✅ 6. Never Say Your Room Number Out Loud
❌ Why?
Doing so can compromise your privacy and security, especially in public areas.
✔️ What to do?
Keep it discreet. If hotel staff mention your room number aloud, you can request a room change for safety.
✅ 7. Avoid Using Public USB Charging Ports
❌ Why?
Some USB outlets may be vulnerable to hacking—a practice known as “juice jacking”.
✔️ What to do?
Use your own wall charger and plug directly into electrical outlets.
✅ 8. Don’t Skip the Bed Bug Check
❌ Why?
Bed bugs can appear even in high-end hotels, and can hitchhike home with you.
✔️ What to do?
Before unpacking, inspect:
- Mattress seams 🛏️
- Behind the headboard
- Inside drawer corners
Keep your luggage on the rack, never on the bed or floor.
