The other day in Luton at the hotel our crew were staying in(smack in the middle next to the station) , workmen managed to set off the fire alarm at about 0845.
Hotel staff were not initially aware that it was not 'real' and 3 appliances arrived post haste.
Most of our crew slept through the alarm (we had flown all night) and no attempt was made to ensure guest safety. I followed the fire arrows to the nearest fire exit.
On the back of the door there was no caution against using lifts.
There were no directions to the Assembly Point when egressing through Fire Escapes, it was an absolute shambles.
Beware if you stay there! I think its the Thistle - bolted on to a multi-story carpark and next to the Arndale Centre.
