I was checked in to a room with broken air conditioning. They told me it would take some time to work. I gave it three hours, and when it didn’t cool down at all, I asked for a new room before it had to go to dinner. The new room (the only other room they said they had) smelled like mold. A STRONG scent, not a faint hint if something. I had no choice, couldn’t sleep in the heat, so I got in the shower, went to dinner, came home and slept in the stink.
The next day, I got up and went out for the day, then when I came back in the evening and was hit with the stench, I asked for a new room again. It was Sunday night, so they had two more rooms. One was one floor directly above the first room, and again, the AC didn’t work (I think they knew this). The final one was right next to the smelly one (one floor down) and also smelled like mold, so I just checked out and moved to a new hotel at 10pm.
