Culture Crossroads Inn

well after reading all the fabulous reviews on here i thought we had found a little gem. This was a last minute booking after holidaying in st vincent and the grenadines and then barbados as our flight was put back by a day from POS we thought this would be the ideal central place to stay to explore Trinidad. i always go by positive reviews on Tripadviser as i also give my honest opinion on here. we arrived late at night and for information there is not a kettle in the room to make a cuppa when you arrive. The receptionist did not enlighten us to the fact that we could have made one upstairs either which would have been welcomed after a long flight and then taxi journey. The room was fine with everything we needed (apart from a kettle) Breakfast was not included in the price which i should have checked when booking. we asked at reception for a map to go out for a walk, no maps, and no one seemed to know of anywhere local to go apart from a shopping mall. i definitely would not call this a central location !! the following morning check out was at 12. as our pick up was not until 1.30 pm we asked if we could sit in the dining area for the 1 and half hours. not once in this time were we spoken to, offered a drink or acknowledged in any way. After reading other reviews i would not like to think that family were to treat me like this. if you are considering coming to trinidad whether it be 2 days or 2 weeks i would recommend paying a bit extra for somewhere more central with breakfast included, somewhere you can sit outside on a terrace and somewhere more friendly and helpful. Raddison and wyatt Trinidad were definitely closer to downtown. we however did have a nice view of a wall from our window. On a positive note they did arrange a taxi for us. Laketha was lovely and very informative. The taxi cost $50 usd

Trinidad always feel like home and Culture Crossroads Inn is always my Home Away From Home. The entire staff is like family. Upon arrival, it's feel like a family reunion. If you're looking for a grocery store, gym and mall, you'll only have to walk a block. CCI is safe and secure.

Friendly staff with clean well presented rooms.
