    Don Jaime was so helpful and kind. he went out of his way to make his guests comfortable and would come and find us when there were monkeys or sloths in the trees. There are cheap and accessible tours to go on as well. I was the only person on the boar tour looking for caymans and capybara - it was amazing! I really recommend staying here.

    I think something like a pool table or darts board would be good as there’s not much to do when tours aren’t on.

    Great location, and Jaime is a fantastic host. The tours they run are well priced and I especially enjoyed the capybara and caiman search. The view of the river is breath taking. Great value for money.

    It was out of town, so needed a tuc tuc to get to places, but if you want an immersive experience of amazon rainforest, then this is a good place.

    Don Jamie was an excellent host, the hostel is on the bank of the river, so you get a great view only 30secs from cabin. You can order food, which was tasty and really good value for money. Jamie also help organise different trips.

    WiFi is sometimes not working, but you’re in the rainforest, so shouldn’t expect or want perfect connectivity either If you want to go to the city often, this is probably not the place for you. If you want to enjoy the nature around you, it is the right place to be

    The owner is really friendly and will help you book tours. The room and private bathroom were big, and there was a nice little porch to relax. We mostly ate at the property, and the prices were really fair for what we got. We also went piranha fishing with the owner and his friend and that was really fun!

    Had a wonderful couple of nights staying at Jaime hostel. Wonderful tropical sounds. Our room was large and airy with screens to keep out all the insects. Comfortable verandah also seating overlooking the river. Saw tamarin monkeys and lots of birds. Jaime is a wonderfully kind host showing us around his garden and to a nearby lookout tower pointing out flora and fauna. As we were catching an overnight bus to Cusco we were able to have a very late check out. WiFi was good. We thought the restaurant was open every day, this wasn't the case. However there was another restaurant and a little shop nearby.

    We loved our stay here - the business was family run and everyone was so friendly. They helped us with everything we needed! We’d especially recommend the night tour as the guide was very knowledgeable on all the wildlife and we saw a lot of really cool things. Thank you Don Jaime!

    The hosts were amazing. Jaime and Rolan were so accomodationing. They made the stay so easy and we're really nice people. Location in the middle of jungle was amazing. Monkeys and macaws in the trees right next door. Still only a 10min trip to centre of town for supplies

    The rooms could have been a bit cleaner - we understand that it is in the jungle and rustic but there was quite a bit of dust under the beds, on the floors and surfaces which could have been swept/wiped down.

    Very friendly, helpful and accommodating hosts. The food is delicious and the portions are huge so you will not go hungry! WiFi was good. Very good value for money.

    Beautiful hostel in the jungle next to the river. Great rooms with all the equipment. Equipped kitchen to cook while you're staying. Don Jaime is absolutely the best, kindest person and amazing host. Absolutely recommend!!

    We loved staying here! it’s a bit far from the center but Don Jaime can call taxi/tuc tuc, prepare breakfast and lunch or dinner, and plan your tours. We literally did nothing ourselves. Also, the river is visible from the property, it’s possible to sit in front and enjoy the view. And Don Jaime and his family are amazing people, it was a pleasure to stay there.

    The mattress is too soft and straining for someone with a back problem.

    The staff are very friendly and try to help with queries and anything needed. The property is next to the river with nice views. There is 2 hammocks next to the river with great views. There is run around chickens which give it a very natural vibe. There is also a nearby restaurant and a small shop selling water and drinks. It is a nice place for chilling out.
