The allegation has been made, so hopefully the poster will either show us the basis or we will know it's baseless. As has been mentioned on other threads and news reports, glasses were shown to be cleaned with Lemon Pledge and cumforters, carpet, sheets and furniture failed the black light test, so changes were made, but, of course, in both those cases there was evidence. My search could only find that old FT thread and one older non-FT thread, but maybe there is something else out there.

ADDED: FT was searched for the terms "wash" and "slippers" returning the following results. The first page goes back through May 2015 and has no mention of washing slippers, nor does the single Marriott thread, over two years old, mention this. It's about the size of Thann bottles. There are no SPG threads on the first page. Bing and Google searches for "hotel" and "wash" and "slippers" returned nothing but sales sites, instructions on how to wash slippers at home and the single FT thread posted earlier. Again, hopefully the poster will show us the basis for this claim because it is gross and nobody could be vicious enough to make this up.
