It is a little difficult to find a cheap place inthis town what is central!
There are 2 friendly places!
Hotel Capital, Carrera 5, No. 7-11, Popayan Cauca Tel.:8 388363
Basic but you can park your bike in the courtyard inside!

Hotel Pass Home, Calle 5 Cr.10-114, Popayan Cauca, Tel - Cel.: 316 448 9513
You have to park your bike one block away in the Parqueadero, 2.500,- a day (24 hours), ask there is an other one who is charging 5.000,- Pesos!
The rooms are with bathroom and Tv, very clean and friendly place!

Through Colombia...
Hi, I rode my Honda 125 from Cartagena across to Popayan and south to Ecuador on my way to Tierra del Fuego last year. You might find something interesting or helpful on my BLOG at www.simonganmdolfi.com
Message me if you have questions.
Have fun,
simon

Popayán hotel in centro by the plaza
HOTEL CASA DEL VIRREY - this is right on the plaza on Calle 4.
Address: Cl 4 5-78.
For 2 people with a queen bed and private bathroom in a huge room it cost us US$ 27.50 and they allowed us to park the bikes inside the courtyard.

Mentioned above - this hostel is a super good option with a Jewish family. They are very nice and keep it clean. They even clean the rooms every day which a lot of budget hostels would never dream of. Contrary to the above stated they DO have free parking for up to 10 bikes. A room including TV and hot water cost 16.000 pesos.
I highly recommend this place.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
