I 100% agree, but also anyone who doesn’t use the safety lock when staying in a hotel is crazy.

Yes. And I go one step further. I always take a battery-powered wedge alarm with me when I travel. I put it at the door. If the door opens, a loud-as-hell alarm goes off. They’re available on Amazon, among other places.

Plus I always keep a weapon close. Doesn’t have to be a gun.
But something will be close.

ABSOLUTELY!
My daughter travels for her job from time to time.
I’m going to let her know about this.

Correct. Part of my routine.
But if the lady happened to be out of the room and the perp got in there...

Safety lock. Sixty pound of force maximum? Even if the chain doesn't break the mounting plates are not anchored well. Use something like this:
