    Our room was not located in the main building but down the road a bit in their annex. Parking was a little difficult there. We were fine with it but wish we were informed ahead of time.

    Great guesthouse in Gjogv with a wonderful restaurant. We were on our honeymoon and they treated us to a glass of wine with dinner -- a very special touch! Lovely breakfast and the packed lunch was delicious. It's worth driving all the way to Gjogv just to stay here! We will definitely be back.

    The shower was positioned a bit bad, tricky not to get the whole bathroom wet.

    The restaurant had a limited menu, but the quality was very high, we got an extremely tasty dinner (tournedos + special combo dessert of chocolate mousse and ice cream). We stayed in the annex building in a nice and spacious room with great views of both the ocean and mountains. The town is small, has great hiking options and a 1 night stay was perfect.

    This guesthouse offers everything and more than you could expect in such a secluded village like Gjogv. The staff is very friendly and helpful and asked in advance if we need to book a table for dinner and for their very special and impressing cultural evening. The breakfast was good, our room in the separate building was spacious and clean. Thanks again for a couple of relaxing days with many new impressions.

    - The room wasn't too clean, the bathroom fan was not functioning and there were a few spots of mold in the corner of the bathroom. Had to keep the door and window open to air out. - Breakfast menu is very basic. Simple buns with butter and jam, hard-boiled eggs and yogurt with various cereals/granola

    - The location was the all-deciding factor for this booking. Just a short walk from the sea. - The hotel staff was very helpful and accommodating - The dinner experience at their in-house restaurant was simply amazing. Prices are not for the stingy but the taste is simply fantastic! Be sure to book your in advance, especially on weekends. You can also book tables even if not staying at the hotel as a guest.

    There was only one toilet roll. The dinner is pricy, especially the desert is not worth the money.

    The hotel is located in a nice village. It owns multiple buildings, so your room could be in an annex elsewhere. The breakfast is good and you can eat dinner as well. Rooms were modern and staff is nice.

    As we stayed in the annex, the room was lacking a bit of charm. It was comfortable, but decoration was too basic for the price per night.

    We stayed in the annex. The room was large, comfortable and with beautiful views. Attention at check in was very good. We had breakfast included, the selection was very good, and we enjoyed it. We also chose to have dinner at their restaurant. We opted for main course and dessert. The main courses were delicious and a good amount. The desserts were good, but overpriced. Knowing the size of it, I would have not chosen to order one.

    On arrival/check-in at 2pm we were told that there was a lack of cleaning staff and that our room might not be ready. We were given the keys anyway to go up to the room. The room was clean and made up, but the bathroom had not been cleaned well. We went over the bathroom with antibacterial wipes which we had with us. Unfortunately, the property is not 100% soundproofed. During the night we could hear noises from other guests staying up late e.g loud bangs/scraping chairs across the floor. Tip - pack your ear plugs.

    We stayed in the annex close to the main guest house. Our room had a great view facing towards the village and main guest house. The room was very nice and comfortable. Very large room, with its own door to the outside. The window was huge so kept the curtains drawn during the day for privacy. A stone’s throw away from the guest house. Excellent parking.

    The staff at the breakfast seemed to be a bit overwhelmed on some days. Most of the tables had used dishes on them. Also, no fruits except on Sunday morning at breakfast.

    The location is wonderful just at the village's edge with easy access. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The rooms and common areas are clean and nicely decorated.

    The restaurant has a small menu and consistently sold out of one of the desired food items, which was disappointing but it was all delicious. The desserts were overpriced for what they were.

    Fantastic location, great staff and lovely restaurant on premises.

    The hotel is very beautiful from the outside, but I found it a bit old on the inside - especially the room. My room was placed on the same level as and next to the entrance to the reception, which meant that when the curtains were up people could see in to my room. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was amazing!

    Poor communication from the staff on two accounts when I reached out through Booking.com messaging. I received a vague and unhelpful answer to my first question - eventually figuring it out on my own - and no response at all when I reached out a second time about a different topic. It’s a lengthy drive into Gjogv to not feel crystal clear about the answers to my questions. Also, very thin walls in the annex which meant that when my neighbor (above me?) got up at 6am, so did I ☹️ (were they moving furniture at 6am?).

    Stayed in the annex. Very cozy and comfortable. Ate dinner in the restaurant which was fabulous. Both servers were so kind and hospitable and the food (dinner) was delicious.

    Everything was great apart from the shower room door hitting the sink. Just shave a millimetre more off it and it will be fine!
