Due to the process of opening these rooms, they are often left untouched, meaning you can drop in and are almost guaranteed to get good loot from finding a key.
Keys come in different rarities too, marked by the rarity tier colors, which also correspond to areas of the map. The Skeleton Key is a rare key, but there are ones that are more common, like the Cycle Frontier Loose House Key.
Once you've found a key, you can continually use it when dropping back into the map, but if you die you will lose it and be required to seek it out again. You can counter this by putting it in your safe pocket.
