And are you 100% sure there was no other way out? The two broken windows were pretty far from each other, which suggests two connected rooms, each with its own exit.

jagibelieve accurately explained the typical response to an active shooter scenario. If the shooting continued, then they likely would have entered the room. 

From what I saw, the rooms were connected but the doors were located next to each other. I don't know for sure but it looked that way on a layout of the hotel room.

That makes sense, but if the shooting restarted another ten people could be dead before the door was breached. It's a guess, and the police on the scene guessed in favor of their own safety. I don't blame them for that, but it could have easily been the wrong decision for a lot of other people. And if the cops were outside the door in 11-12 minutes it shouldn't have take another 65 minutes to assemble a team capable of storming the room.

Do you have a link to a layout of the hotel room? I'd like to see anything you have with respect to the crime scene.
