That's a very informative post. Definitely something to keep in mind in the future.

A couple of points though:
- I often see hotels where the windows do not open. This is especially annoying and frustrating since in case of a fire, it's sometimes counter productive to open the window. In that case, the only solution would be to destroy the window but that can be an issue if there's a lot of smoke coming from outside. I'm not sure what the best course of action is
- Like altabello, I don't like elevators and will often take the stairs down (plus it's good exercise ) and I often notice that hotels store stuff in the exit stairway. I've never thought about reporting it to the fire department but that's a good idea because hotel staff usually just think it's ok...
