假期安全如何保证？下

19. Never accept a room on the ground floor, as these are the easiest for criminals from outside to break into.

20. Elevators can be dangerous places, particularly for women on their own. If a suspicious-looking character gets in, leave the elevator as soon as possible.

21. Where possible, select a hotel that has installed electronic locks. Old-fashioned metal keys are usually hung up behind the reception desk, so if a criminal wants to see who is in and who is out, they only have to look behind the desk.

22. As soon as you check in to your room, test that the door lock and the deadlock are working. If they're not, ask for a new room. Whenever you are inside your hotel room, make sure you use the deadlock. It is also worth investing in a device that jams the door. This can be a simple door wedge inserted on your side of the door, or something more elaborate, such as a door jammer.

23. Check that your room has a peep hole so that, if anyone knocks, you can see who's there. If you are unsure whether the person at the door is legitimate, call reception and ask them to confirm that your caller is genuine. Tell the person at the door what you're doing: if they are genuine they will understand; if not they are likely to leave before security arrives.
