In response to a question on mold problems in Florida hotels, Mold inspector Daryl Watters says: My wife and I stay in hotels throughout Florida a few times a year. Usually we travel to the Florida Keys or Central Florida. Before we travel my wife goes online and picks out a new hotel, typically under 5 years old. She likes new hotels because she knows from experience that they are less likely to be moldy. When staying in such new hotels we never experience mold problems or mold odor. Some of our favorite new hotels are Country Inn and Suits, (3 comments)
