Kate - no worries on the hotel. I knew the price was too good to be true. And it did look like a pretty nice place, setting the neighborhood aside. And the neighborhood I suppose wasn’t *too* terrible — I’d feel OK walking through there alone if dressed down appropirately, I just wouldn’t advise wearing anything that makes you look like you’ve got money, or doing anything else that paints you as a mark — like dragging a suitcase into a hotel.

I’m really just more upset that I couldn’t get into The Metro, it really looked like exactly the right call.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!
