Description
Private and safe parking lot. The friendly staff of Livingston Hotel let us leave the car here for 12 nights, while we were in Galapagos, for only 5$ per night. We could also stay and sleep in our RV back from Galapagos, for the same price. It has running water, and you can ask for the wifi code (CHILENOS4, at the time). We could also use the toilets.
Located only 5 minutes walk far from a big (but expensive) mall, Mall del Sol.
We stayed for one night in a hotel room (huge, fresh, clean, and small kitchenette available) before we went to Galapagos, for 40$ for two people.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Report Check-Innot always available as he only has a few spots and customer may have already taken them. the park in the north of town is a good free guarded alternative
Report Check-InOur rig spent 12 nights here (we camped here 2 of those nights, and were in the galapagos the rest of the time). So safe. Still $3 whether you camp or not. WiFi password still current. Toilets always available in reception area. Perfect option for the city.
True there is a height restriction, but I guess the definition of 'big rig' can vary, because what we would consider to be a huge campervan (a French-plated Winnebago style rig) was filling half the car park here when we arrived.
Someone before us had obviously requested electricity, as a 110v power cord was strung out into the car park (very useful, as our 12v fan wasn't cutting through the heat).
I wouldn't hesitate to park here again. Great spot!
