Gerry: I am in fact included with every room I rent.
And I have no problem signing guests in, it's a reasonable request.
< Keeps reciting to himself: I am dangerous, I am dangerous, I am dangerous LOL
just a random thought, not sure if it would do anything or not, but how about when a guest is signed in a photo of guest is taken, if no problems when the guest leaves he/she gets the photo to do what he/she wants with, if there is a problem the hotel management has a photo to give to police etc
Tic Toc aint making this this into a black and white thing.. People on here want "locals" not to be allowed at hotels, resorts, condos etc..... This is their country not ours.. If you don't want them at the resorts don't come to jamaica..
I'm not getting that....I think what people "on here want" is to feel safe while on vacation at their hotel/condo. Allowing unfettered access to unpaying guests or visitors does not contribute to a secure environment. If someone wants to invite someone else back to their hotel room, they should sign that person in at the front desk and then THEY are responsible for the conduct of that visitor and what transpires while that visitor is on site.
Along with that make sure there is plenty of security personnel on-staff to ensure the safety of the paying customers.
It's really not very complicated.

lmao airportworker - i'm sorry but that is patently ridiculous.
-- taking mugshots of all visitors on the property - seriously?? Putting forth the concept that "all visitors are potential criminals unless proven otherwise"?? You seriously think insulting people in this manner would be a good business practice, or garner more customers for the hotel? this would be an EPIC fail.
besides which it's logsitically impractical - what hotel wants to add a whole new layer of bureaucratic tasks for staff to do, along with the extra filing and categorizing this would create for the front desk staff?
not to mention insulting & demeaning guests by implying said guest is a child who cannot be responsible for themselves and their visitors.
again - it is not the hotels' responsibility to monitor, nor legislate, who their paying guests associate with. if their policy is to permit visitors on-property, all they can do is require said visitors to sign in, for basic security purposes; imho that's just basic common-sense.

Muck I think guests DO usually get signed in places .I am sure it was said the ladies friend was booked in there.
I want to be safe on my vacation too
Even having signed in guests does not make things safe though as they may not have provided all of their details or even real details tourist or Jamaican.
Personally I do not stay somewhere where people can wander in and out freely and nobody know who they are with or what they are doing there.That goes for anyone from anyplace.
Some of the big expensive all inclusives offer day passes and I am sure they do not have a disclaimer on the passes saying no Jamaicans.
What I think some of us want or mean is we want no violent people or robbers but they come in all shapes and forms and most likely would ignore the sign!All we can do is book at a place we are happy with that employs good honest staff and use the security on offer.
Its used in parts of London, Glasgow and in Amsterdam, it is only used when paying guests are signing in others for the day or night, btw you do know that in New York stills are taken from the cctv of everybody who enters at least one hotel i know of, the still is then fed through a number of databases
I think it is a funny idea airporter mugshot at check in! could work!
...or what's wrong with demanding that any guest/visitor provide proof of identification (photo ID) and then just make a photocopy?
