The introduction is funny, and the mechanics are interesting. A couple of minor issues: I assume the loading dock is the bit jutting out to the right, but it's not clear that moving stuff in there makes the roof appear. Similarly, I couldn't work out when the best time to eject rooms was - is it when the timer is high, low or negative? Adding some visual hints could help with those things.

Apart from that, the game has has an interesting atmosphere that keeps your attention. The speech bubbles are a nice touch!

Love your theme, the humor of the game and how you packaged the puzzle game into it!

Interesting puzzling mechanics and background story. I'd love to see more of the Hilbert in future jams =)

The rules weren't obviously decipherable from the introduction, so a bit more explanation in the game presentation or here in the comments would help future players and raters. Especially if you add pictures...

Graphics and controls was fine, but the music got a bit annoying.

Funny dialog, but I unfortunately couldn't figure out how to play myself.

I think following @t-mw and @weine 's advice would definitely help.

I'm going to be repeating what other people have already said, it could do with some indication of how it works, even if it is just on this page. Also, the music could do with a bit of work. But otherwise, the graphics are good and its an interesting puzzle game, maybe some different building layouts could have been good.

Cool!

This is a cool game once you figure out how it works.

Nice game! Liked the mechanics. The idea is very interesting too and has potential. As others have said, clear instructions are much needed even simple text, it took me too long until I figured out how to play it. The music needs some tweaking because sometimes it sounded too much. Good work :)

This one is a winner in my book. Kept my eyes glued to the screen. I love how you can go your own pace to set up, and you choose when to let one of those shoeless bastards in and the timer starts. It is what makes this such an interesting spin on the wood block puzzle.

PS. I read most of lines like hardcoding is the best lol. It is really nice to have a web build too. Super easy to get into. Thanks for making this!

Love it. especial the dialogues and the whole idea of this hotel.

Cool concept. Enjoyed playing this. Could use a little more hint at how the dock area works (or that it's the dock area at all).

Had fun. I'm wondering how the game might be expanded beyond the level you've created. Larger playfield? Other "powerups"? Different and more complicated pieces? Thanks for making it, and I hope you've had a great LD!
