I googled mold Hilton and found a history of problem at the Hilton in

Hawaii talked about alot, not much about Orlando but did find this

about it being renovated and still guest finding mold:

" My husband and I just returned from a three night stay at the

Hilton. We have mixed feelings about the resort and will share the

good and bad.

Good: (message clipped)

Bad: The rooms were nothing special especially since the hotel claims

that the rooms were recently renovated. If they were, it must have

been a while ago because the bathrooms are already in need of an

update. We noticed quite a bit of mold on the shower curtain and on

the walls of the room. I understand it's Florida and the humidity

levels are almost always high, but I've stayed in older properties

that haven't had that problem. "

IMO, the ONLY way to acceptably " manage " mold that has been shown to

make anybody sick is to remove it.

Not just superficially cover it up or remove only the visible mold,

leaving mold inside of walls.

Hopefully, that is what this conference will emphasize.
