Rats and Mangey dogs
The place is dirty and falling apart. The food is similar to that served in an elementary cafeteria. I was placed in a Teepee where the linens were dirty and wet towels were on the footstool. I was told to put my things there, and they would send someone to clean it. That never happened, so I moved myself. I was given no information about meal times, where things were, how to book tours etc. Stray dogs roam the property, and they clearly are not fed or cared for, mangey, and surround you at meal times. A rat came into our teepee in the middle of the night and scared my daughters, so we left after one night. I was told not to check out until 3, despite them knowing the river would be impassable at that time and I would not be able to leave. I suspect this is so they could charge for both nights. I ended up paying 97.00 for a one night stay. My advice is avoid completely!
