What is this checklist for?

This checklist is designed to help you thoroughly inspect a hotel room before settling in, ensuring cleanliness, safety, and functionality. It helps you identify any issues and report them to hotel staff so they can be addressed, ultimately improving your stay.

Who should use this checklist?

Anyone staying in a hotel room! Whether you're a frequent traveler or just on a short vacation, this checklist is a valuable tool for ensuring a comfortable and worry-free stay.

Is this checklist printable?

Yes! The template is designed to be easily printable, allowing you to physically mark off each item as you inspect it.

What categories does the checklist cover?

The checklist covers several key categories, including cleanliness, safety, functionality (electronics, plumbing, HVAC), and overall condition. It addresses things from bed linens to smoke detectors.

What should I do if I find an issue during the inspection?

Immediately report the issue to the front desk or hotel staff. Document the problem (photo or written note) if possible, so you have a record. The hotel is responsible for addressing these issues to ensure your comfort and safety.

Can I customize the checklist?

While the template is comprehensive, you can absolutely customize it! Add or remove items based on your personal preferences or specific concerns. This is your checklist, so tailor it to your needs.

What does 'HVAC' refer to?

HVAC stands for Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. This section of the checklist covers the room's climate control system.

Why is checking the smoke detector important?

The smoke detector is a critical safety device. Verifying it's present and functioning is essential for your safety in case of a fire.

What is the 'overall condition' category for?

This category covers general observations about the room's appearance and functionality beyond the specific items listed in other sections. It's a chance to note any subtle issues you might spot.
