Yeah it's been a series of negligent events by the hotel. I contacted the local environmental health officer, whose been down to the site, but no lawyers yet. Waiting to see if asbestos is confirmed first.

Update: it’s been a long 48 hours. The hotel manager rang me yesterday and said the door is recorded as being an aib. They’re taking it seriously.
