When booking a hotel room, pictures of the parking lot are usually omitted. (It's not exactly the most exciting amenity, after all.) But if you pull up to find that the lot isn't well lit or you don't feel comfortable leaving your car there overnight, you'd better keep on driving. You'll also want to make sure the garage or parking area isn't a far walk from the hotel, so you don't feel uncomfortable stepping out of your vehicle and schlepping your suitcases a mile down the road.

Not every hotel is going to have white-glove service, but they should all at least have attentive hotel employees. If the lobby, reception desk, or concierge is empty, especially during after-hours, you can bet that the building security is not up to par. Similarly, be mindful if the main entrance is left unlocked or lacks cameras.

Here's a sneaky trick. Some hotels will list their address under adjacent neighborhoods that are more popular among travelers. However, when you show up, you find that you're not staying where you thought you were. Another little white lie: They may say they are located "downtown" but are actually near a busy road or highway. Be careful if a hotel mentions it's in an "up-and-coming area," industrial district, or hospital zone (where ambulances are bound to keep you up all night with their ear-piercing sirens).

There are some things worth the splurge—such as quality paint. If a hotel uses cheap paint, it will peel faster and it could even be hazardous to guests. Heat inside the room can release the toxins in the paint, which could cause lung irritation if inhaled. This is even more dangerous in older hotels that used lead-based paint.

Ceilings could leak for various reasons—and none of them are comforting. It could be a sign of mildew or overall structural instability in the hotel building itself. In the worst case scenario, your upstairs neighbor might even have a damaged septic pipe in the bathroom, which could be trickling down to your room. Gross!

Safety and security are the utmost importance when on the road. You wouldn't want somebody sneaking into your room and pilfering through your stuff. So, if the keyless bolt, hinge, or chain on your door is damaged or rusty, you need to make a beeline for the exit sign.

While you might notice dusty dressers or dirty sheets right away, paying attention to what's underneath your feet might not be the first priority. In rooms that get a lot of wear and tear, you'll notice it in the carpet. Look for frayed carpet fabric, faded spots, or worse, actual tracks beaten down from where people constantly come in and out of the room. And to protect your toes from germs, always use the free slippers (or dial down to reception to see if they have a pair).

Guest rooms are required to have evacuation notices and fire escape plans. So, in an emergency, all hotels and resorts should have a clear exit path—but that's not always the case. If the exit signs aren't well lit, or there aren't any at all in the hallways, you can bet that the hotel isn't complying with the mandated safety procedures.

There are many indications of mold in a room, but the most obvious is a leaky faucet. If even the slightest bit of moisture drips from your sink or shower, you'll likely find black, white, green, or yellow specks of mold forming. It's also worth doing a smell test to see if there is a musty odor nearby. Mold is detrimental to your health and hygiene—so point it out to the hotel staff immediately if you find any traces of it. No one wants to add a doctor's visit to their trip itinerary.
