Tips for a safe hotel stay

After hours of driving, spinning on rides or baking in the sun, you may not be at the peak of alertness when its time to find a place to stay. That's one reason to book motel or hotel reservations in advance -- with advice from your AAA travel agent.

  • When you arrive, watch for people hanging around the lobby, maybe listening as you check in. Be suspicious if a stranger volunteers to carry your luggage. And every time you go to your room, be sure you're not being followed.
  • If someone overhears your room number, you can ask to have it changed.
  • Stash your valuables in the hotel safe. Don't leave even moderately valuable items lying around in your room.
