AngusMactavish Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 MG, in another thread you said your wife was Mexican. Ask her the difference between the typical motel down here and a hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TelsZ4 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 You are better off crossing at Colombia than Laredo. How many hours do you want to drive...? You can easily make Laredo to Ajijic in one day.. I usually do it in 11 hours.. If you use a GPS. It will show you just about every hotel/motel between Laredo and Ajijic..

I assuming the answer would be that a motel you enter your room from the out side and a hotel you enter from the inside, trick question?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyfull Posted October 16, 2017 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 The half way point is Matahuala. Las Palmas is where the majority of us stay when driving from Nuevo Laredo to Lake Chapala. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks yes that answers some of my question, if some of you old timers remember there was a listing of all routes, restaurants and motels on this list it even gave which way to turn and things to look out for, wish someone would have kept it.

desafinada Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 The list that gave the routes and turns years ago would omit several of the newer bypasses. The new liberimento around San Luis Potosi and the new macrolibiermento between Chapala and the airport for example. In addition to Las Palmas in Matehuala, there is a new Hotel San Pedro Express at the San Pedro Parador. We also use the City Express Norte in Monterrey. Your choice of hotel will be impacted by whether or not you are traveling with pets. That is a big reason for Las Palmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catbird Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 If you go the San Luis Potosi route there have been major changes. Make sure to check the updated maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
