The rooms are simple (in keeping with the theme of the motel) but decorated in spot-on period style. For example, our room had a couple of midcentury modern chairs and a great-looking coffee table. There were even some vintage magazines to leaf through (Saturday Evening Post, for example) and an in-house radio station playing through the clock radio in the room to enhance the midcentury vibe.

There's no breakfast service per se, just free coffee and tea , plus a few packaged pastries (donuts, twinkies, etc.). It would have been great to have some decaf coffee available, as well as some real milk or cream/half & half (there was only CoffeeMate, which could actually be construed as keeping with the vintage vibe of the place :).

Can’t speak for breakfast because I was off to work about an hour before it was served.buy the lady at the front desk was very nice and even gave me some history about the place.its not like those motels that have paper thin walls either the place was full and I never heard anyone talking or anything so it was quite peaceful.it was for sure a great experience and look forward to staying here again.

No refrigerator in the room.

David at the front desk went above and beyond when we realized we were not going to arrive before the lobby closed. The entire property has even the smallest detail correct. Having traveled a great deal during the 1960s with my family, staying in motor courts, my memory kicked into high gear.

Not a single thing. Perfect stay.

This is a motel built around 1950 but with attention to detail and great personality it feels fresh and comfy. The make a real effort to let you know that your dogs are welcome and not just tolerated. The fenced and lighted dog yard is a real bonus. Lots of pillows on the beds and the bedding appears to be pressed. Nice!!

It’s a bit off the beaten path and has the tiniest bathroom but that isn’t really a big deal.

Everything! We absolutely loved our stay here! Roadrunner Lodge Motel is located on the original Route 66, and offers a backwards glimpse of a simpler time. We didn’t want to leave this very happy place-owners CJ and David made sure of that! Both are very welcoming and totally committed to their guests.

There was nothing we didn’t like.

Fun historic property on old Route 66. Completely refurbished in 60’s style with a few modern upgrades. A great place to stay in Tucumcari. The Moon Pies in the room are a sweet touch. Across the street from Kix 66 restaurant, wonderful food!

The night stands are a bit small, but they work.

it was a lovely true to the era find on Route 66! very cool neon signs, vintage touches in the room, very comfortable bedding, quiet location, nice fire pit in the evening, socialised with other Route 66 travellers and David’s the inn keeper and his dog Elvis were very friendly. we really liked it! also had chats with a few of the local business owners, it is a very community minded place.

everything was nice.

From the first communication to arrival, to our stay, and to checking out at the front desk, the experience was exceptional. They have added just enough special touches to take you back to the 1960s to put a smile on your face and in your heart.

One of the top-notch renovated Route 66 Motels. 1960s theme, lovely, comfy, spacious room. Great location with restaurants within walking distance.

Internet was a little sketchy, but I was in the room furthest from the lobby. It worked okay once I found a sweet spot near the window.

A great little 60s style motel that’s cute, clean, very authentic mid-century furniture-even down to the magazines. This is somebody’s Baby and it’s evident in the selection of decor! I love that there were two easy chairs, as opposed to just a bed to sit on.

A bit of tidying up of the worn doors and woodwork
