Howard Johnson® By Wyndham Oceanfront Plaza Hotel

Like all buildings, hotels and motels CAN have fires. Plan what to do when you check in. You won’t have time to plan during a fire.

• Study the emergency route on the back of your guest room door.
• First, find the two exits nearest your room. Be sure they are unlocked and unblocked. Then count doors between your room and the exits so you’ll have a reference point if it’s smoky.
• When you hear an alarm, ACT, don’t investigate. STAY CALM.
• If the fire is in your room, get out and close the door. Once out, report the fire.
• If the fire is not in your room, leave if you can. First, feel the door. If its cool, open it slowly and go to the nearest exit. Crawl if there is smoke. Fresh air will be at the floor. Take your key so you can go back if you can’t use the exits.
• NEVER USE ELEVATORS DURING A FIRE. They could stop at the fire floor.
• If smoke enters your room, stay low and hold a wet cloth in front of your mouth. Open all of the windows.
• If your door is hot, don’t open it. Your room may be the safest place to be. Seal all cracks and vents with wet towels. Shut off fans and air conditioners. Fill tub with water for extinguishing purposes. Alert staff to your location. Signal out your window. Call the fire department and wait to be rescued.

Your Best Defense Against a Fire is to Plan Ahead

Your safety and the security of your personal property are of the utmost concern to those of us who welcome you as our guest. We urge you to take advantage of the following suggestions.

SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES
DO NOT LEAVE MONEY OR VALUABLES IN YOUR ROOM. We provide in-room safe deposit boxes for your use. A nominal fee will be charged to your account automatically. Under state law, the hotel is not responsible for loss unless articles have been secured in these boxes.

DOUBLE LOCKS AND CHAINS
For additional security, utilize the lock provided on your door upon entering. This will prevent the door from being opened by a regular room key. As an additional precaution, please secure the safety lock.

ADMITTANCE
Do not admit persons to your room without first making identification. A “peep hole” is provided in your door for your convenience. If there is any doubt about the person’s identity, please contact the front desk.

KEY CARDS
Do safeguard your key card. Be sure to leave it with the desk clerk upon departure.

We hope that these procedures will contribute to your comfort and well-being during your stay at our hotel.
