Highly recommend!
Amazing stay at The Barn! The hostel was very new and clean. There was a full kitchen for guests to use, lots of chairs to lounge and relax. Great location and incredible views from the hostel. Was able to see the Northern Lights from the parking lot :)

This one our one Iceland stay we were kinda dreading as we were nervous about staying in a hostel with so many others. We were shocked by this beautiful place and wished we could've spent more nights here! Beds were very comfy and clean, bathrooms, showers, and sinks were all clean and designed especially for this type of stay. The kitchen was crowded, but appeared to be well stocked. No complaints - this place is clean and safe with respectful guests all trying to save a little money and explore this beautiful country!

4/10 Fair

second floor had so many rooms, but only 2 bathroom to share. and they all have showers in the same room as the toilet. which means if 2 people are showering, you can't even use the bathroom on the same floor as your room. The sinks inside the 2 bathrooms and outside are all extremely small. This is for sharing. but their sink size is probably smaller than some of the hotel's sink that we had in our own room. The bathroom had no shampoo. not even conditioner. The room itself was tiny and slanted. on our 1 week trip in iceland, this hotel was the most not worth the money. we have paid like $100 less for something better in other area.

Stayed 2 nights here in a room with the private bathroom. It very well exceeded my expectations. Easy check in, kind staff, lovely bar. The locks/handles were confusing at first but I learned very fast! Location was great for me, I like being tucked away.. town is only about 7 min away. I was able to catch the northern lights here which was AMAZING. There’s plenty of parking but it can fill up quick at night even then I found a close spot so I have zero complaints. 10/10. Out of a week stay in Iceland I would say this was my favorite.

This is the hostel that makes you want to be a solo traveler. The property was very nice, new, and had a modern feel. I'd love to come back and spend more time there!

This is an adorable hostel. Great kitchen area. We stayed in a private room with a shared bathroom which as adults we were a bit concerned about but ended up being no issue. The only issue was how loud the keys/doors are when people are coming and going from their rooms. Maybe if they are ever going to upgrade their door locking systems, make them quieter.

It is a big place so lots of people and the kitchen is busy and noisy. Not a down side but just what it is.

Very clean space with everything you would need. Was glad there was an abundance of private showers and bathrooms to use. The dining and kitchen space was also great and spacious.

10/10 Exceptional

The location being right next to the black sand beach and an 8 minutes drive to Vík made this very convenient to end the day. The bunk beds to the shared bedroom were full-double in size and the thick curtains were nice to get some privacy and block light. Kitchen was equipped adequately. Everything was clean, no big complaints! A laundry room/service would’ve been nice, but there wasn’t one as far as I know.

We had a room with private bathroom, which the Barn doesn't even show on their own website. The room was nice, but the heating was turned off when we arrived. Once we figured out how to turn it on, it took long for the room to warm up. Other than that, it was a nice middle ground between the hostel and the luxury suites ("black beach suites").

Excellent location for a hostel. Didn't stay in the dorms, but the rooms punch way above their weight and exceeded expectations. Love the proximity to Vik & Reynisfjara beach.

We enjoyed our stay at The Barn. We spent a lot of our time in the common guest area due to some office work, and we found it quite pleasant. The shared bathrooms and showers were clean and well-maintained. However, the sleeping arrangements were a bit challenging for us, especially for me as I am not used to tight spaces. Despite this, we look forward to staying here again on our next trip to Iceland.
