How to Investigate the Blond Man & Access Room 206

Step 1: Reach the Hotel Floor with Rooms 205–207

After driving to the hotel and starting the “Investigate the Blond Man” objective, follow the mission prompts upstairs to the reception area. Take the stairs on the left to reach the floor where Rooms 205, 206, and 207 are located. You’ll see a guard blocking the corridor and a maid talking on her phone nearby. Distract him to get past him.

Once you’re outside Room 206, you’ll notice that it’s locked. So, instead, you’ll have to get the key to Room 205 from a nearby maid.
