Easy access to the highway. Breakfast
The lights from the parking lot are very bright. The screen on the window was partially broken and the wind was knocking it around all night

No frills motel that is always very clean and is affordably priced. Stay here every time I go to or through Tucumcari
The blankets on the bed could have been thicker and the mattress softer but for the price you can’t go wrong

Pretty good price for the money. I know what I'm getting into, as I stay there pretty frequently when crisscrossing the southwest.
Wish there were more gluten free breakfast items, as I have celiacs disease. Also, they have microwaves, but only have Styrofoam cups, bowls, and plates, whereas paper plates, cuts etc, would be microwave compatible. Lastly the ice machine has been broken for years. Its still there, with the sign sayng its broken. I stay several times every year. There is no hope in my mind that they ever intend to actually fix it. Very frustrating to even see it there, pretending like it just broke down last week. Yeah, no, been broke forever.

There wasn’t anything about the hotel that didn’t meet my needs -the room was clean and we were close to restaurants and no fear of walking our dog on the property -would stay there again-

Arriving late, it was nice to see a person behind the desk to check us in. It's an old hotel, but don't let that stop you! The rooms are updated, the staff friendly and helpful with plenty of parking. The breakfast in July was waffles, dry cereal, fruit and hard boiled eggs. That's it. We enjoyed our stay, the rooms and beds are comfortable. CHECK the refrigerator right away...ours was unplugged!!
No elevators. The refrigerator was unplugged and there was no coffee pot in our room.

Location, near the highway 40. But far away from the traffic noise.
Breakfast was ok. Heard from others that they use to serve eggs and sausage, but it wasn’t the case. Overall the breakfast was ok however it was. Had to kill a huge spider in the bathroom around 3am..

Handrail on stairs was wobbly

Staff changed room to 1st floor but cost is prohibitive for tiny room.
Tiny room, hot refrig- must turn on power strip to start cooling. I had insulin needing cool temp. 1 tiny bar of soap for 2 adult room!!!!! Staff says, always avail at front desk!!!!! Should I have gone out in my towel? 600am breakfast, well at 620am= no hot water for oatmeal, out of coffee, bagels icy cold/partially frozen. We needed to leave early so couldn't wait for corrections. So had to pay for meal elsewhere.

The location is in a very comfortable area, right off the hwy with many choices of places around to eat. They do offer breakfast and coffee, but I slept in and had to get on the road immediately after leaving. I will definitely stay again.
A elevator would be nice.

The staff was very nice
The AC was not on in our room so when we entered the room it was about 80° and it took over an hour to get to a comfortable temperature. And when you’re arriving late at night that is not something you want

Easy to get to
No elevator
Front desk person was quite disgusting with purple hair and hardware hanging out of it's face. Couldn't understand it when it talked, I assume hardware inside it's mouth. Very disgusting and annoying.
Everyone has a right to dress and present themselves however they want, but I would think that a business would want to have a professional looking person representing the company. They chose to have "that", I can choose to stay somewhere else in the future.

Hot tub was really nice an rooms comfortable an clean. Gentleman that checked us in was really friendly and helped us within his limitations. He did all he could an stayed true to his job. Very respectful and went out of his way to find out the hours of the dinosaur 🦕 park for us. Breakfast was amazing 👏 😋 😍
Pool was freezing..the whole reason we choose to stay was for the pool very disappointed was expecting heated was told was heated when we called an asked.. . Hot tub nice.. wanted to charge extra to put us on 1st floor.. we said no ..then found out they have no elevator for 2nd floor my dad is late 70s. We had a really hard time getting everything up stairs on our own.
