My sister is staying in a hotel and all the keycards stopped working.
- ant6n 3y agoWhat happens in a situation like this? Does the staff issue physical keys? Do the doors even have manual locks? Do the staff walk every body to their room?
- atomicstack 3y agoAbout a year ago I stayed in a hotel and the door lock started misbehaving one morning while I was at breakfast. Went to the front desk, got a new card, went back to the room and discovered it still didn't work. After doing that two more times, someone was sent up to the room with a mysterious, palm-sized device with a USB cable hanging off it, which they plugged into a well hidden USB port on the bottom of the lock. The device performed some black magic, and after about 30 seconds a light on the lock changed colour from orange to red and it started functioning correctly again.
- mj1586 3y agoThis also happened on Leap Day 2020 with Onity locks used in Crown Plaza Hotels. See https://i.imgur.com/GI5A3jW.png https://i.imgur.com/GI5A3jW.png. I wonder if it's the same issue never fixed? Can you share with us the hotel chain and/or the lock manufacturer? Thanks.
