Simple Hotel Safety Tip: The Water Bottle Trick
When checking into a hotel or motel, safety should always come first — and one overlooked spot is under the bed.
Esther, a Dutch flight attendant with KLM, suggests a clever trick:
toss a bottle of water under the bed as soon as you arrive.
If the bottle doesn’t roll smoothly from one side to the other, there could be something — or someone — hidden underneath.
In that case, leave the room and alert hotel staff.
The trick also checks cleanliness.
Dust, trash, or pests often gather under beds that aren’t cleaned properly.
Taking a few seconds to roll a bottle under the bed helps ensure safety and hygiene, giving you peace of mind during your stay.
