2. How come the hotel does not notice this leak - it must have been there for days - and does not recognize the health risk of the mold? I would sincerely hope that Holiday Inn does not endorse such a neglect of the health safety of the guests.

3. How does the rain leak to the second floor of the six floor building, and how does the mold grow so quickly in a day?I was feeling sick from the mold and requested changing to Park Plaza Hotel.

4. Checked in to room 217 and it was terrible: the ceiling was leaking and at a couple of places black stains of mold (each as large as a dining plate and, yes, all wet) were staring at me above the bed (photos uploaded).
