Maybe for traveling or maybe for business, people more or less stay in hotels.

After staying in a hotel, make sure you pay attention to these 7 precautions for your safety.

1. Try not to touch the TV remote control

Not all hotels can meet the standards of five-star hotels, small hotels look clean cups are not necessarily sterilized, and seemingly clean sheets are not necessarily just changed. TV remotes are very capable of harboring dirt, and you can't be sure what other people have done before using that remote. So if you want to watch TV, wipe the remote with a sanitizing hand sanitizer before using it.

2. Leaving valuables lying around

If you can't carry your valuables with you, find a way to leave them in the hotel's care, which usually comes with a fee. If you're staying at a hotel that doesn't offer hosting services, you'll have to find a way to hide your valuables. Valuables such as passports, money, and electronics should be stored in the hotel safe provided in the room. This reduces the risk of theft or loss. You can also try to put them in some inconspicuous places, such as pill boxes and eyeglass cases. However, the safest thing to do is not to take too valuable items out of the house.

3. Don't give out your room number easily

When checking in at the front desk of a hotel, don't say your room number out loud, as it's very dangerous if it's overheard by someone with an ulterior motive. If someone claims to be an employee, verify their identity with the hotel staff before providing any information or granting access to your room. Don't disclose your room information to strangers you don't know well or just met, try to arrange a meeting to communicate in the hotel lobby or restaurant and other public places.

4. Open the door with caution

When you hear someone knocking on the door, many people will naturally open the door, which is very dangerous. Be sure to check who is at the door before you open it. Make sure the door is locked when you go out and don't leave the door half closed, even if you are just a few meters away to pick up something, someone may have already sneaked into the house.

5. Inspect Emergency Exits

Familiarize yourself with the emergency exits and stairwells in case of evacuation. If the room is located on a higher floor, check for the availability of emergency evacuation equipment, such as rope ladders or harnesses.

6. Use Secure Wi-Fi

Avoid using public Wi-Fi networks, especially for sensitive tasks like online banking or accessing personal accounts containing private information. Instead, use a virtual private network (VPN) to encrypt internet traffic and protect data.

7. Avoid Over-Sharing on Social Media

Refrain from posting real-time updates about travel plans or locations on social media platforms. Such information can make you a target for theft or other malicious activities.
