I recently stayed at the Candlewood Suites in Bloomington, IN Room 424 on September 20-22, 2024 and have recently become ill with a respiratory infection due to BLACK MOLD in the underlayment of the bathroom LVT flooring and carpeting. This is prevalent throughout the entire hotel. I am a General Contract/Builder of hotels and understand BLACK MOLD ISSUES. This hotel should not be operational in several rooms. I am available to discuss this dangerous situation. When you send an investigator to the hotel to investigate the health hazards, do not just limit yourself to room 424 this is throughout the hotel.
Many of the building have extreme water damage leading to large amounts of mold. Just this weekend a ceiling in an apartment collapsed. The trim on the outside of the building is rotting. Something needs to be done about this place. Because send an inspector who is not best friends with management. They been getting away with this for years.
Several parks around building 5 are rotten, soffit and trim are falling off. Window trim and window guard railing is rotten across most of the building.
Only halfway completed in construction almost two decades ago, the abandoned "Tibetan tea house" is owned last I heard by someone living in California who's son living in Indiana asked another guy a third person to watch over it and was letting a bunch of unhoused people stay there with syringes, foil wads, and there's been constant traffic in and out of the brush and the structure ever since. They camp out in that little area, then spread out to nearby neighborhoods and Crestmont porch pirating, etc. it's not a safe structure, and it is maintaining a common nuisance. It's not a complete structure, it has never been properly maintained, and needs to be demolished.
Water drains into the building because to slope facing away from building. Almost every building has broken or no gutters causing sidewalks, hallways, low level rooms to flood.
Lots of damaged and broken siding also rotten widow trim, building 16 along the parking lot
Several building have nails falling out of the siding along with rotten soffit and no gutters.
