Luckily, there is a simple test to tell if a mirror is a regular or potentially spy mirror . Place your finger against the reflective surface :
- If there is a small gap between your finger and its reflection, the mirror is normal.
- If your finger seems to be stuck directly to its reflection , be suspicious: it could be a two-way mirror .
In this case, don’t take any risks : change hotels immediately to protect your privacy.

Questionable sanitary facilities: a breeding ground for bacteria
Nothing is more unpleasant than a poorly maintained bathroom. But beyond just discomfort, dirty faucets and shower heads can indicate a serious lack of hygiene .
Why is this worrying?
A hotel that neglects to maintain its plumbing may also fail to properly wash sheets, towels, or filter the air conditioning . Before you put your belongings down, check:
- Faucets and shower : excessive limescale, hair or mold ? Bad sign.
- The shower head : if it is clogged with impurities, this often means poorly maintained pipes .
Good reflex : slightly unscrew the shower head (without forcing) to see if it contains deposits. A dirty interior is a warning signal : it is better to find another hotel.
