Americas Best Value Inn review: extreme mold and mildew in our room (room 122)

On 8/18 we arrived around 11:30 pm and was provided room 122. The second I opened the door the smell was overwelming. Like an extremely wet basement. I left the door open for hours and window open over night with a/c on the whole time to try to combat the smell. The walls had black mold on them. When I approached the front desk I was told that the last people who stayed in the room had the same complaint. Huh, and you put someone else in the room without fixing the issue? That's just wrong, and the front desk acted like it was no big deal and did not offer anything to compensate. The carpet was nasty and there was a lot more mold and water damaged walls and wet stained carpet than what I took pic's of. I regret pulling in there that night because of the cheaper rate of $90. I can't put a value on the health risks to my family that this room creates. I am just glad we were not forced to stay there longer than that night. The room should have been condemned until the issues are resolved.
