    All good for me.

    Perfect place to relax and hang out on the outside of town (45 minute walk or 10 minute mototaxi) A shop with most things you will need is just a 5 minute walk away. There was always interesting and friendly people to meet for the 4 days I was there.

    The location is a bit out of the way. Walking to downtown Leticia is possible but can be difficult for those not accustomed to the heat!

    Quiet atmosphere, great value for price, welcoming staff. Located on the Brazilian side of Leticia which is interesting and unique.

    Hammock in the center of nature

    The road to get here is not crossed by motos or tuk tuks because it is very muddy and uneven. It was my own fault to bring such a large backpack, but it made the travel out there and back a bit difficult. This is not something the hotel could help, but I thought I would mention it. The place itself was rustic and lovely!

    I paid for a hammock and was upgraded to a bed with mosquito netting. It was a very comfortable setting, rustic but quiet and directly in nature.

    It's a bit far from town, but not that big of a deal because you can get a mototaxi into town for 2Reais. There wasn't anyone there a lot of the time, if I had a question I asked the other guests, might have been nice to see someone who worked there a bit more

    Beautiful area with a lot of trees and nature, relaxed environment, everything needed in the kitchen. Make sure you read the message from the hostel for directions because you won't find it on your own

    I stayed for 5 nights in the hammocks in the garden and it was amazing. The place is a little walk from the last road but totally worth it since you’re nearly living in the jungle. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Would definitely go back there!

    Maybe wifi, which didn't work what so ever, but not that big deal, connect with nature 😇

    Had nice experience to stay in completely different way. Beds had a net, all cooking facilities. 30 min.by walk to centre, wasn't issue for me. The area felt supper safe.

    Casa do Xingu for sure exceeded my expectations. The professor (Juan) and the girls (Juanda & Dora) are really great hosts. With Juan, you can speak multiple foreign languages, discuss many subjects and indeed have a great start on the Amazon journey. In the end, I stayed for a week more than I initially planned and If/when I come back to Leticia, I will for sure go there again.

    For what's to be expected, nothing. I'd mention a weak and sometimes absent wifi signal, but that almost seems fitting.

    Quiet location within a community just far enough away from the center, precisely what I was seeking. Fun conversations with the hosts and lodgers. Enjoyed our chess matches. Felt a more consciencious form of existence in contrast to the Leticia center.

    Far walk from Leticia (~30min), the place is not well marked so you have to count on locals to show you the way. I was brought to the back gate and had to wait 10min for someone to arrive and open the gate. While the place is basically a garden in the outskirts, don't count on 100% silence - there're still construction works in the neighbourhood. Overall the experience was good and I can recommend it for budget travelers, just stock up on fruit as those are not available in the vicinity.

    Chilled place on the outskirts of Leticia, hammocks among fruit trees etc. A kitchen with a fridge is there for you as well as a supermarket nearby. WiFi is as fast as it gets in Leticia. kind staff. I enjoyed my stay.

    All smells a little weird. Considering the price and that the place is very different and interesting it is good to visit and we recommend to spend a night or two here. But I can't really imagine spending here longer time. But other people definitely might :).

    Punk is not dead. There always was water to drink from the barrel.

    I know it's not something the hostel can control but there was almost no electricity the 2 nights we stayed. The minor consequence: we were unable to charge our phones to be in contact with tour operators. More worrying consequence: the light that should help guests find the hostel at night in the field was off so we couldn't find it. Having been unable to charge our phones we weren't able to call staff for help to find the hostel. Eventually a neighbour helped us call but staff made us feel it was very inconvenient for them to help us reach the hostel despite being at the closest possible landmark. Considering the neighbourhood's dangerous reputation and that the hostel is in the middle of a field, there either needs to be a generator for the light marking the hostel or solo travellers need to be very careful choosing this accommodation.

    Loved the compost toilet. Considering the jungle location, everything was kept as clean as possible, great work! Juan Carlos, the owner, was super attentive for our arrival, sent staff with rainboots for us to greet us and lead us to the hostel because it was late and raining.
