This motel is by far one of the best places i’ve stayed at! Gal in the office was so sweet and helpful! She even checked on us after we got to our room to make sure we were all set! We are traveling with our pup and they left a very nice metal bowl, a cute towel and a complimentary treat for use while we are here! There is a fenced dog area which i love! Very cozy and the theme is spectacular! If i come through the area in the future we will ABSOLUTELY stay here again! Highly recommend to everyone looking for a nice quiet spot!

Charming motel, glad we got to stay there. If you want the old fashioned feeling of a Route 66 Motel, stay here. Music plays in your room with old commercials. They recommended eating dinner at Dell's (which was amazing) and breakfast at Kix on 66, a super cute diner with great food.

Wonderfully restored motel on rt 66, radio playing old commercials, moon pies in your room along with vintage magazines. Office is only open specific hours but you can make arrangements if your arriving after hours. Also, pet friendly. You can purchase pet supplies for your furry friends & the art work on your walls can be purchased. Fun place

This place is phenomenal. I feel like I had a genuine Route 66 experience. The staff are friendly, courteous and make you feel welcomed. The rooms have a 1960s feel to them with mid century modern style furniture and a vintage radio which plays vintage music and jingles from back then. The music ranges from big band to rock music. The jingles between songs are fun to listen to. The only modern appliances in the room are the AC and the television but why watch television when you can listen to the vintage radio programs!!! You don't just get a place to rest when you come to Roadrunner Lodge. You get an experience. The classic cars and the souvenir shop in the lobby are an awesome touch. If you get a chance to visit the Roadrunner Lodge, I highly recommend it. You will be glad you did.

On our way South
Was a fun experience overall. The folks next to us stayed up all night talking which was somewhat disturbing, apparently the walls are not insulated. It is as advertised “a 50’s motel along Route 66. Parking was plentiful and convenient as we were pulling a small trailer. Probably will not stay there on future trips.
