A small and intimate hotel about 15 minutes from the black sand beach near Vik. A bit isolated but quiet and convenient stop on the ring road with great food (dinner, which you have to reserve ahead and the main is a choice between char, lamb and a salad), yummy cheese board and the food was cooked well and tasty. Good breakfast selection although we did not know we could have gotten freshly scrambled eggs until we had filled up on the other breakfast choices. Spacious room with deck which would have been great to see an aurora from but unfortunately not during our stay. Shower could have been bigger, only negative.

I have no idea how this “hotel” is highly rated. We had a very strong smell of urine in our room that wouldn’t go away. We encountered many spiders and flies in the room and near windows. Staff are not pleasant to deal with.

Don’t let the exterior of the building scare you.

The exterior of the building looked like a tired old motel, we joked that it reminded us of Schitt’s Creek. However, we learned at check in that the building was once a school and the seven rooms (apparently each a classroom) were very spacious - plenty of room to spread out. The room was clean, bed was comfortable, shower in bathroom was tiny. Staff members were friendly. Breakfast include delicious home made breads and scrambled eggs. As for the exterior, as we traveled through the area we realized that most buildings looked similar.

The room was clean and modern. The staff did a good job of check in and breakfast. Best was the location for exploring the area both on the beach and the glacier. We were happy with our choice.

Cosy and lovely place

Well designed little hotel. Spacious and comfortable room. Friendly staff. Convenient location for sightseeing even though it is out of town. The price is much better than the hotels in town. The breakfast was good.

Quiet comfort and good food near Vik.

Quiet location off main highway near to Vik. Very good dinner and nice breakfast with scrambled eggs if requested. Rooms seem to be well sound-proofed but floor surface in common hallway makes rolling a suitcase quite noisy.
