Clean room. Comfortable bed. Hot water for a shower. Squeaky bathroom floor was our only con. Very cool decor in the room. It was so fun to stay here. Loved that we could sit outside our door and enjoy the night air. Nice owner. And the best thing? Great toilet paper. (No cheap one ply). We will definitely stay here again when we come through Tucumcari.

The room was quite clean and very fun - great retro decor! We loved the radio playing old music especially, what fun! The Moon Pies they left for us were great, too.
Outdoors, there's a small yard where dogs can be off leash safely and a very nice fire pit.
The overall experience was quite pleasant!
The Roadrunner Lodge is a great little spot on old Route 66. Clean rooms, very friendly staff, and a cool mid-century vibe all make for a great stay. They also have dog-friendly rooms available and a nice little dog run area. We stay here on on our travels through New Mexico and always have a great stay. Pop in for a night next time you pass through Tucumcari!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Needs new shower The toilet is on top of you can not even move
The room was clean and tasteful done in the 50s theme. The only thing missing was in room coffee service but coffee was available at the office. Think this was done in keeping to the retro theme.

Incredible place. Extremely charming and the owner David is great. Awesome place if you’re traveling with pets. His welcome treats are a nice touch. The rooms are decorated in such a beautiful nostalgic style. Can’t wait to get back there soon. Del’s Diner is a really short walk and had a great steak! Highly recommend staying at The Roadrunner Lodge.
Very friendly to pets. Provided water bowl and towel to wipe paws, even a couple of treats.
Kitschy Route 66 mid century furnishings add to the unique experience.
