Reviews of Top Ranking Hill View Guesthouse

No breakfast

No coffee or bottled water. I was charged the full cost although I stayed 1 night.

We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful place in Speyside. The views were absolutely stunning, and the gardens, along with the surrounding wildlife, made it even more special. The host was incredibly sweet and friendly, making us feel right at home. The place was spotless, and the kitchen was well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. We would highly recommend this place and would love to return in the future!

Property is on quite a long stretch of steps up a steep driveway.But that gives you a nice view over to the other islands. Room was clean and comfortable with TV. AC microwave and kettle.Although to use these items, you have to constantly unplug something to use the two outlets that are readily available in the room. Mrs. ann , the owner was very nice and accommodating when I needed to borrow her phone charger since mine got smashed in the metal door.

Things that are particularly beyond her control. Such as having the landscaping done the full day I stayed in my room, having chickens squawking starting at 4 o'clock in the morning and other loud birds making me wake up before. I wanted to, neighbors. playing loud music. The property itself was just fine. The only thing I and other people seem to not like about it was if you wanted to go up-and-down to the town. You have to go up-and-down all these steps and go down around a bend at the intersection. Although the other girl staying there said she found a bunch of steps down near the bottom that would have cut out the bend and came more directly up to the street. We were on that. I didn't know about. I only went down there once and then it started pouring rain and I came back up later. And never went down again.There's also limited if any parking and if you have a car you'd have to park on the street with every.One else. My biggest complaint has to be that on the booking website months ago that there was airport shuttle, it says free twice on the website. And I booked it thinking I could get a ride from the Scarborough ferry up 2 the place and then back over to THE Airport where I was staying after and this is not true when I pointed that out to her and she acted like she didn't know anything. About it well when you set up the website on booking.com. You're supposed to look it over and change anything on there . That's wrong and since I booked it months and months ago. It's been on there like that misleading people into thinking they have. At least a one way free ride to the property. And it's not true. It actually cost me the same price. $110 US to go from the ferry up to the property and then take another taxi down to THE Airport area where I was staying, which was the exact amount I paid for 2 nights to stay at the property. So I was running out of cash because no taxi drivers on Trinidad or Tobago will take a credit...

The view was spectacular. The room was spacious. Accommodation was great.

I just did not like the steepness of the hill. I was afraid of the hill.but I enjoyed my stay

The apartment had good views over Speyside and Little Tobago Island. The hosts were very helpful and communicated well.

Great location and views over Speyside with fresh air good facilities.

Walking up to the room via a very steep driveway was a challenge ... not for the unfit!

For the guest without car, the host could prepare a list of private transport (taxi) available in Speyside.

Spacious room. The owner was very kind. Beautiful view on the sea and the forest. Sitting on the small terrace it was nice to watch the birds in the forest surrounding the village.

The lamps in the room were not too good. Eg not a lamp by the bedside. That made the room not so cosy at night. Also it is a very steep climb from the road to the house. The owner kindly helped me by driving my suitcase uphill. But anyone who's not good on foot should take this into consideration

The host was very hospitable and accommodating with our needs regardless of the time of the day. The venue was very nice, it looked way better than the pictures currently posted online which is a plus. The scenery and the tranquility was exceptional. The rooms were clean and beds were quite comfortable.

A mini mart would be a plus onsite.

Very clean. White cotton sheets and white towels. Decent beds. Great shower - roomy and easy to adjust. Air conditioning very effective. Windows had insect screens. Distant sea view from little balcony. Can see humming birds in an adjacent property from lower down, not from the balcony. We had help to move luggage. Toilet paper provided was better than the cheap thin paper provided in other Tobago properties. Wifi worked quite adequately for us. Washing machine available and clothes line with pegs. Good sixed fridge freezer in kitchen.

The property is reached via a very steep access, with a corrugated type surface to improve grip. There are a lot of variable height steps at one side but as you have to cross the very steep slope to get to the entrance you need footwear with a great grip. No working tv. Dog kennel a few metres away and the dog barked quite a lot. Even if you are not a dog lover it may distress you to see/hear how long it is locked in. We only wanted to boil an egg and open the odd bottle but the kitchen did not appear to be very well equipped. You will not want to try that slope with a normal car so you park on the road wherever you can, usually no shade.

Host and hostess.

There were comfortable beds. There was a small fridge, but only a hot plate for cooking. Also no table or chairs for eating our meals. Kitchen equipment was lacking many toolls
