Had to refuse first room due to condition. Door lack was intermittently inoperable, lamp shade was missing, stained window shade and room had strange odor. 2nd room was nice except the pullout bed was broken.

Not as nice as it seems

I stayed in this hotel for one night while driving through the area. Our original room had an ac that wasn't working and had a puddle forming right next to it and the room didn't have a phone to reach the front desk. After getting switched to another room we found that the next room had a concerning dip in the bathroom floor giving the impression that there was damage in the floor beneath. There was also a splatter mark on the blinds of some kind of liquid. This room had a phone, but it didn't work. The bed was comfy and the breakfast was good, but this hotel seems to be lacking is general maintenance. When I spoke to the front desk at my departure the attendant offered no solutions, only acknowledgment.

The young man at the front desk was very good. He made check in easy and when the tornado siren sounded he personally knocked on our door and told us what we needed to do.
