    Property tired and extra pillow would have been nice

    Close to harbour so ideal when coming off the Ferry. Host also organised a taxi to pick us up late at night which was great. Walkable to centre of own albeit up a steep hill.

    The area does not seem to be the safest. Everybody in the port was warning us about going by foot to the property at night. Especially the area around the port does not seem safest at night.

    Host was helpful and nice and the check-in process was easy. Accommodation is higher on a hill and the views are very nice, especially from the common room's balcony/veranda. Rooms were clean, so was the bathroom. Wi-fi was good. AC is only in the bedroom, but it worked well.

    The property was totally adequate- clean and spacious and as described. It totally met our needs.

    We were needing a temporary overnight stay to catch the ferry. We could see the ferry but being older with heavy suitcases we needed a cab to move from hotel to ferry. James organised the latter with great efficiency even late in the evening.

    Stayed a night having got in on a late ferry from Dominica. A short walk up the hill. Very late check-in wasn't a problem and the night time view with a cold beer was a great way to chill. Excellent breakfast with the view.

    Kitchenette appliances with European plugs but the apartment has UK power sockets! Reception does provide adaptors. Shower never got above lukewarm.

    The hotel does have great views of the port. It has an awkward location, with a bit of a steep walk to and from the town. The website description is fair on that.

    Don't expect miracles. This is a value for money.

    Ok let's face it, you have to be in the morning ferry and it is perfect spot to wake up at 5, don't rely on taxi and just walk down 10 minutes. Host is nice and friendly. There is a local supermarket nearby, 10-15min walk. You can get some beer or sandwiches in the hotel. Room is clean and have some basic cooking utensils (depend on the room i guess)

    James (property manager) was so incredibly helpful. Assisted with organising taxis, gave us lots of information about what to do and where to go. We stayed here for one night before we took a ferry to Martinique (only a 10 min walk to the port) and one night on the way back, and he even kept our big suitcases safe for us so we only took smaller bags with us. The property is a great location for the ferry. The rooms are basic but really clean and have fridge kettle etc. To note, there aren’t really restaurants around, we had KFC for dinner because we arrived about 5pm and most things in Castries shut.

    the area around the location is a bit rough, 1 km walk to town. Did not feel threatened but a definitely poor area. No hot water at night but we did have it in the morning. Bed a bit soft.

    location is great for ferry, common space was nice, room was small but worked. it was quieter than we expected given the dogs and roosters around.
