Something not right?

Description

We spent 3 nights on the parking lot at the „Plaza de Armas“ (near to the police station). We asked the police if it’s ok to spend the night here and they said yes! No facilities - there are „baños publicos“ at the mercado central (150m away). Safe place, a lot of restaurants, tourist information and the „usual noise“.

Spent a night here. Quiet and good vibes. Some other overlanders and other vans parked overnight, no problems whatsoever.

Public bathroom next to the market nearby.

Felt very safe. Repsol around the corner.

Lugar tranquilo y bien situado para pasar la noche delante de la policia !

Endroit tranquille où nous nous sommes sentis en sécurité pour passer la nuit. Nous étions en face du poste de police!

Dormimos três noites na praça. Em uma das noites um bêbado bateu na porta perguntando por transporte para outra cidade as 3 am. De resto, não tivemos problema nenhum. Cidade muito segura e acolhedora.

Nice cosy square, close to restaurants, shops etc. Quiet during the night. Recommended

We spent 2 nights here, during the week (before visiting the canyon) and friday night ( before leaving the canyon ). No incidents and quiet. However, the first night the policeman asked us to leave before 8am and the second before 7am...! 😴

it was ok here but we had an incident with some drink guys who attempted to open our van doors while we slept at about 2:00 am. we brought the police and after some arguing the men left. it was probably an isolated incident but I might avoid this place on a weekend.
