Nous y avons passé 3 nuits. Le parking est dans un quartier chic et surveillé donc on a totalement l’esprit tranquille pour visiter le marché de San Juan de dios ou la cathédrale et les rues alentours. Il y a tout à côté bars restaus laverie ... manuel et Raphael sont super sympathique. Ça reste un parking mais c’est un très très bon compromis pour se loger en plein centre à moindre coût !

Arrived here at 2:30pm , then at 5:45pm we were told we needed to move but no other spaces for our Long wheel base van. They had a large rig coming from
Yesterday. My point is why tell us to park. No concern for our safety.
So we had to leave and find another place for the night. Not so easy at 5:45pm, and especially close to getting dark. We can’t complain about the price and place, just be sure when you are parked you are good for the night. !

All as has been previously reported.
My minivan and I were first offered a covered parking spot. But my solar panels decided otherwise.
Raul and Manual are very friendly. Wish I had a better grasp of Spanish.
The WIFI signal is easily blocked by the large commercial rigs.
Great base for exploring Guadalajara❤️

Great locations, quiet nights with guard on duty (very friendly guy just as the owner is), wifi and toilets. Price is 130 pesos per day, which is amazing since the location is great and really safe neighborhood. You can enter/leave the property any time.

Go here!

Great spot to stay in the city, secure friendly people, short walking distance to the historical area and some trendy bars. No low hanging wires when we arrived in our 21ft Rv.

Report Check-In

Also known as Estacionamiento y Pension El Zorro. Great inner-city location for jumping off into the city. There's some low hanging wires on the way in and it's a tight area so I wouldn't attempt to park much more than a pop up camper or Sportmobile. Safe at night and they do have restrooms.

As described below...still 130 pesos for 24hrs and Wi-Fi super fast. Seems to be a great location - we just arrived.

Stayed here for 6 nights! I found this to be ideal as it is almost smack center to the zona rosa and the downtown. Its also close to colonia america which is a cool little hipster area of Guadalajara! There is a lot to see within walking distance. I felt safe here. Manuel is mainly here every day and is very helpful if you speak spanish. Raul comes every now and then and is a great guy to chat with as well. I would stay here again if traveling by camper. Bathrooms get cleaned in the morning but bring your own paper. Wifi is fast if you are closer to the entrance/office. I would not recommend this area for wild street camping! Safer in the lot

Pretty ideal spot. Felt safe, nice guards, clean enough toilets. Really good spot for walking or renting bikes, took Uber’s at night. Definitely fills up during the weekdays so if you need to get out, let the guard know.

We are 24' long and got in fine. An Uber to the Mexican wrestling was about $30p one way and came right away. Bathrooms have toilet seats but no paper and fairly clean. WiFi worked great! 24 hrs: 130p, 12hrs: 90p, 1hr:15p.

130p per night. Our F250 and camper fit in here fine. Quiet at night. Flush toilet but bathroom door doesn't really lock and the sink didn't seem to work? Anyhow, friendly guard Manuel and good location make it great for a night or 2.

This was the perfect place for us to stay in Guadalajara. 130 pesos per night. The owner was great. It's only about 1 1/2 walk to El Centro and all the sights. There is a Soriana grocery store about a 10 minute walk away. It felt very secure. Free WiFi. Bathrooms with no seats.

Great place to stay. They want Overlanders staying there so you feel very welcome. Raul is the day manager and he works really hard. He’s very helpful if you need any information about the city. You are 5 minutes to many wonderful restaurants, only 30 minutes walk to the Historic Centro and 15 to the Juarez train stop. The wifi is fast, toilets ok, but clean. Quiet overnight, secure day and night as there’s always someone there. Gates lock at 11. 130p for 24 hours. We stayed 3 nights. Would stay again. Loved Guadalajara.

~We are two girls travelling in a van~ had a nice stay with Raul and his family. They are an extremely friendly bunch and always offered to help us with anything- using their vacuum, grabbing us cervezas from the tienda, storing our surfboards, advice on the area etc. We stayed here four nights because we couldn't beat the location/wifi/banos for 90 pesos (12 hours overnight). Funny little place that we will definitely remember for all its quirks and interesting locals that parked there daily. Lots of cafes and bars close by in Chapultepec :) Would stay again if travelling through in a camper!

nice place to park and explore Guadalajara. surrounded by all the best restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and historical landmarks.

there is fast wifi at the entrance hut so park close to that and you can stream movies at night. bathrooms were clean and they have drains in the floor so if you have a solar shower bag you can shower inside. one sketchy electric plugin in the kitchen

We spend 2 weeks on this place. It's a nice place, close to the restaurants and the bars.Raul, the manager, is a very nice man and very helpful and so is Manuel the night guy. We left our solar panel outside and the windows open when we were in town for 2 days and they took good care of our car. Perfect spot to discover Guadalajara.

As described! A good place to stay and explore the city. Close to the hipster neighborhood with good restaurants and bars. Also laundries are close. The guys are very nice and we could borrow the vacuum cleaner to clean our van. We was there on a weekend and had very quiet nights. During the week life starts early and people are coming/leaving in the morning.
