From the article: Stolen Items from Hotel
Nothing's more frustrating than returning to your hotel room and finding your valuables have gone missing. Except, perhaps, the hotel management's response that there is "nothing we can do." Now's you chance to complain. Ever had something stolen? (Registration is NOT required.) Had something stolen?
Make sure it's really missing
- Missing items in hotel rooms is a rather frequent occurance. One of the reasons that some hotels may not take it as seriously as they should is that, most of the time the item is found, and was simply misplaced inside the room. Look around your room thoroughly before you call the front desk, but not too long, as it is best if you report it immediately in case the item was stolen, so that the culprit can be caught before their shift ends.
