Very cute small motel. We had two rooms that were decorated differently. Rooms are large and my 150lb Irish Wolfhound was welcome. Owner was delightful.

The room was poorly insulated which made it noisy. The back wall was freezing to the touch. The bed and bedding were low quality and the facility itself was run down. To e internet was very slow On the plus side, it was clean and the staff was efficient and kind.

Just what we were looking for. A clean place to say for the night while traveling. One thing they have that every motel/hotel should have is the extra wide wide parking spaces! Makes loading and unloading much easier and we not fear that someone is going to bang your door in the parking lot.

Super easy roadside Hotel. Far enough off hwy 40 so it’s very quiet. Hotel staff was super accommodating and friendly. Very cute, and Super clean. Nice bed and clean thick towels. Would definitely recommend. I work in the tv/film business and this is the exact kind of place that would be chosen for a movie set highway hotel.

A quaint 50’s era motel on Historic Route 66, a short drive from Interstate 40. A nice taste of yesteryear with a great steak restaurant a short walk away. Restaurant staff was exceptionally pleasant and promptly served. A great stay at an exceptionally low price.

Convenient and historic Route 66 hotel. It was OK but I wouldn't want to stay two nights. One was fine, but very low water pressure and only one place in the little town to eat. I'm glad I stayed there but I might go down the road next time.

Stayed because it was an older mom and pop with that Route 66 retro feel. Bed and room clean, dated. Some things could have used a good scrub or paint. Great steakhouse next door. Was a fun adventure!

I was a little concerned when I saw a small, independent hotel in a tiny little town, but it was nicer than a lot of much more expensive hotels. It's a short walk to an excellent steakhouse, too.

Don't judge a book by it's cover
We were "underwhelmed" when we got our first glimpse of the Cactus Inn. The exterior is not impressive, but our room was very clean and comfortable. It had a refrigerator AND a microwave which is rare in the budget hotels. We were even provided with complimentary bottled water and microwave popcorn! The steakhouse right next door was outstanding as well (good thing, since there were no other restaurants open at 8PM!)

Stopping for the night along Rt 66
Quaint Route 66 motor hotel we had room 11 which was large, with a sofa and tv as well as a small coffee prep area, and table with chairs, along with full bath and king bed. There is a small refrigerator and a microwave in the prep area. Tile floor and wall Mounted AC unit. All in working order. Next door is a steak house with many selections and it’s a short walk into town where there is a cafe and bar.

This icon motel along Route 66 has been nicely remodeled with rooms decorated in good taste with a vanity dresser/ mirror. Room 12, the Marilyn Monroe, has a King bed, retro style microwave, wide range of shows on TV, coffee maker, Mr. Heater and refrig. It is located far enough off I40 to give you peace at night yet easy off and on access back to travel

Unique
The hotel is unique, but comfortable. Never saw anyone on the office, but the person who cleans the rooms helped us check in. There are very limited eating options in town, but the hotel was a good place to stay for the night.
