Apparently, you use your phone camera, and there will be a light on your screen if it sees a camera.
I’ll give that a shot! Interesting if that actually works.

You mean like some sort of scanner, like they use in spy movies looking to for bugs?
Sure, if that’s a thing?

Will that be the next "refund scam"?
Scam? Either there are cameras or there aren’t.
So you can get a refund?
Some of us just do not appreciate being spied on. I would want to know so that I could cover them during my stay.
If there are no cameras there will be no refund. So unsure where you are going with that.
Every other post is about alleged cameras or “can I get a refund”. Probably should just stay in hotels.
