    If you're like me (a girl traveling alone cross country for the first time) and looking for a safe…read morestay in New Mexico, BOOK HERE! I'm SO happy with my night here - safe area, friendly staff, nice room. Deducted one star for jank ass shower. The head detaches from the wall and the angle soaked my whole floor. Yes walls are thin - I was on the phone at around 8 PM and my neighbor banged on my wall. Not so bothered by the thin walls as I was about my neighbor knocking on it. That's hotel life homie! Put in some earplugs and deal with it. We're all tired. But besides that it was great! SO awesome too if you're traveling with a pet, they don't even charge a pet fee. There's a little patch next to the hotel too for the dogs. Mine does not play well with others so we would walk around the empty lot next door, also mega convenient even if we were maybe not allowed in there. Also they don't discriminate against bully breeds. The staff was very nice to my little pit. Lots of food nearby / others hotels. Really well traveled. Next time I travel through NM, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! (Check out Del's Restaurant. Thank me later!)

    If you're looking for a place that's clean, comfortable, historic, and affordable, stop scrolling…read more-- this is it! The rooms are spotless, the beds cozy, and everything feels freshly maintained. It's also in a great central location, close to restaurants and local sights but still peaceful and relaxing. What truly sets this hotel apart is Crystal. She's a gem! Crystal is knowledgeable about the town's history, knows where to find the best local food, and takes the time to share fun stories and recommendations. You can tell she genuinely cares about making your stay perfect. This hotel combines small-town hospitality with first-class service, and thanks to Crystal, it feels more like visiting family than staying at a hotel. Five enthusiastic stars! PS - as an added benefit, they have Roku TVs and subscribe to most services (including HULU live TV) so you can watch Sunday Night Football as we did last night. A big plus!!!

    Stay started off well with initial contact from property about the stay and anticipated arrival…read moretime. Upon arrival it went downhill quickly. Going to office, noticed lots of people loitering around the parking lot with no apparent purpose. Many of the people with rooms were sitting outside with the provided folding chairs and their doors open (see below this should have been warning about temperature). It is directly next door to Del's restaurant so this *may* have contributed as they possibly seemed like local residents. Reserved a king room and was given a double. Noted a sign in office that said to turn off AC when you leave as "this saves energy which saves us money which keeps our prices low for you." Upon entering the room, even though they had asked my arrival time, the AC was off and the room was HOTTTTT. There were bad mosquitoes so leaving a door or window open without q screen was not an option. Opted to turn on the AC and try to get dinner and hopefully it would have cooled upon return. It did not and even in the morning the room was hotter than the air outside with the AC running all night. Did I feel safe? Not particularly. Lots of loitering people, no deadbolt, no chain, and had trouble getting single barrel lock to latch. Was it in good repair? Again, no. The stairs were falling apart if you get an upstairs room. The door latch wasn't easy to secure. The window seal was in need of repair. Just general upkeep needed on the property. Was it clean? No, the bathroom was dirty in shower floor and counter around sink and floor. While the sheets and comforter seemed clean and fresh, the box spring cover was stained. The surfaces of table and desk seemed clean. On the exterior, animal feces not cleaned off property. Were they hospitable? They tried, I think. Small touches were attempted like the welcome text and the flower on the toilet paper but this could not overcome the other issues. Was it quiet? Yes, once it got dark and traffic died down, it was quiet. Possibly because the AC unit was too loud to hear over though. Amenities? Mini refrigerator and microwave in room (I didn't use either). The room had a full walk-in closet with a suitcase valet. There is supposedly a provided Hulu account per sign in office, but this was logged out in the room provided so unable to access. There are other properties that seem better maintained along this stretch of road in Tucumcari for the same price point, seek elsewhere. (That said, there also appear to be WAY worse, use caution).
