sagging ceilingineffective solution
The bathroom showed considerable wear. The ceiling was visibly sagging and pieces were flaking off. i found mold present, indicating a lack of proper maintenance. the staff's suggestion to open the window was unhelpful, particularly as the window subsequently became difficult to close. this resulted in an insecure room. I expected better upkeep and a more effective resolution.
