actually they might. Hotels tend to have a silent alarm.
My boyfriend did that for me for my birthday (Radisson Suites Hotel) and while in the process of putting all the candles out he recieved a phone call from the front desk saying the alarm went off and that they would be sending someone down.
(he ran to put them all away.
So what he did was take out the battery of the fire alarm. Problem solved!
I noticed a lot of people saying "unless you light A LOT!" my boyfriend had about 20? maybe less….and just as he was lighting them thats when he got the phone call. I guess it just depends ….
