1. The tub, shower and tiling looked pretty new, no mold.

2. I also noted that the area around the vanity sink was carpeted which seemed like a mold issue waiting to happen, since the sink tap was quite powerful and would spray water out on the floor if you weren't very careful.

3. And as it turned out; after two nights when the smell of detergent started to wear of, the smell of mold started creeping and we discovered that they had try to paint over moldstains in the ceiling.

5. I would probably return to this hotel if it was for a few nights only, despite the roaches and the possible mold, because I bet you can`t find better for this price.

7. Sure, the furnishings aren`t new, but we absolutely loved the crown moldings and (unworkable) fireplace in the rooms.
