Drive to Sedona from L.A.-Best place to stop overnight??
We are planning to drive to Sedona from Los Angeles (and, of course, to drive back). What is the best place to stop to break up our drive--we would like some hints on where to stop to eat, but, mostly, where to stop for the night. We are a family of four (parents and two college students). Thanks for any hints you can give us!

Mapquest says it's about 7 1/2 hours via I-40, I would just drive it in one push, but if you take that route Kingman is the logical place to stop for the night I guess.
It's also about 7 1/2 hours via I-10, thru Phoenix (per Mapquest). This is a better winter route if there is any chance of a storm since you'd be driving in rain instead of snow and ice. The western outskirts of Phoenix would be a good place to stop but again I'd probably just push on thru.

I agree with Bill_H, there really is no good place to stop. I do that cross desert RT drive a couple of times a year and always just keep going. If you really cannot go on there are places to stop if you must but no place interesting. Some I know stop at a rest stop for a nap which may be the best idea if you need a break so you don't have to stop overnight.
