Is the Hotel or Airbnb you are staying at really safe ? Little do people know, in their rooms there are predators lurking in the dark watching their every move.

You would never even expect where these cameras are hiding. Creeps could plant them in plain sight like coffee makers, towel racks, bluetooth players, smoke detectors, vents and tv’s. These are only some places these predators may use. Normally guests would simply worry about if their hotel or Airbnb was thoroughly clean, like checking the sheets and wash room to make sure they’re not dirty but it would never occur to them to check for hidden cameras.

Minneapolis police say they are investigating reports of some “recording devices” found in guest rooms at the Minneapolis Hyatt Regency.
