I booked the Colosseum Guesthouse because of the location and the good reviews. My already high expectations were exceeded. There was always easy parking for my rental car, and the area's vibe was friendly and safe. The shops, bars, and restaurants of Port Zantes are in easy walking distance. The Colosseum gave me a quality hotel experience. The room and bathroom were super clean and well-equipped. The hotel's owner Homer is available around the clock and takes care of every detail. There is no question that I will return to the Colosseum for my next travel to St. Kitts.

Room was clean on arrival. 5 min walk to Port Zante was a plus. Beds comfortable, no issues with hot water. Staff and owner are very welcoming. The room has a fridge, but there is microwave and electric kettle in the hall. If you have heavy luggage do remember you need to lift to get up the stairs as the guest house is on the first floor. Only issue was the direlect property next door which was an eyesore.

NO ROOM SERVICE FOR A 3 NIGHT STAY. NO STAFF PRESENT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ANYTHING.On arrival they first told us we have no booking there until I saw the manager. I will never recommend this place for anyone. We heard confrontational arguments between the manager and guests who were turned away because of overbooking.

Clean, low cost hotel by the port.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. It is above a convenient store that the owner leases out. It is a five minute walk to all the shopping and restaurants where the cruise ships come in. There is a food court with a bar in the center of it and it had a DJ on Friday evening. The port is one block away if you want to get to another island. It was a bit hectic and dirty at the port but no hassles. Homer is the hotel manager and owner. Just ask him if you need anything. He was helpful and well connected. He gave me a low cost shuttle (prearranged)to the airport since it would have been hard to get a taxi that early in the morning. The price was low and well worth the stay. Currently they only had seven rooms but are adding on another twenty some rooms. I would stay there again.

Horrible- DO NOT STAY HERE, EVER! I booked via Expedia for 5 days/4 nights. Stayed here once before with no issue, but this time, on day 3, this small family run hotel owner said he had overbooked for my final night for a large party who was taking the entire hotel (small). In other words, I am making more money by a full rental than by you or the other room with American guests in it. Oddly enough, the Expedia site still showed 2 room available for that night. He said he booked me at a nearby hotel already. He never asked me. The hotel he booked me for was awful, terrible neighborhood with huge safety concerns and zero parking. I explained I’d book my own hotel and had to spend a portion of my vacation time researching for a new hotel for 1 night on a Friday night. Wasted my time. He gave me back cash for the last night, but no compensation for causing anxiety and disruptions to my plans or vacation. I called Expedia to report the situation. The other Americans were also contacting Expedia about the same issue. At no time during this stay did my room get cleaned, no new towels, no making of the bed other than by me, no trash emptied. Toilet paper ran out and was not refilled. I would NEVER recommend this site. Do not stay here. Zero stars, would never recommend. Just don’t do it.

This property is listed on Airbnb as well as Expedia. When I was looking both websites showed multiple rooms available. I booked through Expedia as it was instant vs. Airbnb which required 24 hours before it was confirmed and I was looking for a room for that night. When I arrived at the property there was no one at the front desk. I used the ring doorbell and received a response that "no one was available to answer the ring". Thankfully a guest was sitting outside nearby and called the owner who said he was on his way over. Once he arrived he informed me that they were fully booked. I asked why both Expedia and Airbnb showed multiple rooms available to book and he stated it took some time for the systems to register. He told me to cancel the reservation and I would get a full refund. I informed him that I could not cancel as it was too late and he would have to do it on his end. I was very disappointed with this property, I paid for a taxi there and then had to pay for another taxi to another property. It was dark out and thankfully I was with my husband but the area doesn't seem all that safe to be alone at night waiting or trying to figure out where you will go to next. In the end I had to contact Expedia and explain to them what happened and request a refund. They said they would contact the property which they were unable to and eventually they gave me a refund but not after spending almost an hour on the phone explaining what happened to two representatives

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.
