True, but they change them arbitrarily and I don't have a say so or see them coming.
I am an 'owner', for the next few decades at least. I have a deed and I pay property taxes. haha
You did read the entire post? The town or HOA doesn't come into by house to do mandatory inspections, at least not where I live.
I am going to assume your joking , and not like the facebook crowd who apparently never read their deed and contact.
You have never lived in a condo , or in a state like NJ where they do mandatory fire and safety inspections in your unit.
They can pop that open if they want. Paint scraper will work - that is what maintenance frequently used when I worked for Disney! Though not for problems getting into rooms for room checks! More because the latch flipped when someone walked out without their room key (to get ice, etc.) and the door slammed and it somehow triggered the latch to catch.
I'm not necessarily for or against this practice, but this was not my experience.
I’m with you. Disney is the only company that barges in or rudely knocks at the crack of dawn that I’ve experienced.
Sick at Bellagio for a couple days last year, even had to extend a day and wasn’t disturbed once.
Yes, the latches can be flipped if motivated, I’ve seen them use a wire hanger at another hotel, but I don’t recall any reports of Disney housekeeping flipping the latch to barge in. Continuing to knock, call and then ultimately send security to do the room check? Yes. If you then continue to refuse to let security in at that point is when I would expect the privacy latch to be flipped by Disney CMs.
So true! At check-in once, we were told to call if we wanted the security check at a certain time. One afternoon I called housekeeping because I wasn't feeling well, going to take a nap, and wanted to ask if they'd come after a certain time for the security check and they did. Would have given me plenty of time to hide things or store them in my vehicle. Instead, I napped and felt better.
But I haven't at Aria, Bellagio, Excalibur, Wynn and Encore (multiple times). We leave our DND sign or flip the switch that puts on the indicator light for DND for days at a time. In addition there's Tropicana and other places my husband has stayed at on the Strip. We come and go into the room often especially when we've stayed at Encore. We've never experienced a security check and don't do daily housekeeping.
You may not realize how crass that sounds, especially for people who were there. We landed about 8 hours after the shooting. The shooter went in and out of their room multiple times during the day for days. 1 security check randomly done (as in the time of day, room selected, etc) is not the be it all you think and it has already been understood that these so-called security checks would not have prevented the attack. So please think a tad more before you say something in such a nonchalant way
Yes, I did. And I still own one in San Diego and another in Wisconsin. Neither have those inspections.
Yes. This policy is more about enhancing the perception of "safety" without materially impacting the reality of safety.
