St. James Guest House

Hard working owners. Exceptionally clean & comfortable rooms. Karol and Phil are exceptionally good business owners. They leave late in the evenings and come in first thing in the morning. They’re practically always there working hard and deserve the recognition I give them! (Throughout the night another man works there and he is great also) They were also calm and happy to be there 7 days a week from 7am till 10pm. Phil is quick to cook you up something and make conversation with you. As is the other guy who works in the bar/cafe area at the back. Karol took time to have conversations with our 92 year old Dominican grandad (who we now know can speak Dominican potois like never left the island!!) Massive thank you to karol for this!! As much as they are friendly and take time for laid back conversations they also are efficient and hard working. Karol ensured the rooms were cleaned to an excellent standard. The cleaners were great and didn’t leave a stone unturned. I’ve stayed in the Caribbean a few times and this is the first time I’ve not had any bugs or cockroaches in my room! (So happy with this) Karol has a business woman air about her which I fully respected. The area is a bit bothersome. If I went out alone as some of the guys try to talk to you & in a friendly country you do say good morning to people as you pass so some see this as an opportunity to try to chat you up. However they were all polite and did take no for an answer immediately. To stay in Roseau is convenient to travel out each day. They let us have late check out free of charge as grandad needed to stay in the shade and comfort of the room until 1pm. Thank you for this! We will stay here again as the owners and staff & the hotel itself are great! Thank you for your time and your professionalism.
