Place a Drinking Glass On Your Door Handle
When staying in a hotel or Airbnb, it’s natural to worry about safety. To ensure your peace of mind, lock your door and place an empty drinking glass on the inside handle. This trick serves as a makeshift alarm system. If an intruder attempts to enter your room, the jiggling of the handle will cause the glass to fall and shatter, alerting you to their presence. The loud noise could startle them away, or they might unknowingly step on the broken glass, giving you valuable time to take action.
