Great spot! Stayed here for a couple weeks with a tent. Went to work on delivery to the town and left the tent at the spot everyday, nothing happened. The only problem is the strong wind sometimes.

Stayed at this spot for a week in Prius, no issues. No “no overnight parking signs”, pit toilets, dumpster, hiking trail, very peaceful.

There is a camping in the other side of the road, there are showers and potable water.

Not super comfortable, but decent. Lights are too bright. Security car is driving all the time, but doesn’t seem to be checking cars. Slept here in Prius for 2 nights, had no issues. Other vans and cars parked here too. Also one big RV.

Great facilities (attached laundromat too) and beautiful spot to kill some time waiting for your laundry. There’s a restaurant too but didn’t try it. Seemed popular though. Espresso Bar/Market will exchange for loonies. Friendly staff!

Thank you to the two other check-ins for recommending this hostal. We only just arrived, but it's exactly what we needed after a brutal day of driving. The proprietor is wonderful, the room is large, and the entire place is clean and welcoming. The showers were wonderfully hot with strong water precious and dinner was delicious and a mountain of food. We paid 100bos each for a private room with en suite and 30bos each for dinner. And there was wifi which was unexpected and a great perk. Well worth it! Abraham, the proprietor, could not have been more friendly.

Garage Workshop on Industrial Estate. The owner , Yasin , speaks English. Excellent Mechanic. He responded instantly to our message for help. He sorted the problem out at a very fair price. Very recommended. Great guy to work with, knows his stuff. his work bay has a restriction of about 3 meters high, but he can accommodate bigger rigs and work them on the front of the workshop.
His whatsapp number is +90 543 978 10 10. His name is Yasin.

Beautiful place! As you all said, very welcoming and clean. Saïd and his family, especially his nephew Karim took very good care! Welcome tea, showing us all the area and facilities! They grow a lot of fresh stuff at the farm - basil, minte, dattels, koriand! Tasty!
Absolutely recommend and will come back for sure!

As stated, this road is tarred and very scenic, leading all the way to Livingstonia. After rains, there were some landslides though, so good to check current condition in the rainy season.
Note if you go to the Mushroom Farm: The last 3-4km between Livingstonia and Mushroom Farm are not tarred. After it rained, the road had deteriorated a lot and it was super slippery. I struggled with my motorcycle. Probably fine though if it is dry and/or you are a confident off-road rider.

We arrived here at midday and spent the afternoon watching birds and warthogs. Close to the road, so trucks can see you. Some cars even pass in front of you, searching for a better way, but all extremely friendly.
Around sunset it gets awful with all the mosquitoes, but until then we enjoyed the spot. 😂

MedinAssurance: employees are super nice, but only speak basic French. The owner of the agency is also owning next door’s luxury supermarket (with even deep frozen stuff!) and he speaks decent French and also some English.

Looked beautiful, but it’s really very, very far away from everything, so you have to rely on the owner for even basics like drinking water. Not even a small shop around to buy snacks. So when on a motorbike or bicycle and not with a car, come prepared or stay somewhere in town. We didn’t stay for that exact reason despite everything looked pretty.

Still there! For Diesel, there is no problem in Mauritania, so you have many possibilities on the way from Morocco or Senegal to here, but for fuel (motorbikes!) it’s another story. If you’re not going downtown, this might be the only option to refuel until Saint Louis/Nouadhibou.

Note that the train station is only open when a train arrives or leaves. The rest of the day it’s completely shut down. Right of it next to the toilets there is a guard living in the hut. He can give you information about trains or call a person who knows.

Came back third time now after 1,5 years and it’s even better now than it used to be. Phone signal now is very strong (there is an antenna now in the middle of the last roundabout), so if you have mobile data, you could even work in paradise. 😂
Dinner got really expensive now, but it’s very good and if you know Mauritania, then you know it’s worth it.
It’s 4 friendly dogs now that get along very well with guest‘s dogs.
Please don’t use the washing machine as water is a real issue and very scarce. We gave our laundry to the cleaning lady who takes laundry home and delivers next day. Depending on how much laundry you have, give her 200-300 MRU.

They don’t really want that we fill our water here anymore. We had to talk to the manager and insist.
