This place is a gem--and a kick--on Route 66! The owners are delightful, the beds are good, the rooms are clean, the decor is 60's. The price is terrific. We stayed here on our way east on a cross country trip and arranged our return itinerary to be in Tucumcari at bed time on the way back. So pleasant we... More

What a great find! Pets were welcomed with just a small fee. Room is large and has two double beds. Cable tv is one modern amenity, and Kathy (one of the two owners) could not have been nicer. Beds were comfortable, and ambiance was great fun. Everything (carpet, bathroom, floor, counters, etc) were all spotless. Counter in the sink area... More

We've been traveling since April 5th, so we've stayed in lots of motels. This bed was the most comfortable of them all. Loved the retro look of the decor! More

For 1 night even more was nice, the coffee shop was great in the morning, the lady was helpful and makes a great capachino. Nice town. Not far off I-40 but in a nice quiet area. More

Historic Route 66 Motel is a terrific find! The rooms were large, clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and thought this was an EXCELLENT value. The coffee shop on site has a variety of breakfast offerings as well as coffee, tea, and cocoa for a reasonable price. We would definitely stay here again. More

This was our second stay at the Historic Route 66 Motel. Enjoyed our first stay there, so we returned when in the area again. Very clean, great bed (in fact our best night's sleep on our trip), and the owner is very delightful and accommodating. Our only complaint is the water pressure in the shower; however, the older facility can... More

If you like retro, excellent rates, comfortable beds and good location off I-40 then this is the place to choose. We plan of staying here on our return trip home in the spring. More
