The property is in a neighborhood 10 mins drive to the airport and 5 mins drive to grocery and pharmacy. It is greatly convenient when you need to be near Kingston airport without breaking the bank. It is not fancy or modern but clean and convenient and the owners are lovely and accommodating.

The owners were so kind and helpful. This is THE hidden treasure of Kingston. Bob Marley beach is walking distance and the rooftop patio was breathtaking. The AC in the rooms was perfect to cool off after a hot day. This hotel also has a bar and the pool is cute and deep enough for the kids to jump in. The rooms are very traditional Jamaican style/decor and VERY clean. The wifi was strong and overall this was a fabulous likkle spot. Mi soon come back

This was a one night stay. We arrived around 9pm andvthe owners knew exactly when we pulled up. It was raining and they kindly drovevus across the road to get some food. We had a beer upstairs before heading to bed. The room is very basic but comfortable bed and quite sufficient. We didnt use the pool.

This place is for people who truly looking to have an alone time and find themselves a bit more. Scarlett offers amazing views to the sea and the mountains that surround it. The host and staff at Scarlett Guest House are wonderful individuals who truly know how to do their job.

Very friendly and considerate staff. Close to Bob Marley Beach (10 minutes walk. Bring water shoes, it’s a rock beach). Quiet at night. Nice rooftop views and a cool breeze in the shaded gazebo where the jacuzzi is. Sadly the jacuzzi wasn’t working, if it was I’d give 5 stars all around. Very cool older building with tons of character.

The room was a good size. There was no place to hang clothes. There was no mirror. No wifi so you couldn't watch TV. The steps were uneven. There was hot water thats a positive. And they have AC also a positive. The view from the roof top was amazing.

The place was clean it just felt a bit unfinished with an extra headboard leaning against the wall and no side table, or maybe a lamp by the bed , for the price I was expecting something a little more set up but it was still nice. Staff was kind , helpful and flexible when my flight changed
