AND check for smoke under the door, and by feeling the door for heat before opening. Nobody wants to run out into a raging inferno - it can spoil the rest of your stay, unless you love burn units and are lucky.

(Not to mention, for safety, don't stay on the first floor, and for fire safety in some less than developed locations, not higher than sixth or seventh floor, not higher, where ordinary fire ladders can not reach.)

bongalina, welcome to FlyerTalk, and thanks for your contribution to this discussion. I'd rather be inconvenienced than dead.
