nothing like the pictures. The staff was kind when we checked in, however we immediately noticed that the hotel was much more worn than advertised. An area of the hotel that appeared to be under construction with glass removed from the doors and windows and covered with craft paper, some with holes seemingly punched into them. We checked into our room and there was immediately a bad smell. The items in the room were very worn, including puncture holes in the lampshade. The room was hot despite the AC on the lowest setting. The old thermostat in the room was partially broken off the wall. There was mold in the shower/tub and multiple areas of the room where the paint was chipping or the wall was literally peeling away from itself. Also, there were hairs in the bed and there was no internal safety lock on the door. We tried to stay but made the decision that we did not feel comfortable staying due to the quality of the room. We packed our things and went to the front desk. They were very nice and apologized and told us that was one of their more worn rooms that they don’t like booking people in and they would approve a full refund. When Expedia reached out they said they would only honor 50% refund because upon inspection the room was in good condition and the only issue was the odor. This was a bait & switch due to them admitting the quality of the room and then changing their statement after to avoid refunding. I took photos the quality does not match advertised photos.

The first room they gave me was filthy. We asked for another room amd they said they were booked. When we decided to leave and try to get a refjnd they suddenly had a diffwrent room availible. The second room was much cleaner. The staff was nicefor the most part. I am sure when thia property is done it will be really nice but they are still working on it and I feel I overpaid for the night we were there. I don't know that we will stay there again.

This is my second time staying at the Cactus Cove. I splurged on the upgraded room this time and really enjoyed it. It’s an older property with a little bit of charm, but lots of fun details that make it my go-to hotel in Amarillo. I love the fun features in the lobby and atrium (pool, meeting area, fountain, mini golf, games, shopping). The restaurant and bar were also great. The murals and artwork outside are also really unique. Can’t wait to stay again!

Everything is under renovation and none of it complete. Everything shows the age of the hotel. This place once enjoyed an extraordinary reputation; not so much today. Zero USB ports and zero extra electrical outlets. We were told by the front desk that the lack of outlets was due to a fire hazard identified by the local fire department. Seriously out of date.

The property has plenty of activities. Swimming, pickle ball, corn hole and a bar/restaurant on site. The rooms are perfect for an overnight stay at very reasonable prices. The property is a little outdated but the rooms are clean

Great lobby, pool, and such….. but rooms are bad

We loved the pool, playground, breakfast, and fish fountain! The staff was also friendly and the mural was cute. Gift shop was adorable!! Our rooms, however, were WORN DOWN. They definitely still need work. They were clean but the bedding was definitely worn down and stained a bit…. The walls had holes and nails sticking out just sitting there. The bathtub was also worn down. Let me be clear, though, there is effort. There are signs of improvement and the people who run the place are certainly trying to make it better. The rooms will need a LOT of work but we are satisfied with the staff and service. Things are getting better with this place but the rooms DEFINITELY still need a facelift. The parking lot is also a bit crowded and messy.

Fun, unique place to stay

This hotel was very unique and a lot of fun. My child said it gave being on a cruise vibes, but in a hotel. Part of the hotel was under construction while I was there, but it was isolated. My room and parts of the common areas seemed to be needing an updating also...but I think that is in the process of happening. Still awesome. The free breakfast provided was not super, but there was a good hot breakfast that you could pay for.
