Mold is a Real Problem at Camino Real

Where: 101 South El Paso Street [map], El Paso, TX, United States, 79901

Moldy hotel bathrooms are unacceptable. The case should bring up two scenarios, either to hire a better housecleaning staff or to put the money into restoration.

Unfortunately, the Camino Real in El Paso doesn't seem to take this approach. One past guest explained that she normally gives positive hotel reviews but, was forced to finally give a hotel hell review for this place. Normally not a picky guest, she switched rooms three times before giving up and realizing that the hotel was covered in bacteria:

Room#1 833
Horribble smell of mold...I would not even have gotten paid to sleep in there! MOLD for sure!

Room #2 1006
Smell not as bad, but still smelled, bathroom door would stick, I even got stuck in the bathroom until somone came in to push the door from the outside. Used soap in shower with hair on it and no hot water. 3 red stains on carpet and huge nicks in the walls. Possible MOLD

Room #3 1406
Still poor smell and many nicks all over walls and furniture. Crapet(yes crapet not carpet) in terrible condition, but best of the 3 rooms. No beds were comfortable, all old and outdated. Old sheets, pillows and mattresses, no luxury linens. Bathroom tiles cracked and filled with grout and dirt.

With 359 "Texas-sized rooms" it will take a lot of soap to refresh the Camino Real.
