Pretty techy- can check-in/out without interacting with any staff. You can even open the front door and door to your room with their app.
The only thing that I think they can improve on is having an outlet at each bed. Having an outlet inside the locker is nice and all but I would like to have easy access to my phone when I go to bed and when I wake up.
