Disappointing, would not stay there again.
Pros:

Location, and walking distances to the grocery store and restaurants.

Cons:

Firstly, lack of communication from hotel. They did not respond to any messages via booking.com. We had to reach out to the hotel directly. Secondly, hotel arrangement with taxi was not straight forward. The hotel advised the driver would be at the airport at arrivals with a sign with our name. We waited 40 minutes at arrival and no driver. Then a man came up to us, quickly flashed a sign with my name and said he was supposed to take us to the hotel. He then proceeded to arrogantly lecture us on how we were in the wrong spot and were supposed to go the very end of the taxi line to meet him. Note, this was our first time to the island and the hotel said the driver would be at arrivals with sign. Other hotels with signs were waiting for their guests at arrivals but not ours. Thirdly, we arrived late in the evening but had notified the hotel prior to ensure someone would be there to check us in. They confirmed there would someone. The security guard was the only one there and gave us the room key but we still needed to officially check in the following day when hotel staff was present. When we entered the room, the air conditioner was not on and it was extremely hot and stuffy. In addition, there were mosquitoes everywhere. I've visited several Caribbean islands and fully aware of mosquitoes but I have never come into a mosquito infested hotel room. I do have to point out the room was clean, but to say the least we didn't sleep well for the duration of our stay.

We will return to the Barbados and look at all options. I feel this property is a possible choice.
Pros:

Location was great, staff were friendly, food was good.
I was surprised that the kitchen did not have fresh milk a

Cons:

Bathroom light/fan was extremely loud. Sounded like a jet plane over head.

We arrived in the early afternoon and waited until around 430 to go into our room. We were over dressed and had hoped to get a swim suit on. We did so after unpacking in the lobby and changing in the lobby bathroom. Some folks may have not been so flexible.

Superb
Pros:

The hotel is a traditional family run guesthouse; literally over the road from Worthing sandy beach, with a palm fringed pool and separate garden with loungers: gorgeous!
St. Lawrence Gap is a 5 minute walk away and the hotel has it's own poolside restaurant serving meals all day.
Staff are very friendly and welcoming; nothing is too much trouble.

Cons:

There is some noise from a neighbouring bar on the weekend which is a shame.

It would have been find if the WIFI worked.
Pros:

Hotel room was nice and big. Room was quiet. Since hotel is one block from busy street, I didn't hear the traffic.

Cons:

The hotel was having a big problem with their internet connection. The WIFI was off and on during the four days I spent there (in Jan, 2025). It would work for an hour or so, and then not.

Good value for the area
Pros:

The hotel is a little bit dated but I have found this is what expect in Barbados I've been a number of hotels and they all seem to be but this hotel was certainly the best value for money for the location and the friendly staff the food is amazing the lamb chops is out of this world and the macaroni pie you have to try

Cons:

Rooms could be updated but as I said earlier this is what you expect in Barbados I have been five star hotels which are as not as good as fantastic value for the money for the area all hotels that I've been in seemed to be the same but when in Barbados who wants to stay in the hotel
