Traveling on a budget I'd pick up a copy of The Travelers Guide to
Mexican Camping. It's mostly written for RVers, but most of the places they
list offer camping and/or inexpensive accomodations. www.rollinghomes.com
for more information and updates. For example, I found the lovely and very
inexpensive Sacbe Camping near Uxmal through them. Last November we stayed
in their nicest cabin, which is very nice, for $16.
I prefer guidebooks that only cover one region instead of all of Mexico
because they give me a lot more detail. Even within one company the quality
of the information can vary widely depending on the author. I would not buy
another guidebook by Joe Cummings or his buddy Chiki Mallon because I've
wasted so much time on his mis-information. I picked up a book by Chiki
Mallon, quickly spotted so much mis-information that I laughed and put it
back down.
