I don't think it would help. There's something about city bus stations that seems to make them magnets for that sort of behavior.
My 10-year-old and I were finishing a cross-state bike tour in Albany last year when we rode by the Albany bus station, which was next to our hotel. In the space of about 30 yards we had a passed-out drunk guy, a guy shooting up with a hypodermic needle, a woman pissing in public, and a religious nut telling us we were going to hell.
Oddly enough, it was a nice hotel and extremely bike-tourist friendly.
