How do I get into the locked room in the hotel?
  • 1 of 5: All you need is the right item.  (This is only a puzzle in Mega-Monkey mode.)
  • 2 of 5: Something often used to open a locked door.
  • 3 of 5: Try to get into the Goodsoup crypt first, and you should find it.
  • 4 of 5: You won't get into the Goodsoup crypt right away, but you will find Stan in another crypt.
  • 5 of 5: And he'll give you a laminated card that you can use to get in the room. Just use it on the door.
