Think like a criminal. Look for things that make it easier for robbers to commit crimes. Criminals usually avoid well-lit areas. The more light surrounding the hotel, the safer you are. Illuminated parking lots and corridors are your best bet.
Criminals maintain low profiles.
They don t want to be noticed. So before you check into your hotel room, check the parking lot and common areas for suspicious places where criminals might hide and make it a point to stay away from them. The majority of crimes take place where there is the least activity. Rooms located toward the back of a hotel are more susceptible to crime because there s less activity. When making reservations, request a room toward the front of the hotel where the most people are present.
