    There was some bathroom renovation going on. I was out of the place for most of the time but some guests might have felt not so comfortable. The steps towards the apartment might need some maintenance.

    The location is great, walking distance from almost anywhere around Tórshavn. The kitchen had the necessary tools to cook (but a microwave would have been very useful). For a few days I was the only guest at the house so I had all for myself :) everything was clean, towels, big rooms. The host Lív is very nice.

    Bed was broken, mattress was not comfortable. Faroe Islands is a cold country, could do with a better blanket or duvet.

    Location is good.

    Liv's guesthouse is fantastic for a few days stay. The location is perfect just 5 minutes to what i think is the main street with shops, atm, grocery and restaurants. The room is quite basic with a single bed and duvet but it is really warm ang comfy. I can imagine though that a much taller, bigger person than me (5'1") might not be as comfortable. The walls are thin you can hear everything from the next room and the kitchen. It was ok for me as i understand it's a sharing accomodation and we have to compromise but it could be difficult to sleep if people are making food late at night..i suggest bringing earplugs. The place is super clean. Quiet neighborhood. Free bus around town center.

    No internal pictures. Also, should have been upfront about the property having shared facilities.

    Location wonderful. Host very friendly and helpful.

    Very friendly host indeed. Facilities shared across three bedrooms but comfortable enough. Good price and a 3 minute walk to the centre of Torshavn. Will use again.

    You could improve the room so much so easily. Just take 20€ more per night and buy a kingsize bed, longer duvet, a small wardrobe and a proper table

    The location is perfect. Just 5 min to the harbour and 2 supermarkets. The room is very big but empty, there could be a lot of easy optimization

    A microwave would be a great addition.

    The location was handy for buses, shopping, sightseeing, and the harbour. The upstairs flat is all on one level with comfortable beds and a large bathroom and kitchen. The apartment is very warm.

    There is no bedside table with light.

    Loved the upstairs flat with a great kitchen area with fridge and kettle. The bed was comfortable, and the flat was lovely and warm. The location is close to the bus routes, which are free around town. The harbours are a short walk away.

    The appartment is in the city centre, 5 min walking from the ferry and bus station and all shops/restaurants, in a quite street surrounded by a nice kids garden. The room is spacious and comfortable, with the possibility to lock your door. The kitchen is very well equipped, with all cooking facilities and essential basic necessities (salt, sugar, oil, etc.). Very fonctionnal bathroom. The appartment is really clean. Liv is an excellent host: she replies to everything in real time and she takes care about your stay and your needs.

    Cash only payment. Liv has multiple accomodation offers on Booking and AirBnb, I think it's worth to buy terminal for cashless payments and move to 21st century :) On the other side, ATM is 2 minutes of walk from this accomodation so it's not a huge deal, but still it's not so convenient as card payment. I missed microwave oven in shared kitchen.

    Room was clean, bathroom was clean too. Liv is very friendly and she helped me with all my questions. Location is perfect - 3 minutes of walk from ferry station and Tinganes. Kitchen has everything you need except microwave oven.

    Didn't expect to have to pay in cash. One of few power points not working. Stairs to rooms need some repairs and room locks could be upgraded. The accommodation has clearly seen better days, rooms need something of a makeover.

    Location was good. Liv was helpful and accommodating especially providing a small gift for the traveller.

    Nice location but had to move places since this one was unsafe for me

    I opened one cabinet just to find a lot of cobweb, dust and also a dead bug. The rooms are so not soundproof, I heard every single thing that happened in the house which kept me awake or woke me up. On the third night a new guy came to the accommidation and he had the room next to mine... well he came in at 2am in the night and started trying to open up my door between 2-4am and I just felt very unsafe so I had to move accommodation, resaulting in a quite costly trip. I know the people that stay here are not the places faukt, however the locks are old, you can hear every single thing and if there is someone untrustworthy or agressive staying there the place just feels so so sooo unsafe..

    The location is very nice
