Be alert when checking in. Protect your cash and valuables by keeping them with you. Never say your room number loudly enough for others to overhear or give it out to anyone you do not know. Be sure to lock your door when you are in your room as well as when you leave. Call the front desk to verify any unexpected deliveries or room service. Do not leave your door open while you are in the room. Always tell your advisor where you are going. Do not leave your room after curfew.
GENERAL TRAVEL TIPS • • • •
Never leave money or valuables unsecure in your room; use your hotel room’s safe. If you see any suspicious person or activity, notify hotel management. Ask the hotel for the most direct route to restaurants and shopping. Don’t wander through shortcuts. Don’t go out alone; travel with at least one other person. There is safety in numbers.
