Unfortunately
we
left
Juan’s
accommodations
severely
disappointed.
To
start,
when
we
arrived,
it
was
in
the
pouring
rain
and
they
made
us
take
a
taxi
to
a
sketchy
“local”
port,
not
actually
the
main
port
in
Puno.
My
girlfriend
and
I
had
to
change
in
the
back
of
a
taxi
to
trudge
through
water
and
mud
to
get
to
the
boat
that
we
waited
30
min
for
in
the
dark.
When
we
arrived
to
the
island,
the
accommodations
were
decent
but
our
toilet
and
sink
leaked
and
everything
smelled
like
lake
water.
As
we
started
to
go
to
sleep,
one
of
the
hot
water
bottles
that
Juan
gave
us
to
keep
us
warm
through
the
night
exploded
all
over
my
girlfriend
and
could
have
seriously
injured
her.
Luckily
she
was
ok
and
they
found
us
a
new
room
and
bed.
The
rest
of
our
stay
was
fine
but
for
almost
$70
a
night,
NOT
including
transportation
to
and
from
the
island
it
is
very
expensive
for
what
you
get.
You
are
also
basically
forced
to
have
the
family
cook
you
meals
unless
you
pay
for
transportation
to
and
from
Puno
which
I
felt
they
overcharged
for.
It
was
$14
US
a
plate
for
dinner
which
amounted
to
frozen
french
fries,
boiled
vegetables
and
a
piece
of
pan
seared
chicken.
Not
awful
but
very
expensive
considering
the
options
in
Puno.
Overall
we
felt
a
bit
taken
advantage
of…this
could
have
been
the
least
expensive
leg
of
our
trip
if
we
stayed
in
the
town
but
ended
up
being
the
most
expensive
accommodations
we
paid
for
in
ALL
of
Peru.
The
family
is
wonderful,
I
want
to
reiterate
that
they
are
very
nice
and
caring
but
I’d
advise
people
who
want
an
“island”
experience
to
think
twice.
