Very comfortable beds, and the way the bunks are designed it feels like you’re in your own private pod! Unfortunately, I did not catch the name of the owner, but he gave our group a warm welcome, telling stories of the property’s history and giving recommendations of things to do in the area. The kitchen was large with multiple cooking stations and plenty of seating (also very clean and up to date with all the necessary appliances, pots, pans, dishes etc.). Bathrooms were clean and modern. The whole property was gorgeous, very new building, peaceful, it was a truly restful atmosphere. The view from our window was beautiful and we saw northern lights from the property. About 30-40 min it es outside Vik it was a good midpoint spot for seeing more of the southwest and not go too far from Reykjavík. Would absolutely stay there again next time we’re in Iceland. One of the best hostels I have ever stayed in!"

Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. When we arrived, our room was not ready at the posted check-in time, and we had to wait over an hour past check-in before we could enter. When we finally got into the room, it had a very strong odor, even after it had been cleaned. The private jacuzzi that we paid extra for was also not usable. We had to call the staff for help because the cover was strapped down differently than the instructions we were given over the phone. Once staff came to assist and we opened it, it was clear that the jacuzzi did not have adequate water in it and could not be used. When we asked if we could move to another room, we were told that this was the only room available with a jacuzzi, which was the primary feature we had booked the room for. Overall, we paid extra for an amenity that we were unable to use, and the delayed check-in and room conditions made the experience even more frustrating."

You're required to buy a separate bus ticket in order to get to the hotel. We weren't told until a couple weeks before our stay that a bus was required to reach the property. We were stunned to find that bus tickets for our family of four were almost TWICE as expensive as the $285 room we booked for a single night. The property's website told us we would be reimbursed only 80% of the cost. We were a little disappointed, but were content that we were able to cancel the reservation. We contacted the property via email. To our surprise, they told us we would lose the entire cost of the booking. Ultimately, we booked elsewhere and disputed the charge with our credit card company. They ruled in our favor and we received a credit for the full cost of the hotel room."
