Normally, people often check the items in the room, bathroom and toilet to see if they have all the necessary equipment, and check to see if there are any suspicious devices, such as hidden cameras. However, not everyone pays attention to the area under the bed, which can pose potential safety risks for guests.<\/p>\n<div class=\"hb-ad-inpage\">\n<div class=\"hb-ad-inner\">\n<div id=\"hbagency_space_216766_1\" class=\"hbagency_cls hbagency_space_216766\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\">\n<div id=\"tinyhouse-zone.com_responsive_2\" data-google-query-id=\"CPyFlN_ix5ADFVmhgwcdteMuFw\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/23201474937\/tinyhouse-zone.com\/tinyhouse-zone.com_responsive_2_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Esther, a Dutch flight attendant with many years of experience at KLM airline, said every time she checks into a hotel, she throws a bottle of water under the bed as a precaution.

Throw the water bottle vigorously from this side of the bed. If there are people or obstacles underneath, the water bottle will not roll out.
