Outted by a hotel

[27th Jennifer]

I'm sorry but no it isn't illegal. If a complaint is made, then management does have the right to go into a room. I've had to do this many times at my hotel

If you have a do not disturb sign, no one is going to knock on the door. If there is a complaint, however, yes, someone will enter the room to resolve the problem. ALWAYS put out the privacy sign and close the security latch. I use an e-key (I'm a dept manager) and have gone to room for a repair job, only to find the room was rented and occupied between the time I checked the computer downstairs and when I reached the room. I've over-ridden deadbolts and had to apologize profusely!
