The hotel was clean & quiet. Someone accessed my room at 4am with their card, I yelled out & they disappeared. As a single woman travelling I found the experience unnerving & did not feel safe for the rest of the morning. When I reported to the front desk on check out the receptionist seemed to be non plussed, said this happened alot with their customers. I am disappointed & disturbed that your card access is not exclusive to your room. Will not stay again.
