Good amount of space in the apartment. Very clean. This was the cheapest place we could find at reasonably short notice but was pretty expensive for what we got. Very good base for exploring the Snaefelsness peninsula.

Avoid if possible

- something in the room have myself and my wife food poisoning; either the coffee or the spoons/cups. - the blinds don’t really cover the windows properly so during summer when the sun doesn’t set, lots of light comes in and it’s hard to sleep. - the shower is tiny- almost unusable. - the lady on the phone could’ve been a bit friendlier.

Spacious and clean. Towels are changed daily. Handy as it was near eateries and supermarket. There was a kitchen where you can make simple breakfast.

Huge room at a good price

Staying in guest houses for most of our trip, it was such a nice surprise to have a massive room and private bathroom to yourself. There is also a kitchenette if you want to cook. There is no formal check in or check out. You get emailed your room and door code, so have it ready. Short walk to the supermarket, restaurants, and the waterfall in town.

The hotel is dated there is no lift or reception area or staff available, however the rooms are large and have everything you need. The beds need replacing the mattresses are so soft you sink completely.

poor management!!!

Very very poor service!!! We just walked into our room that was reserved few months ago to find that the kitchen sink is full of dirty dishes, rubbish bag on the entry door, rubbish in the bathroom and a pair of shoes inside the room too. Crumbs of food and empty bottle of juice on the dining table. The "phone number" is constantly busy and we have been trying to get hold of the owners or managers for about and hour now with three emails and multiple attempts to make the phone call. This place is disgraceful!!!

Comfortable enough.

Confusion at check in. After about half an hour in the car we finally got through to someone on the phone. Apparently the motel over the road handles the bookings . We then were given a room for 2 instead of 3 . They fixed that and all was fine.

Nice quite place, was a little unsure if the room was for us at first as it looked like someone had just stayed before us with trash and towels. It was a great place to stay for the night and would stay again.

Night at Welcome at Olafsvik

The place is next to the main road in Olafsvik so it was easy to find. Apartman was avail by code. Everything was nice and tidy. Microwave and fridge avail that was the most important for us. Sufficient place for our group.

Alles ok, lediglich die Matratze war Horror…aber sonst geht‘s für eine Nacht. Die Unterkunft ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber es war sauber, es war alles vorhanden. Das Zimmer war groß und geräumig, alles gut.

avoid this property

Normally, the property sends us the access code 24 to 48 hours before our arrival, but we did not receive it. On the day of our arrival, we tried calling their phone number multiple times, but no one answered. Concerned that it might be a scam, we decided to arrive early, around 3 PM. When we arrived, there was a phone on-site that we used to call them repeatedly. Eventually, a lady answered and told us she was busy and couldn't provide the code, instructing us to come back after 4 PM. When we returned at 4 PM, a man was there who helped us call the lady (presumably the manager). We finally received the access code, but it was only after entering the room that we received an email with the room number and access code. This experience significantly disrupted our travel plans and diminished our overall impression of the property. I would advise against booking this property due to the poor communication and lack of timely support.

An inn by the sea

An inn located by the sea, you can check in by yourself with a password sent to you. The guest rooms are on the second floor, and the restaurant is on the ground floor, so it is very convenient for food and accommodation.

The room is spacious. However we never received emails about the checkin instructions. The phone number provided did not work. Luckily 10 -15 minutes after emailing about our arrival, the property manager showed up. We have seen other tenants trying to figure out how to check in. The apartment has strong odor.
