The room was really nice and I never felt unsafe in any way. The only inconvenience was the check-in situation, but it was told to me in advance, so I suppose one can't be too picky about that. :)

Great room for the price of the area. Clean and ac worked great. Only thing is that it had minimal towels and make sure to bring your own toiletries as the ones they provided was very small but worked for us.

Having to drive across town just get my room key and then driving across town again to get to my room is a rather inconvenient thing to have to do. Especially when that is only stated in fine print on the very bottom of the page list.
