Modern Two Bedroom Apartment located in Historic Area of Bridgetown, Barbados

Clean and location for purpose of our trip

The care ans concern presented by ownership was impeccable. I greatly appreciated the hospitality and kindness offered to me from the moment of check in until departure. I would highly recommend this property to anyone planning time in Barbados.

We were favorably impressed with the outside appearance except for the steep staircase we weren’t expecting. We felt secure with the security codes used on the gate and the door to our apartment since the overall appearance of the neighborhood is mixed. The first impression of the apartment was very positive. The windows provided cross ventilation in the living room and kitchen. The living room and bedroom furniture were in good working order except for one of the reading lamps in the in the primary bedroom. Both AC units worked well and were very quiet. The beds were reasonably comfortable and the linens were very good quality. We loved the view out of the kitchen window since it provided a panoramic view of the neighborhood and a “peek a boo” view of the ocean! The refrigerator and stove were full sized and in good shape. The kitchen was “minimally” equipped for cooking in. The plumbing issues offered the biggest challenge to us. The water pressure in the kitchen sink was very low so we carried hot water from the shower spout for washing dishes thoroughly. The bathroom faucet leaks behind the sink so the water flows onto the counter and sometimes down onto the floor rather than down the drain. The TV service included many channels but the control box was "recalcitrant" at times! One of the owners provides taxi and tour guide services that we really enjoyed!

Fantastic Bajan neighbourhood. Really friendly neighbours and and awesome dog across the street. 8 min walk to the best beach in Barbados (Carlisle Bay); that says a lot as Barbados is full of great beaches. Convenience stores all around, and more importantly, rum bars everywhere! The bus to Holetown/Speightstown is one block away, as is the bus to Oistins. Bridgetown is a 20 min walk, or there’s a bus less than a block away. There were some mishaps as is common in Barbados, but Shawn responds immediately. The lower rating was due to the place needing some love regarding some items that need upgrading, as well as no beach towels or blankets. That said, I would definitely stay here again.
