Hi.
The door handle is the only option I have for hang and I'm really scared that it might break or something. I'm in a hotel right now, which I'll probably go back to when I'm ready to go, and I'm not sure if it can potentially hold my weight? I'm not tall and weigh about 56 kg. And I hope I can tie a knot around it so it doesn't slip.

It's a PALLINI door handle ,and it looks sturdy? What do you think?

(sorry for any mistakes, English is not my native language.)

Hi.
In my opinion It looks sturdy enough, but if you are not sure of it, here is an alternative: slip a piece of cloth strong enough (Such as the ones used for mopping floors, a t-shirt could work too) through the space between the door and the floor, tie your rope to one of its ends for your anchor point, pass the rope over the door, and twist the extra cloth (on the other side) to prevent the cloth from sliding. Test its stability by holding yourself to it (the rope shouldn't move/slide) or pulling it downward as much as you can beforehand any real attempt.
If you want I can share you an illustration.
