I have stayed at this &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;location&lt;/span&gt; several times over the past 5 years while it was a Comfort Inn Hotel and I have always been pleased with the quality of the rooms and service. When I made my reservation this time, I was surprised to learn that the Hotel was now an &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Americourt&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I arrived at the &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Americourt&lt;/span&gt; Hotel in &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Elizabethton&lt;/span&gt; to check in, I &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;immediately&lt;/span&gt; noticed a musty smell in the hall. This should have been a warning sign to leave and stay somewhere else. However, due to the many pleasant stays I enjoyed while the Hotel was a Comfort Inn, I proceeded to check in and head to the room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I opened the door to our room, I was almost overcome by the musty, moldy, smell. We turned on the AC unit and vented the room. This helped &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;a lot&lt;/span&gt; with the smell, however, it was still highly unpleasant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a warning to other travelers in the &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Elizabethton&lt;/span&gt; area, I have compiled a list of major problems during our stay at the &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Americourt&lt;/span&gt; Hotel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" &gt;    1.
