We had booked for 2 nights but, as the weather was turning, the owner called to advise us to not travel and that they would not charge is for the first night. This was a great help and also helped out the couple staying who were unable to travel on as planned.

When we arrived the welcome was warm and the property immaculate and well equipped. There was homemade jam and cheese to go with waffles and crackers for breakfast. We had a lovely chat with the owner who was keen for us to get the most from our visit and gave great dining recommendations.

After lots of driving in some pretty grotty weather this was a haven and it was a shame we had only one night.

A haven

Friendly host who made us pancake mix and home made jelly and spread. The room has a living room attached which has a full kitchen and a beautiful TV with Apple TV where you watch Netflix. We went to the nearby super market and cooked ourselves a nice meal.

Friendly host and great location.

This was a shared home, owner lives on one side and three bedrooms and bath on the other side for the guests. Included a fully stocked kitchen with dishwasher, living room with large TV and the beds and one bath. We used one bedroom and a British couple with their two children in the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. Great location, within walking distance to restaurants and the black beach. Gorgeous views. The host was very friendly and recommended dinner options for us. Breakfast was not included, but the host left waffle mix and some jams, crackers, and oatmeal in the kitchen for us. A no shoe facility, so you will leave them in the mud room when you enter. I would definitely stay again. Bed was comfortable and house was very clean. The Lava Show down the street was cool to see, so recommend if you have a chance to go.

Location is Excellent

Beautifully appointed and presented guesthouse.  Very friendly owner. Shared toilet and bathroom but these were again beautifully appointed with a range of Icelandic soaps and shampoos. Although the guesthouse does not provide breakfast, there was a range of jams and spreads along with waffle mix in the fridge for the use of guests.  Lovely communal living room area with large TV.  Within walking distance of everything in Vik.  Thoroughly recommend.

Excellent guesthouse

Very clean, nice location, friendly and helpful hosts, roomy guest sitting areas.  Would definitely recommend.  Modern and up to date furniture and appliances.    Kitchen facility available.  Enjoyed our stay.

2019 summer vacation to Iceland

We stayed to nights here. The location is within 10 minutes walk to most restaurants. There is a fun hike if you walk up the street from the rental. Our rental had private parking and 2 bedrooms and a private bath. The rental had a small kitchen and table as well. The beds were fairly comfortable. The guests next to us could be heard until 11p at night. This may be an issue for some. The host is very welcoming and fast to answer emails. I would say the price was expensive for what you got, but that may be the average for the area.

Good location

This stopping point in Vík will make you feel just at home. There are only three private rooms at this guesthouse, with one shared bathroom, kitchen, and living space. It is plenty of room. The hosts are extremely welcoming, there are 11 restaurants within walking distance, and everything was very clean. I only rated it 4 stars because I think it was a bit too expensive for the small town of Vík, but it fit in with overpriced Icelandic form. 

Clean, Quaint, Hospitable 

We were 4 friends traveling together, so we had a 2 bedroom, en-suite area where the 4 of us shared 1 bathroom.  It was perfect since we had a living room and dining area where we could have a few drinks, sit and talk, as well as make breakfast before heading out for our next adventure.  

One minor issue was there is a branch over the kitchen area with ornaments on it.  One person in our group is very tall and hit his head on it every time he walked by.  Just a minor nuisance, but enough for us to have a good laugh!

Private suite

The home was clean, easy to find, and central to the area. The host was welcoming, and the room was clean. I didn't realize it was a shared bathroom (I overlooked this), and it is also quite easy to hear people in the rooms next to you... I am still trying to figure out Icelandic pricing. Everything is expensive, but for the same price in other places you get an actual hotel room with breakfast... I could imagine a place like this (3 bedrooms, one bath, with access to a kitchen) would be great for groups or families traveling together.

Clean, nice, shared bathroom

Charming place but 3 double rooms share 1 bath, and while it’s nice to have a big , very well equipped kitchen and a few things (crackers, cheese spreads, waffle batter but no bread or fruit, provided “for free“) to make your own breakfast , one might expect an elaborate, prepared breakfast for the price you’re paying   We would have expected hand towels to be provided as well.  
The room was average size but if you’re big, you might not be able to squeeze past to the far side
That said, the owner was very hospitable and helpful.
