Moldy intense smell from bathroom

Rm 112 has a serious mold problem in the bathroom. The smell was so overwhelming we had keep the door closed the entire time. My daughter and I should have asked for another room but we were exhausted from that day’s travel. Of course I used my rewards on this stay so I really feel bummed.

Staff was okay, but not exceptional. Bed was comfortable and although room was on roadside of property, noise wasn’t a problem. Breakfast selection was not as robust as other locations, but area was clean and well kept. Bathroom left a bit to be desired.
