We take AU$ with us and usually stay a month, so several thousands are involved. We shun the mickey mouse room safes, because they are usually digital with no key. The safety code is set by the hotel in case someone forgets the code they have selected, the staff can always open the safe. This is OK if you keep say $100 or so there, but it is worrying if you have several thousand in it. The safety deposit box is reasonably safe because of the two key system and we also take a small padlock to lock the box that slides into the safe box.
