Smoking in Hotels

Some Hotels have different rules for smoking marijuana in the room, it's best to just ask beforehand. Suprisingly enough some hotels do not allow smoking herb in the room and will have signs displayed indicating so. However I have heard many people do it anyway, and just open the window to air it out a bit, without any problems. I guess that is up to you whether you want to risk it or just make sure to find a hotel where you can be comfortable and not have to even worry about it!
