My mom checked into her hotel and noticed a tiny blue dot sticker on the door. She’s freaking out—what does a blue dot mean?.

paint touch-ups

lock inspections

fire-safety checks

HVAC or bathroom repairs

water pressure evaluations

smoke detector battery updates

A blue sticker could simply mean the room was inspected or is due for inspection.
