Newport Beach: So, there’s this woman named Ani who was traveling solo and had a pretty creepy experience at a hotel. She checked in and the receptionist said her room number out loud. Yikes, right? There was a guy nearby who could hear everything.
She explained that instead of just giving her a key, the receptionist wrote down her room number and code. This guy from a restaurant was right there, handing out business cards, and he totally caught the whole thing. Talk about uncomfortable!
Ani was really unsure about what to do next. She thought about asking the hotel to change her room code because it just didn’t feel safe. She mentioned that she didn’t think the guy meant any harm, but still, it was a bit sketchy having someone know her room number and code.
When she shared her story online, people jumped in to support her. They were all like, “You should definitely tell the hotel about this!” One former hotel manager even said she should insist on a new room if the front desk gave her any trouble.
Another commenter said that as soon as someone says your room number out loud, you should just ask for a different room. It’s all about safety, right? A former flight attendant also chimed in, saying this is basic safety stuff. It’s wild how one little slip can make you feel so uneasy!
