Most of these just slide out.
Do not stay on the ground or the top floor.
The ground floor is readily accessible to intruders and the top floor does not allow any room to maneuver.
The first or second (European) floors allow access for most third world country emergency vehicles.
Keep the Do Not Disturb sign on the door, even when you are not there.
Always assume the room is bugged.
Keep the drapes/blinds pulled at all times, even when unoccupied.
Keep a light on in the room when unoccupied.
Keep a small bug-out bag packed with must-have items (money, ID, passport, etc.)

Carry a motion alarm that can be placed over the doorknob.
They are about $20 and can be found in most electronics stores.
Keep a flashlight next to the bed and within arms reach.
