Great accommodation!
We loved the location within driving distance of town and beach. The bed was comfortable, room & bathroom were very spacious, and the room was clean and seemed modern.

Great hostel!
The Barn had a wonderful atmosphere! Beautiful lobby and common areas. The kitchen was fully stocked and quite large with a beautiful view through the large window. We would definitely stay here again if in the area!

The common kitchen is great. However, watch your head. The ceiling in the double bedroom is low.

While this Hostel facility was newer, beautifully designed and impeccable, sharing a room with 4 beds with other guests just wasn't for us.
Staff was awesome.
We were supposed to stay 2 nights, but opted for a regular room for night 2.
If you don't mind the hostel experience, then you're good to go!

Great location to explore Vik and its gorgeous surroundings. A premium hostel, very clean with friendly staff. The kitchen, lobby, and bar are also very spacious and great to meet other travellers. Only minus was the out of order dishwasher in the kitchen. Otherwise, a great accomodation even for travellers looking to have their own private bedroom like us.
