    The location os this place is perfect, very chill and quiet in the center of Leticia. The hostel is very confortable and nice with good common areas. The service is amazing and they really care about your needs and wishes. The food is very nice, no worries if you are vegan or vegetarian, they make it for you too. I would like to totally highlight the tours they offer: they are amazing, really good price-quality relation, personalice with your personal interests, the guides are incredibly nice and good. Ecologic and no intrusive tours. we recommend it 100%!

    As its a old basic hostel..and the amount of People using the same bathroom it get quit dirty quickly despite the team really taking care of it..i know martha herself at 6.30 am in the morning cleaned the bathroom as i Just was going to the bathroom at that time..thats why she open a bigger and more modern hostel soon as she really want to take care of the hygiëne with every room to have an own bathroom. Also we had a issue we shared with her and martha really handle these discreet and proffesional. For us nothing we didnt like..love to all!!

    We loved our stay at martha's hostel..she run it with so much love and effort.. she truly wanna make sure you all happy and cared after.. the same as her mum laura. We adore her with her advice, Kind and helping heart..everyone of the staff is amazing. We stayed a week and did a 3 day tour through the jungle in colombia, peru (most of our time), and Brasil. We have been very good taking care off from food, transport and how you enjoy the tour the most..its such a unique feeling that the tour you book is your tour...they ask you everytime what you like to do , see and give you suggestions.. the food was amazing each time, the hammocks aswell.. we took everywhere our time not like other tours and we been spoiled with lots of information about plants, trees, flowers etc.. we had been invited to the traditional dance that was hold for the weekend in leticia..our guide brought us there and mum laura checked on us and invited us to dance in the circle..we felt so part of a beautifull family including her staff and husband. On our last full day we did the maloka tour for the day. Unfortantly i was very unwell but i didnt want to miss out on a trip to the traditional house of the leader with the mum laura.. she and the young boy took care a lot, made me a stick to walk as make me lemon tea..i cleared up from their treatment..thanks a lot!! She spoiled us with heaps of interesting information..we loved her endless knowledge. She and martha are truly gems!! If i was not sick and we had more time than we would have stayed overnight at their uncle, the maloko leader house. He and his friend were so welcoming..you could ask them so much question. So interesting! I recommend everybody to stay overnight if you can and to do tours with them! Youll love your time every minute and feel like family. Martha also love to treat you with Juice or fruit of her garden.

    Breakfast, which was included. 1 egg, some bits of fruit, a small bread and coffee. No butter or marmelade, although we asked, it was not provided.

    It was central, next to hostel is a panederia. We luckily booked aircon, but it was too cold. Unfortunately we could not switch off or change temperature; I guess the batteries of remote controle were empty. Owner is friendly and helpfull. Good mattresses on bed.

    if you stay in the room where you need to use the common bathroom, it sometimes got dirty quickly because a lot of people use it and sometimes you have to wait on other people in general it is not super clean so it depends how much that means to you when you stay at places the wifi was the worst and mostly non-existant but thats a thing in Leticia in general

    a very nice place to hangout in the front-yard to read, relax, eat or some and also a nice place to hangout on the terrace with the hammocks the rooms had fans, the beds were comfortable and sheets fresh the kitchen has the necessary things they have very nice volunteers and they offer tours the staff suggested good places to get food for great price (day offers etc), where to find things around Leticia and how to manage booking the boats for traveling to other villages etc

    The decoration looks more beautiful and the place more organized and clean in the pictures, can be something to improve a little bit.

    It is a really good location, just 3 blocks to see the beautiful birds in the Park, next to the bakery, and some blocks by walk to the malecon. Breakfast simple but good, a kind of special cassava bread, omelette, coffee, banana. The staff super friendly, everybody sitting in the same table.

    The decoration and cleaning of the hostel looks much better and well organized in the pictures of Booking, it can help to use spray, to organized the books, frames, some incience in the rooms, even in the shower.

    It is a friendly place, the staff it is really nice, you feel comfortable, safe and secure. The location it is excelent, there is a bakery next to the hostel, some restaurants, bars, and Santander park. Just few blocks from the Malecon to take the boats.
