Hotel door locks can be hacked.

It has been known that one brand of hotel lock, Onity, could be easily hacked by plugging into its power port that's on every lock (http://www.computerworld.com/).  At this year's Black Hat an upgraded attack can unlock all the doors in a hotel, including creating a maid's master card.  You scan one card to identify the fields and then brute force the relevant fields (http://www.computerworld.com/).  The solution is old-school: jamb a chair under the door knob or carry a door stop to jamb under the door.
