One, how to lock hotel doors safely
1、Door latch
When entering, check that the door latch is in good working order and then lock the door.
2、Anti-theft chain
After locking the door, make sure to attach the anti-theft chain. It is also important to personally inspect the quality of the anti-theft chain, as some hotel chains are rusted and even close to breaking.
3、Fragile items should be placed separately.
Place fragile items on top of the handle so that they fall to the ground when the door is opened, creating noise.
4、Clothes hangers
Attach the anti-theft chain and door handle to the same hook, insert the hook into the door frame, and this will prevent the door from being opened from the outside.
5、Alarm system
Purchase a portable alarm to carry with you on your travels, and install it on the door of your hotel room after entering.
Two. Safety prevention measures for hotels
1、Inspect the cat's eye on the door.
Upon entering the hotel room, first check the peephole for any signs of damage or tampering. If the peephole has been tampered with, notify the hotel staff immediately and request a room change. The peephole should provide a clear view, and any tampered peepholes may have a hidden camera installed.
2、Boiling water kettle sterilization
Each hotel room has a kettle, although it may appear clean, no one knows the habits of the previous guests. Some guests may throw cigarette butts, spit, or urine into the kettle. Therefore, it must be thoroughly cleaned and boiled with 2-3 kettles of water before use.
3、Glass cups
Please avoid using glasses found near bathroom sinks, and do not use them for drinking. These glasses are often wiped with cloths by hotel staff and then rinsed with tap water, which typically does not undergo high-temperature sterilization.
4、Pay attention to the presence of insects.
Some hotel rooms may have insects. When entering, first inspect wooden furniture, such as wardrobes or shoe cabinets.
5、TV remote control
TV remotes are often the dirtiest items in a hotel room, as guests frequently touch and use them. Remotes that are used repeatedly are rarely cleaned or disinfected by hotel staff. Therefore, it is best to avoid touching hotel remotes, and if you do, wash your hands immediately afterward.
6、When using in a bathtub, exercise extreme caution.
You can gently scratch the bathtub wall with your fingernail. once treated with a disinfectant, the surface will form a smooth protective layer, and you may hear a slight squeaking sound. However, it is recommended to use a shower instead of a bathtub for greater peace of mind.
7、Check the bedding
Check if the bedding has been washed and replaced. Examine the corners and edges for any hair or debris. Clean bedding will typically show clear folds or creases.
