Whether you’re on vacation, a business trip, or a quick getaway, checking into a hotel room involves more than just picking up the key. To ensure a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable stay, here are 10 essential things to do as soon as you check into your hotel room.
1. Inspect the Room for Cleanliness
- Check the bed linens, towels, bathroom, and common surfaces (like tables and remote controls).
- Look for hair, stains, or signs of improper cleaning. If something seems off, request a new room immediately.
Pro Tip: Use disinfectant wipes on high-touch surfaces like light switches, door handles, and the TV remote.
2. Check for Bed Bugs
- Pull back the sheets and inspect the mattress seams, especially near the headboard, for tiny brown spots or live bugs.
- Look at the bed frame, under the pillows, and around the nightstand.
What to Do: If you spot anything suspicious, ask for a room change far from the current one.
3. Test the Locks and Safety Features
- Ensure the door locks, deadbolts, and peephole are functioning properly.
- Check the window locks and balcony door for added security.
- Locate the in-room safe, and test it to ensure it works.
4. Locate Emergency Exits and Safety Instructions
- Familiarize yourself with the fire escape plan (usually posted behind the door).
- Find the closest emergency exits and stairwells in case of a fire or evacuation.
Why This Matters: Knowing your surroundings can save precious time in an emergency.
