Should I be worried about leaving my stuff in the room while I am out and about?
what hotel are you staying at? have you done any research on-line about the hotel?
WHere i stay i leave pleanty of my stuff out..including cash...but i do tend to keep my ipod, wallet and Passport in the room safe. (just to be safe..tho i have never had a problem..but things CAN happen).
THe only thing i would worry about is if you plan on bringing a guest or guests that you dont know back to your room. THEN i would lock everything up!
