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.

Adorable on the inside and cute out. Nostalgia brings you joy as you listen to the old radio. Super cute decor. My room had an old Betty Crocker cookbook. Moon pies and RC Colas for the 2 in the room. Love this place

The hotel itself is a dated 50s style hotel. The rooms are very dated with TV trays for sink space in the bathroom. They are clean and cute with a radio from the 50s.

This RoadRunner motel was true to its 1950 intended vibe. Thus: no refrigerator or microwave. Safe, though I might look elsewhere next time. I did not see others more promising.

2nd stay just as good as the first!

This was our second stay at the Roadrunner Lodge. LOVE THIS PLACE! We brought our four legged baby with this time and I cannot recommend this motel highly enough for a pet friendly stay! The place is spotless and we love the retro design. Highly, highly recommend!
