A closer look
You really thought a four-digit code and a metal box from 2004 was keeping your passport and laptop perfectly secure? Hotel safes are notoriously flawed. Most management teams never bother to change the manufacturer's default override password. If you forget your pin, a minimum-wage employee frequently just types in '000000' or '999999' and the door violently pops open. Your valuables are genuinely only as secure as the extreme laziness of the person cleaning your room.
