A safe I used at a prior company had a digital lock with one combination. A little searching for similar models revealed that the lock had additional combinations, not documented in the manual for our safe, with factory default combinations. We changed the extra entries quickly.
I wonder how many more there are. It's software, it's practically uninspectable, it sure wouldn't surprise me.

Even when I ask though, some establishments clean my room anyways? I can't prove it, but I feel I have had stuff stolen form my room. I just saw a commercial for a new Los Vegas hotel. Their sales pitch was we clean your room 2x daily. I said to myself, "I'm not going there." When I bring a few grand worth of stuff to a hotel, and decide to take a chance with the maid service, I lock my stuff up in a large Pac Safe made for Backpacks.
