Fodor's "Spacious but simple rooms and proximity to Port of Spain ensure the popularity of this guesthouse, which consists of two separate buildings." Full review
Rough Guide "Splendid views from the rooms in the building on the hill, about 200m up the road from the main part of the guesthouse, and the genial, genuinely helpful staff are a real plus."
Lonely Planet "In Maraval, 3km north of Queen’s Park Savannah, Monique’s is a bit out of the way – you'll need a car or a taxi to get into town – but offers lots of peace and quiet." Full review
