Mold in walls, mold in bathroom, no working a/c units on first floor, bed bugs found, the owner Jerry Patel treats this property like it’s not his concern, also safety issues for employees working 11pm-7am with being sexually harassed and the GM Shawna Lewis is told to lie to guest about the property conditions as well and how things are ran. As an citizen of Bloomington Indiana I am reporting this comfort inn for the second time and will continue to do so until there is change.

I am filing a complaint regarding an ongoing maintenance issue in my apartment that has not been properly resolved. For an extended period, I reported noises and signs of pests coming from inside the wall and underneath my bathtub, along with damage to the exterior wall of the building. Despite multiple reports, the issue was not adequately addressed. Recently, hundreds of white larvae (maggots) began emerging from under my bathtub and onto my bathroom floor, creating an unsanitary living condition. I believe the pest issue and damaged exterior wall may be allowing animals or insects to enter the structure. I have been patient and have repeatedly notified management, but the problem has now escalated to a serious health and sanitation concern. I am requesting an inspection and enforcement action to ensure the issue is properly corrected.

What appears to be a sinkhole or chasm has opened on my driveway. Under the small hole that developed on the surface, there appears to be 2-3 feet deep and at least 5 feet wide beneath. I'm concerned about damage to others' property as my driveway is shared with 418 Hillside. I'd like to at least get this area restricted to prevent accidents.

This house has so much garbage and debris on their porch and property it seems dangerous. Google map this location and the picture shows the issue (and it's even worse now). Recently the garage roof has caved in and nothing has been done about it. There are sharp objects, a gas tank in the yard, and junk everywhere. Is there anything that can be done to clan up the situation? Thank you.

House not maintained from top to bottom. It is falling apart and extremely junked. Strange activity at all hours… it’s a shame cob ignores anything on west side. It’s disgusting how trashy the city is.

On going and unaddressed mold. Crack in the threshold wall resulting in water damage leading into the home. Rental property has not done anything to assist or repair the issue. Personal property is damaged and black mold is persisting under the sink in the kitchen and presumably under the carpet that remains soaked at all time.

Windows do not open/close. No heating or cooling in the structure. Dangerous electrical resulting in the occasional use of a small light. No plumbing in the structure. Resident carries buckets of water from nearby and can be seen washing his hair and body outside of his front porch. No functional bathroom inside the home. Occupant cannot flush waste properly. The entire place appears to be a fire hazard. Evidence of structural fire damage that may also impact the electrical and plumbing concerns. Overgrowth vegetation and weeds. Inoperable vehicles in front and behind the unsafe structure. The severe neglect of this property is diminishing the quality of life for the community and hindering its overall desirability.
