Now with virus considerations, hotels want fewer human interactions.
I was staying at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, I could have done an "automated" check-in, which would generate a room key on my cellphone--seemed like a "great" feature;
EXCEPT should my cellphone battery become drained*, I would have NO access to my room.
*this has been known to happen
How was your experience otherwise? Heading out in August....just read a few days ago in an email from MGM about the 7 steps to keep us safer protocols and this option. Flying from the east and late check in...so wondering if I need to pack extra little battery chargers for my iPhone. thought about getting the battery pack that fits like a case on it.
