Accommodation

The University of West Indies, St Augustine campus is about 12 minutes from Piarco International Airport and 20 minutes from Port of Spain. So, the Conference Organizing Committee indicates a few suitable hotels or guest houses next to the University, so the transportation can be easier and faster.

See below some options of suitable hotels and guest houses:

This is a modern, clean, and comfortable complex of two bedroom, furnished, and self–contained apartments, only five minutes walk from campus. There is a pool.
