That was your big mistake.
Fortunately, you and all FlyerTalkers reading this report can gain a very
valuable lesson learned, indeed.
When a crime has been committed in a hotel, always call the police. Posthaste!
Otherwise, the property has every incentive to "sweep it under the rug" and cover up.
Calling the police is vital to making a record. Dial 911. "What is your emergency?“ "I was just a victim of theft from my hotel room."
Thank you for helping spare others from being similarly victimized.
