They allowed us to spend several nights here, the prices have changed, we pay $0.50 per hour to spend the night from 6pm to 7am a total of $6.50, the place is very safe and it is 3 blocks from the central park and the historic center. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday there is a fair of typical foods and live music 2 blocks from the park. We spent very quiet in this area, we parked in parking lot 2 where the noise of the street and the music are not heard.

Le preguntamos a la chica de la caseta de cobro si podíamos pasar la noche en el parqueo, y ella amablemente nos mandó con la encargada del lugar, e incluso la chica estaba segura que nos ayudarían con algún descuento del parqueo, pero la encargada ese día no fue a trabajar y hablamos con la licenciada quien estaba a cargo y nos dijo que no estaba permitido que se pasara la noche aquí, incluso si se puede dejar el auto y pagar la tarifa del parqueo pero quedarnos nosotros adentro del auto era imposible, así que nos fuimos a pasar la noche al otro punto de ioverlander "madre selva"
Este parking lo utilizamos para dejar la combi e ir a recorrer la plaza central, también aprovechamos para ducharnos.

We stayed here last night because we were stuck in traffic and the sun was setting. Since we don’t drive after dark we decided on this park. We loved our stay here. Huge and busy park with lots of activities. Soccer, swimming, basketball, with a running and biking track. There’s also a dog park, showers and bathrooms. We were parked in front of the security guard building and paid $4.20 from 5:30pm to about 8am. Highly recommended.

Pedimos permiso para pasar la noche y no nos dejaron. "por suerte" tuvimos un problema mecánico y ya que era día feriado que nos imposibilitó solucionarlo, nos dejaron quedarnos una noche. Pagamos únicamente $1.50usd, ahora parece que la tarifa es única, abierto de 9am a 3am. Sanitarios $0.20 usd. Un buen lugar, tal vez preguntando a alguien más amable lo deje quedarse más tiempo.

We asked to stay a night here and they said no. "Fortunately" we had a mechanical issue and as it was a holiday we couldn't fix it so they let us to stay one night. We only paid $1.50usd, looks like now ticket cost same amount scheduled 9am to 3am. Bathrooms still $0.20 usd. Nice place, maybe asking to a better person will let you stay more time.
