Most hotels offer cheaper rooms with fan and more expensive rooms with air-condition-

PENSION
Hostal Sirari $
(
462-4472; Santa Cruz 538; s/d B$100/160, with air-con B$160/200;
) A step up in
quality without the step up in price. Rooms are whitewashed, sparkling new and in com-
parison to other Trinidad hostels worth more than what you pay. There is a small court-
yard with tame toucans that beg for your breakfast scraps.
