This news article reports that some parts of the Grand Floridian has mold problem.
The moldy discovery came from the guests themselves when a Florida family checked into their $788 per night hotel room hoping for a magical getaway. What they got instead was a room filled with a musty odor, much like that of an old fishing cabin at a lake that hadn't been aired out since the previous summer. It didn't take long before the guests spotted a dark, powdery substance on the walls and along the baseboards of the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Concerned for their safety, the family left immediately and checked into a different resort.
OK, viewing the pictures just cause the hair on the back of my neck to stand up.
The thing here is how come the housekeeping services didn't catch this earlier? If it gets to the point that one can actually smell it, shouldn't something be done already? Again, this is at the Grand Floridian, no less. One would be surprised if it occurs at the value resorts. One would be utterly shocked that it occurs at the deluxe resorts.

This "press release" is just a sad promotion for a company that focuses on Mold Removal. IMHO it's a non-story. The nature of mold is that it stays hidden until it gets bad enough to be found. Then when it's found everyone freaks out. It's an easy cleanup (usually) and Disney certainly has the resources to do that quickly and thoroughly. The nature of Floridian weather means that mold will grow just about everywhere. The only question is when you catch it.
Ah, thanks for that info, John. That makes a bit more sense.
Like I said, I find it very difficult to believe that housekeeping would let something like that go on up to that stage. I'm guessing that this is more of an extreme case that got highlighted.
