Stop your hotel being hacked with the following method
1. Delete phpmyadmin
2. open my.cnf and enter the following at the bottom

[mysqld]
skip-networking
set-variable=local-infile=0

3. Change mysql admin username
mysql> update user set user="mydbadmin" where user="root";
mysql> flush privileges;

Hm, What I do is, Usually use a different port than 80. Change root username, and password, remove the PMA user etc. And just customize it. :p.
