Ken. It's different strokes. You agree that there are no 5 star accomodations. I submit that there are no 3 star accomodations. That said, there is a vibe in Mulege that beckons so many folks who are willing to be so isolated and relinquish a certain amount of the amenities they are used to. Folks who live there are proud of the fact that Mulege is so isolated and relatively primitive. There are an amazing number of Nomads who live there full or part time. It's about the local vibe. I wouldn't be chastising Kat because I can understand what Kat is saying. Not all Baja travelers are campers. Not all are surfers. Folks who embrace the wonder of Baja come from many strata of society. I know folks who drive Baja to simply stay at ritzy resorts in Cabo. But they love the Baja, and they enrich the economy by staying at hotels and eating at restaurants and shopping at stores. God bless the people of Mulege for having endured so much turmoil and surviving. But the truth is that even before the two most recent devastating hurricanes, Mulege was never the cup of tea for everyone.

Never said it was, BajahowOdd. Just question how the Kat can have personal knowledge of all the places he mentioned as he "passed through thru town (Mulege)"

Works for me. Good point. I imagine that given the magnitude of the flooding, closing your eyes and pointing to a map and saying there's mold here is a no-brainer.

I do apologize - that extra '1' IS for cellphones. Our ranch phone is a tabletop - but cellular, and I had an elderly moment.

Very well said.
We love Mulege and always will - no matter what! The people and business owners there are just great!

We enjoy staying at the Cuesta Real, parking our camper by the pool area and eating at the cantina, walking along the river into town or over to the Serinadad bar! Or, better yet, to Jungla Jims place for happy hour! Scotty's El Candil for a nice meal, margies, and more fine people to mingle with.

Love Mulege!
