"Very cool, retro stop along old Route 66. If you want a vintage New Mexico experience, this is a great stop. This stretch of 66 in Tucumcari is full of old, retro places, gift shops and restaurants/cafes. We walked a block to Del's and had a great, authentic dinner. The room was clean, quiet and decorated well. The host was super friendly, communicative and helpful...even leaving a hand written note upon arrival with all kinds of good recommendations. She even had treats for our dog! Treat yourself to a stay while you travel and explore."
