Yeah, I would much prefer an intruder not being able to get in at all, compared to make a bunch of noise once he does.

With all the talk about night-time breakins, this is a good thing to have. Plus, at RiU, like a lot of Jamaica hotels, there is no deadbolt. Anyone with an old key can enter, and with such a large resort, there is too big of a chance of dishonest employees or inside jobs thefts.

On TA, there are simply too many stories of break-ins for there not be a problem. Plus, two fellow boardies, including one who is participating in this particular thread (not me), have been victimized at RIU.
