Nice spot, near the busy area of town (but only when a ship is around). Staff was friendly and it was right on the beach. While the WiFi was certainly not fast, I was able to work remotely, granted with a pretty big delay. They do have an option to do laundry while there, which was a life saver, but you have to wait in line after operating hours, so I was up past midnight doing laundry (still very glad I got to). Highly recommend against coming on a Sunday.

Stayed here during Carnival week and had a great experience. The hotel was very clean, and the staff were extremely helpful and attentive communication was on point the entire time. The owner was very accommodating, and Sharon was especially attentive, always checking in to make sure I had everything I needed. It’s a small boutique hotel with about eight rooms, which I loved. Perfect if you plan to be out and about and don’t need to spend much time inside

This hotel is very centrally located in Basterre, a very walkable distance from the ferry terminal, shops, and downtown. There is a grocery store located downstairs (the property is a walk up stairs). I had a great stay and would recommend this property to friends.

Great Guesthouse

Our stay at the Colosseum Guesthouse was a great stay. It was clear there are some renovation work on the building however this did not affect our stay.
