Quite a unique place, but uniquely nice. Very clean. Nice breakfast choice. If you wanted a fresh cooked breakfast it was reasonably priced. Well worth it. We'll be back.

Has to be the worst place I've stayed in in years. Staff was NOT friendly,room was disgusting. Had extension cords coming from tiny fridge and microwave, extension cord by the bed, mold around the bath tub and semi trucks all night long running past the room most the night. The one couch in the room was the only other seat besides the bed and it was like sitting on a cement park bench. Avoid this place! I have photos but site isn't letting me add them...go figure

Old, renovated motel. The owners are doing a good job upgrading. The carpet in the hallways needs to be replaced. That was a bit of a trip hazard, But, otherwise, a clean unique property. Would have liked for all the activities in the atrium to have been allowed a little later, but that's not that big of a deal. Would stay again.

The hotel impressed us. The only problem was that the rug in the room and the bathroom in our room left a lot to be desired. They were both damp and tacky. Not tacky like ugly tacky like sticky. The lobby and play areas and pool looked very nice. We were told the temp of the pool was around 80 degrees. We didn’t go in it though. The restaurant/bar that is attached to hotel was very nice as well. I see they’re doing some renovations. I would suggest removing the rugs though.

The Cactus Cove Inn is now my go-to when staying in Amarillo for business and pleasure. The slide between floors took me right back to being a kid when my dad would find unique, locally owned inns and motels like the Cactus Cove. The family-oriented nature of the Cactus Cove is very refreshing, especially to an avid traveler such as myself. The staff is welcoming and made me feel at home, and the Westerner restaurant attached to the Inn has delicious food and amazing staff. Thank you for giving me a home away from home and taking the edge off of being away from my own family when traveling for work.

The rooms on the property look nothing as advertised. They’re old, dark, and lacking significantly on amenities. My room didn’t even have toilet paper on the roll. But an empty one. There was a wedding and children’s party going on in the common area in the middle of all the rooms. There was no warning or accommodation for this. I was placed directly in front of the children’s party, which was still going on at 830pm. I explained to the desk I had been traveling for days and would like a quieter room. I was then moved to a somehow, worse room that was directly in front of the weddings DJ booth. After walking to the new room and back to the front desk 3 times, the on-site manager? Came running over with a laugh about how I was moved to this room… and then another laugh about how the codes don’t work. At this point I requested some compensation and was told “of course” - which was never followed through on. I tried to follow up on this myself when I went to checkout the next morning, but there was no one at the desk… either of the two times I went. In all - I can’t believe the lack of customer service and amenities, given what they are charging a night for this place. Extremely disappointing.
