Traveler Reviews of La Casa del Suizo

Casa del Suizo

Rating: 0%

terribly expensive drinks, the food is good but always the same, native guides which their quality is poor in general, their English is awful, our native guide said he was paid pretty low, there is a horrible town right behind the lodge, that is really noisy and full of GARBAGE, you can see the sewer water running from the town right next to the hotel dock in the river. It is really AWFUL. The manager is a bitter lady that never smiles to any guest and the Lodge is really overpriced, plus we didn't get to see ANY wild life. We paid an anormous amount of money, researching some people told us that the wildlife from this area was gone at least 30 years ago. We were ripped off.
