Unfortunately the Terms Good and Not Expensive do not go together in Mazatlan these days!
I understand that the going rate is around $50 USD per night for short term stays! There may be a couple for a little less ,but none that I am aware of from friends recent stop over there!
Copper Canyon in Los Mochis is still there and so are the Roosters! A better stop is the Pemes Truck Stop on the East side of the Highwat just over the Bridge on the South End of Loa Mochis. Not glamorous and can be busy with Transport Trucks but No Cockadoodle Do!
Los Pinos is still open in Tepic though not easy to get into for larger rigs.
San Jose Del Tajo remains buried in the Sprawl of Shopping Centres and Upscale Housing projects along the busy Highway leading to Villa Corona and Jacotepec. As a previous poster put it the condition is poor!
Chimulco at Villa Corona is Open and still welcoming , but You are heading for Lake Chapala ,so not of much interest to You!
The Outer Ring Road described by briansue2 is Our preferred route around Guadalahara and will likely work best for You. It does get very close to Villa Corona!
Safe travels and be sure to post the Road Conditions South of San Carlos?
