Clean, comfortable room. Cool Rte 66 decor. Although I stayed in a pet friendly room, you would never know that dogs had been in the room before. Good nostalgic stop on the Mother Road!

Cleanest room ever! Lovely retro decor and friendly staff. Adorable details and sweet little lobby/gift shop. Pet rooms are separate from non-pet rooms so no allergies! Excellent place to stay.

Great restoration of a classic Sixties motor lodge, and our quartet of Boomers was old enough to vouch for its authenticity! Rooms are small by today's standards, but the beds were comfortable, and the details - classic radio, magazines, snacks - made it even more fun.

We stayed in a pet friendly room and it was super cute. There was a small dog play area which was very welcome after a long day in the car. There were too many shag rugs for a pet friendly room and previous guests had soiled them. I kept my pup in his crate most of the time as I’m sure he would’ve peed on top of them!

This is an old motel, and they lean into that with the vibe and decor. Very quaint! Don't expect a 4-star full-service hotel and it's fine. Staff are friendly. Coffee/tea available in the morning. Pet friendly with a dog run area full fenced in. Tucumcari has seen better days. Dining is VERY limited, especially on Sunday when we were there. There is a full grocery store in town.
