I have done that, however, I wonder if you could help me in spreading the word all over the USA. If this happened in two different states, I would think it is likely that it is happening everywhere.

While we look at ways to handle a grim situation if we were to have a disease pandemic, lets look at just one way we can prevent it.

Hilton Garden Inn - Atlanta, GA
Hilton Suites - Brentwood, TN

I used the real glass coffee cup at both. To experiment, I placed a dot on the bottom of the cup with a regular ink pen. This easily wipes off with your finger. To my disgust and surprise at both hotels, my cup appeared clean on the inside, yet my ink dot was still fully in tact.

1. The night manager here in Brentwood stated that Dawn dish soap is
used to wash them in the room. Then, they are replaced when your stay is over. (funny, the maid knocked on my door and did not know I was staying another night)

2. The day manager here in Brentwood stated that they are supposed to
replace with fresh cups and remove the dirty ones to be sent to the dishwasher. (to which he followed up with a complimentary breakfast for
us)

3. I asked a maid from another floor and area of the hotel if she had Dawn dish soap, she did not understand my question as she did not speak English, she offered me shampoo, towels, and a few other items before I gave up.

4. I found a young man who was a janitor wearing a tag with his name and international status of Mexico if he spoke English, he said some.

I explained to him I wanted to know how they cleaned coffee cups in the room if they were dirty. He went back to the room where the maid was
working. After much discussion, of which I had no way of knowing what
they were saying, he asked wha

this one was sent to the state of GA, no reply recieved.
