The first and foremost memory we'll carry away from this place is the trek. Our guides, Saproo and Dion (and unfortunately I'm massacring their names) were fantastic, attentive, and informative. They also made a mean fruit salad and lunch in the middle of the jungle. We saw 11 orangutans (including the infamous Minah), more long-tailed macaques that I could count, a fig-tailed macaque, a long green snake climbing a tree, and a Great Argus Pheasant. We couldn't have asked for more.
We splurged on the Deluxe Double Room with a balcony for our three nights there, and we didn't want to leave that balcony after our jungle trek. At sunset, the long-tailed macaques took their evening constitutional on the far side of the river. The entire place had a mellow vibe that was reminiscent of the 70s, from men sporting pony-tails to strumming guitars. The entire staff, led by Obiwan (who hangs out in his card-playing corner), were laid-back yet attentive. We easily were able to arrange for transport to and from the Medan airport - really all of our needs were taken care of. I'd stay here again without a second thought.
