was really a highlight. Rooms are functional, quiet, and ours had a nice view into nature. There is plenty of parking outside, and nice seating benches and tables if you prefer to have a picnic outside. For a hostel, the price feels rather steep for a double room, but it's a really nice place.
