Thanks all!
The La Balsa crossing (north of san ignacio) was indeed very chilled. had to go find the ecuadorian aduana guy to come unlock the gate to the bridge and then the peruvian side would have been five minutes were there anyone with a photocopier in the village... chased around after "professor panta" for half an hour and in the end the aduana guy was so chilled he let me go through without any copies... knew they didn't really need them anyway!
the roads, as you guys said were great this time of year and fantastic scenery and Izhcayluma hostel in Vilcabamba was great as you said.
In San Ignacio, the hostal with parking is called Hostal Faical btw.
