Hotel Leito Inn — Hotel in La Banda de Shilcayo

A friend booked this hotel through booking.com as it was economic and had enough space for a group of us. It also has a swimming pool, which is a strong draw when staying in tropical Tarapoto. ||||The hotel building itself is unfinished, with a third floor still waiting to be completed. And the design reflects the limited land available to build on ie L-shaped bedrooms, no garden, small reception area. ||||The more expensive rooms have A/C, while the rest have a fan. I stayed in #203, a single room in the interior of the hotel, for 2 nights. It got extremely hot, but I was just about able to sleep with the fan on full, directed onto the bed. Occasionally the fan would stop working, though, which was not ideal. ||||Breakfast is included, but pretty basic: a tamal or fried egg & bananas with some small buns, fruit juice and coffee. There was nothing to accompany the bread. ||||The WiFi was free, but did not extend to all rooms, or the terrace. ||||The reception staff - especially a young girl who worked during the day - were rather slow and unhelpful. They were more interested in watching the TV that had been placed in reception for their benefit. ||||I also noticed that the cleaning staff didn't clear away a beer can left in a public seating area for more than 24 hours. ||||On checking out, it transpired that the booking.com price was more than the published rack rate, which was an annoyance. ||||Overall, for the price ($28 for a twin room; $15 for a single), it was a reasonable option, but not a place I would...

Located in a quiet unmade road well out of the city centre, Leito Inn is surprisingly nice considering the drab surroundings. Rooms are large, clean, air-conditioned, comfortable, and reasonably priced - I was at the rear and it was very quiet. Service is excellent and the breakfasts were superb - I was given local breakfast dishes on 2 mornings and they were wonderful.||Trips can be booked from reception and collection is right outside, and there is secure parking.||My only complaint is that the restaurant closes too early, and there are not that many eating options close by. I did find a wonderful Chifa (Chinese-style) restaurant the first night, but they were closed the...

Las habitaciones son limpias y relativamente cómodas, pero tuvimos al menos 3 problemas significativos durante la estadía:||||- Nos ofrecieron verbalmente servicio de recojo Y regreso al aeropuerto al momento de hacer la reserva, pero cuando hicimos checkout dijeron que no había servicio y de regreso, y la persona que nos lo ofreció no respondió el teléfono, en tanto la administración no se hizo responsable.||||- Cuando quise hacer el checkin en línea con mi aerolínea, tuve un problema con la funcionalidad de la web en mi smartphone, así que les pedí me presten su PC po runos minutos para hacerlo. Pero me lo negaron a pesar de mi insistencia, y tampoco ponen a disposición de sus huéspedes una PC para su uso. Debí buscar una cabina de internet un domingo por la mañana, cosa que no fue fácil. Es un mínimo de cortesía que no tienen para los huéspedes.||||- El desayuno no es bueno, en especial el café que no es ni pasado por máquina ni instantáneo, sino algún tipo de sobrante o diluido de mala calidad. ¿Tan difícil es por lo menos asegurarse una máquina para pasar café o poner café...
