I cannot understand the logic of some hotels to have so called 'burgular bars' fitted to the windows of rooms. I had the misfortune to be put in a hotel in Spain a few weeks ago and there were bars on my room window. My room was on the third floor and there was no way of getting into the room from the outside except with a ladder. Not the most inconspicious way of breaking into a hotel room is it?
I asked to be moved to a room without bars.
It must be the case that these hotels want to reduce the risk of customers doing a filt in the night and not paying.
What's worse, the loss of a few quid or 75 dead people?
VFE.
PS: BTW, it was not an airline who put me in the above hotel.
