THIS SAN JOSE HOTEL, ONLY THIS TIME, SOMEONE WAS INSIDE THE ROOM. THIS DEVICE IS APPARENTLY SOMETHING THAT CAN BE USED TO UNLOCK HOTEL ROOM DOORS WHEN KEY CARDS ARE LOST. BUT LAST NIGHT AROUND 9:30, DEBORAH WAS STUNNED TO SEE IT COMING UP FROM UNDER THE DOOR IN HER ROOM AT THE AIRPORT HOLIDAY INN. >> LOOKED ALMOST LIKE A COAT HANGER COMING UP UNDER THE DOOR. BUT IT HAD SEVERAL PIECES ATTACHED TO IT. AND THEN I SAW THAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY TRYING TO MOVE IT OVER AND REACH FOR THE DOOR HANDLE. SO THAT'S WHEN I TRIED TO JUST STOP IT WITH MY HAND. >> Reporter: WHILE DOING THAT, DEBORAH CALLED DOWN TO THE FRONT DESK AND HOTEL WORKERS CAME TO HELP AND CONFRONTED A MAN AND A WOMAN, THE SAME MAN AND WOMAN DEBORAH SAYS SHE HAD SEEN THROUGH HER PEEPHOLE KNOCKING ON HER DOOR EARLIER, A KNOCK SHE IGNORED. >> THE COUPLE CLAIMED THAT THEY WERE LOOKING FOR A FRIEND AND THEY HAD KNOCKED ON THE WRONG DOOR. >> Reporter: DEBORAH TOLD THE STAFF SHE HAD SEEN THE COUPLE BEFORE AND SHOWED THEM THIS VIDEO, BUT THE DUO WERE ABLE TO GET AWAY BEFORE POLICE ARRIVED. DEBORAH SAYS SHE THINKS THEY PICKED HER ROOM BECAUSE IT WAS AT THE END OF THE HALL. >> SO I THINK THEY WERE LOOKING FOR ANY NOISE COMING OUT OF THE HOTEL ROOM. SO I WILL DEFINITELY BE MORE NOISY. I WILL HAVE MORE LIGHTS ON. PUT "THE DO NOT DISTURB" SIGN ON THE DOORKNOB. HOPEFULLY THOSE THINGS WILL HELP IN THE FUTURE. >> Reporter: DEBORAH LAUGHINGLY SAYS SHE MIGHT START STAYING IN AIRBNBs FROM NOW ON, BUT SAYS IF ANYONE FINDS THEMSELVES IN A SIMILAR SITUATION -- >> REALLY, DON'T PANIC. I MEAN, I STOPPED THEIR ATTEMPT WITH JUST A COUPLE OF FINGERS. SO DON'T PANIC. STAY CALM AND REACH OUT FOR HELP. >> Reporter: IT'S IMPORTANT THE GUEST CALLED THE POLICE, BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH NO ONE WAS CAUGHT, THE REPORT ALERTS LOCAL HOTELS AND OTHER POLICE AGENCIES ABOUT THE WO
