Nice staff. Pretty little spot and big rooms.

Great people great place

We called ahead and arrived mid evening (9pm). We rang the bell and a man opened the door. Didn't say anything. We followed him through the dark reception area to the desk. He asked for our payment and wrote out a receipt. Virtually nothing else said. Seemed a bit creepy. A second man came and took us to our room. He was a bit friendlier. There was a bar nearby with live music. Upon request, the second man was able to move us to another room. The shower in the second room was almost non-functional. Only a trickle of flow, only hot because the cold faucet was completely stripped and the handle would only spin without turning the valve, much as we worked at it. Very old plumbing. The bathroom mirror had bits of the backing chipped off which seemed cheesy. The safe was locked, probably left that way by the previous guests. There was nobody available at 8:05 in the morning to unlock it for us so we carried our laptop and other valuables around with us that day. Only 2 hangers in the closet. Very spartan accommodation. At least it was clean, except the towels had quite a strong musty smell and needed bleaching to clean properly. This place is way too pricey for what you get. It is located in a run down area which felt unsafe to us as we arrived in the dark. Daytime felt better. There was no breakfast available. It is not a B&B. Should be classified as a hostel. We seldom write reviews but this one needs an honest one.

Minimalist.

The staff had very good customer service.

Pros - They gave me late checkout at no additional cost. Cons - They ran out of bottle water and I was very thirsty.

It was handy d exactly hat i required for just one night due to quarantine demands

It was quiet and clean, however there was an issue in water at the toilet only. And it is a bit far from the restaurants.

Good, no frills experience. If you want a clean basic room with a shower and a small tv and a fridge and u are not looking for a pool and a beachfront then this is for you. Quiet, close enough to beach, supermarket and restaurants close. Folks friendly though don't expect tour-guide advice.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The place was super clean and the rooms were really big and new. The breakfast was small but adequate for me and I really enjoyed the fresh baked pastries every morning. Central location in Saint Lawrence gap a plus but far enough away from loud clubs with a very nice beach less than a block away. Staff was super friendly and had a great time chatting with the other guests at breakfast. Would definately stay here again.

I first made contact with Scott, the owner of Harlem B&B on the 5th January 2020 to find out if I was able to check-in earlier than expected and he happily accommodated my request. From that moment, I was reassured that my time at Harlem B&B was the best decision made. Despite Scott limping, he still carried my luggage to my room. Both Scott and his lovely team made myself and my partner feel welcome and like family. Scott invited us for dinner on the house on the 9th January 2020. How many host would do that? It was my very first time eating irish stew and I loved it. Scott and his wife even accommodated my partner who is vegetarian and his meal portion was bigger than mine but that's okay 😊. Scott's wife even cooked from scratch cou-cou and marlin for my partner (he was spoilt) and I had the pleasure in tasting it for the first time. Unusual texture but loved it and I am a huge fan of cornmeal anyway. Overall, I enjoyed my stay at Harlem B&B and would highly recommend Scott's beautiful home which may I add is about a 2 minute walk to Dover Beach and within close proximity to the nightlife in St. Lawrence Gap.  Ideal location for everything within walking distance including local food. Residence/locals are ever so friendly. Harlem B&B is the perfect home away from home. Thank you to Scott, Scott's wife, Pat and the rest of Scott's lovely team including Sam the lovely dog.

surprisingly spacious. very good rate . very helpful staff

The property was clean, organized and clearly designed suited for a individual or a group (family setting). they had off street parking, secure cabinets, well lit street and there was someone always there to help. There staff were professional and courteous. The owners of this property were very accommodating and wonderful to connect with. They provided me with information and great suggestions of places to see and places to dine. A very comfortable place to stay.

Scott was very nice in contacting me and giving us directions on how to get to Harlem B&B from the airport as we arrived a bit late after reception closed. Upon check-in, the lady almost forgot to show us our room and there was no door number on the keys :) The building and our room were great, spacious and very clean. Location is also perfect, right at the gap so close to lots of restaurants and cafè shops. Breakfast is also provided, which is a plus and certainly satisfies our morning coffee cravings. Overall, a very nice experience and a perfect start of our stay in Barbados.

It was very quiet, location was perfect for all amenities, breakfast was very basic, had to complain before bed & towels were changed

Good location with easy access to resturants , bars and beach

I've just returned from a fantastic week in Barbados. Harlem B&B was absolutely perfect. I had a large and well equipped room, and it was absolutely spotlessly clean. The staff as well were just brilliant - one lady even walked me all the way to the main road to show me how to use the "Reggae Buses" to get around the island. Harlem is in an excellent location with all the bars and restaurants on The Gap and Dover Beach within a five to ten minute walk.

Excellent place to stay. In the heart is St. Lawrence Gap, access to beach, restaurants, taxis, buses. Staff and cleanliness were superb! Breakfast provided!

Originally planned to stay here overnight during my stay to Barbados but ended up extending my stay. The rooms are nice and big and so very spacious. They give you toothpaste!!! A lot of places don't typically give toothpaste. Con: Because the staff gets changed over, sometimes they don't know which rooms are occupied or not. So they typically knock on doors at night or in the morning. And the breakfast isnt, it just isnt! I would definitely recommend staying here irrespective of the 2 cons.

The property is very well maintained both inside and outside. The owner cares about giving value to guests for their money.

Price, location, helpful staff and clean. The manager knocked on my door at 4:00am to make sure I was up to make my flight and got me a cab when my arrange cab didn't show up.

Nice place, very reasonably priced. Room was clean and a good size. If you’re looking for somewhere cheap to stay and will go out and explore this is a great place to stay.

The friendly staff and proprietor. Excellent. Assist customers with great enthusiasm.

The property looked fairly builed. The room I stayed in is very spacious and the property sits a few yards from the center of St Lawrence Bay Gap, the location is excellent. The staff, esoecially Simone was very friendly, she gave wonderful advise on things to do, such as taking the public transportation whixh goes for a reasonable price of $3.50 BD. I personally don't like beaches on the Gap, they are for strong swimmers and those who are interested in surfing. Therefore, I took the public transportation to Carlise Bay beach each day, I also took it to the sites in BridgeTown and to the airport (the same $3.50, unlike the $16US plus $4 tip I paid upon my arrival). The rooms were nice, plain and simple including the curtains. If you are not a morning person and like to sleep in like myself you may want to travel with a blockout. Although I used the comforter as a makeshift blockout the sun woke me up before 6 every morning. The owner might want to invest in some blockout curtains as it will help to decrease the cost of energy. However, the price of the rooms are economical so if you are a budget traveller like myself this will fit in with your needs.

When we checked in there was a hand written note on the door with instructions on how to open,not very professional. We walked in there were at least 3-4 ladies there in street clothes we had no idea they worked there, she asked who I was I told her she then told me the room I chose only had one dbl bed and I should've chose two because there were two of us at this time I informed her that I was not given that option at the time of booking, she did give us another room. I liked where the hotel was situated away from the main road was nice

Close to the beach; good service. The breakfast could be improved but the manager was amenable.

The rooms were clean, staff was nice and courteous. Close to everything. Would definitely recommend to others
