The La Hacienda Motel used the slogan "On top of the west mesa where
it is Cool, Comfortable and Quiet" in early advertising. . The motel
opened with 18 units and a sunken garden. They also promoted it as "A
Bit of Old Mexico". In 1955 it expanded to 21 units. It now has weekly/monthly
units with kitchenettes.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
Did
You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane
road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned
lanes are still there.
