Hotel room security

If you need to leave valuables in your hotel room while you are out of your room, and you are worried about possible thefts, try leaving the TV on in your room. If you leave the TV on and you turn up the volume so that anyone coming to your door can hear it, thieves will think that you are in your room and they won't bother trying to break in.
