The Barn - Hostel

The Barn - Hostel

8/10 Good
"My husband and I enjoyed our room at the Barn. It was very much over our budget but we booked late and there were few options for a room with a private bathroom in Vik. Despite the expense, we were happy with the size and cleanliness of the space. Our room was set in a seperate single-floor building with just a few units, so it was quiet and also had a lovely view of the surrounding hills. It looked like a newer building but was a little worn in areas - stained blinds, some worn paint and a loose sink faucet. This didn't affect our 1-night stay but could be a small area for improvement."

"Hidden Gem. Its hard to find hotels in the area. We stayed one night and found this location convenient since everything within Vik area was already booked or hard to find even when booking few months in advance. Not a lot of breakfast choices but that wasn't an issue for us."
