We stayed at the Tropikist and found the owner and the booking clerk to be two of the rudest people we have had the misfortune to meet. During our stay and that of our friends who stayed the week after us, the towels were holey and unclean, the covers were never put on the beds and breakfast was so disorganised that it was a complete 2 hours of stress. When you check out of this hotel you have no bill given to you, so you cannot see what you are paying for and if you ask for one you get abuse. In fact if you ask for your telephone bill you wont get it at all, but will just have a demand for an amount and a threat to call the police. If you complain about anything they will swear at you. It wasn't just us either, while we were there other guests complained of the bad attitude shown by those behind reception. One guest was told he was stupid for bringing his beach towel back in the morning instead of the evening and was also told that people like him made the girl on reception sick. He had only stayed at this hotel about 7 times, but said this was the last.I have looked at other sites to see what others say of the Tropikist, to see if I just had an unusual experience and I see that my experience was quite normal by Tropikist standards. Shame that they can give Tobago a bad reputation as it is a beautiful island with wonderful people. Their reputation at the Troplikist is known among the locals,many spoke of other experiences people had had. Some had come to the hotel to visit freinds and had been shown rudeness and open hostility. I can only hope that others get to know of it too and dont make the same mistake we made and ruin their holiday. The hotel looks beautiful and is clean and well maintained but oh dear the directors are the rudest business people I have met in tourism and they allow their staff to be rude too. I run a holiday establishment, people come and stay at it from all over the world. I would be ashamed if anyone at my holiday accomodation had an experience like the ones I experienced or have read about.
