1. I got there a but early, but the on duty clerk let me store my luggage while i went to lunch at steelhead and bought my OCF ticket at the hult center-(all within a midling walk-over by the amtrak station)-the hotel itslef is within a reasonable distance of amtrak,, the main citibus transfer point, and (ugh) greyhound-(that last one makes the neighbor hood 'ahem' colorful-in other words, even tho the area is not unsafe per se, it behooves one to lock the car up properly in the general area.
