Please use a VPN anyway, as if hotel WiFi is secure lmao
HTTPS solved much of the security issues of untrusted networks. As long as you're not doing banking or whatever, you should be fine without a VPN.
It should be fine as long you don't click through any SSL errors. And something like a bank should have HSTS enabled, meaning your browser will refuse to load the site if there's an SSL error.
They don't let me choose a password longer than 6 characters. I don't assume anything about my bank's security.
