The Consulate General of Japan in Frankfurt is alerting the public about crimes occurring within short-term rental facilities.
There have been incidents of crimes in various short-term rental accommodations located in the vicinity of Frankfurt, including cases involving Japanese nationals.
Although the accommodation rates are affordable, many facilities have safety concerns such as the absence of staff at the front desk, deficiencies in room locks or safes, and more. There are also cases where cleaning staff misuse master keys to enter rooms and commit crimes, posing a risk even of encountering an intruder while in the room. Therefore, when selecting an accommodation, it is advised to consider not only cost-effectiveness but also safety aspects comprehensively. In case of any concern regarding safety, along with taking care of valuables and personal belongings, physical safety should also be considered.
