Decent view and design of room. However, the shower head wouldn’t turn all the way off, no area in shower to place items besides ground, Kleenex ran out - the last bottom Kleenex sheets were a different color and folded down as if a guest put them there.

Great stay!! There was so much to do in the building itself. Only complaint is that our balcony was covered in broken glass. I understand the railing to the balcony next door shattered, but they didn’t seem to care.. and there was quite a lot of glass bits that reached our balcony.

Not the best neighborhood and the layout of the hotel is interesting with office space and parking on the lower levels and hotel rooms on upper levels. Our bathroom bar. door required 2 people to open and close it and remote control was broken.

We love Aloft Hotels! If we find one we will usually pick there to stay. This Aloft did not disappoint. It was clean and the decor is so cute. The pool was great and it was easy to find. The neighborhood it was in is a little sketch but I never felt unsafe. We would absolutely stay here again!!
