Friendly staff and an affordable room made this a good place to stay for a night in Amarillo. We like that they're dog-friendly too. A convenient location off the highway and a continental breakfast that's included - although the coffee was really weak the morning I was there. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again the next time we're passing through... More

This use to be The Magnusum. It has changed names. Going west on I-40. Exit I-40 & Ross. Go back under I-40. Take frontage road. Right next to Harbor Freight. We have stayed here numerous times. It is always clean & the people are mighty friendly. In the winter, we suggest you do not get a north facing room. It... More

We needed a place in Amarillo and I was torn about reserving b/c of the mixed reviews. But I called ahead and the person at the hotel was very friendly and helpful. We needed two rooms b/c my parents-in-law were also along. As was the 60 pound dog. The breakfast selection was big enough to please all of them (included... More

This is middle of the road for a Red Roof, comfortable bed decently quiet and good help. Also on the upside, "free breakfast" is included with biscuits, gravy, waffles, assorted cereals and packaged doughnuts. On the downside, the rooms are a little run down, my sink had no stopper and the free WI-FI did not work very well-weak signal.
