I found the property to be good value for money. Check-in was seamless. The room was clean with convenient amenities - hot water, mini fridge, kettle, iron and ironing board. Also very close (walking distance) to many dining and shopping options as well as the beach. Would definitely stay again.

My experience at this B & B was no doubt unique, but I wish to share it because it far surpassed my expectations. At the end of our two-week vacation, my husband required hospitalization, which was a very stressful experience for both of us. I needed a place to stay that was quiet, comfortable and clean. When I saw Harlem B&B on the Expedia website, and noticed the favorable reviews, I decided to give it a try. It was exactly what I needed. My room was comfortable, clean, and decorated with fresh, sunny yellow, walls that lifted my spirits. The staff were amazing. Latoya and Charlene were caring and kind. They sympathized with my situation and were there when I returned from my daily hospital visits. It almost felt as though they were family by the time I left. Scott, the owner, bent over backward to be accommodating. He also expressed empathy for my situation. The B&B sits virtually across the street from the Southern Palms Beach resort, where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the beach and waves if you have a meal at their restaurant. My husband and I will stay there again the next time we visit that part of Barbados. It is also likely that my daughter and her boyfriend will do the same, when they visit Dover Beach. Thank you, Scott, Latoya, and Charlene for your incredible welcome and for all of your help and concern when I needed it.

I loved how close it was to restaurants and bars. It was within walking distance. I would have loved to have more dining options at the hotel, rather than having to leave to go elsewhere for food.

The property is clean and friendly with many smiling faces to help you if you have needs. Low key and relaxed attitude, not a typical commercial hustle check-in and checkout. Room are clean and functional with only a1/4 block walk to "main street" activities. Good Value. However, if you drive it is difficult to find on your first attempt, just be patient:)
Not in Kansas!
Clean and with AC!

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.
