As a solo female traveler I felt very safe. I spoke to one of the home owners and he reassured me of the safety. Very nice people in this area. I stayed here for 2 nights and explored this beautiful pueblo. Well illuminated and cars do come and go throughout the night as it seems to be parking for the local homes.

Great little quiet parking lot. We stayed there for two nights with no problem. A small friendly neighborhood with a children's playground is just behind. People are very welcoming. 40-50 pesos taxi to go to the rio to see the animals or to the city center. Not to be missed, the city of Orizaba is magnificent!

Super petit stationnement tranquille. Nous y sommes restés deux nuits sans problème. Un petit quartier sympathique avec un terrain de jeu pour enfant est juste derrière. Les gens sont très accueillants. 40-50 pesos de taxi pour se rendre au rio voir les animaux ou au centre ville. À ne pas manquer, la ville de Orizaba est magnifique!

Good for day parking or stealth camping. We asked the parking person and she said unlikely security would let us stay after 11pm in our pop-up truck camper.

Great spot for a night. Conveniently located behind Walmart and in front of a park where the neighborhood pets and kids hang out. No vicious dogs here. Our pup was fine. Quiet on a Saturday night. Very safe. Recommended.

We stayed overnight on the right if facing Walmart (parkjnglot surrounded a bit of grass, when going towards Pickup and ground floor parking) Felt very safe, no one bothered us.

Other than some dogs barking, a peaceful, quiet place to park. The police patrolled by several times throughout the night but didn't stop to chat. Felt very safe.

Stayed here for a night. Tiny bit noisy but quieted down as it got late. No one seemed to mind and definitely felt safe. Really easy access to Walmart which is open till 11

Still a good, quiet, free place to overnight. Taxi from Walmart into the centre 35 pesos.

As described. We saw two municipal cops. Verified it was OK to camp in the parking lot. They said it was allowed 23hours and completely safe. Walking distance - 5 minutes to Walmart and the Mall.

This parking is in a safe area, it seems to be an area where middle class families live. We had the police showing up, very friendly, asking who we are and where from/to. They had been called by one of the families. The police confirmed that we are fine here and they promised to patrol at night. It was very quiet at night.

Unfortunately they built paid access gates at all entrances of the mall so can't access it anymore with big (high) rigs. We found this parking lot just behind the Walmart. It's safe and has kids playground.
