This well-priced guesthouse has a beautiful riverside location and charming, colourful wooden bungalows equipped with Western toilets. The cheapest rooms are very basic. The main hang-out area is decked out with photos of travellers engaging in jungle stuff. Led by Ahmad, the staff are friendly, and it's a good place to arrange guides. Its website is an excellent resource for local info.
