Disliked: Amenities
There should be a disclaimer about the noise at this hotel. The rooftop bar is in fact a nightclub with thumping music that permeates the ceiling. Our room was directly below the club and even after the music stopped after 2 am we got to enjoy the sounds of bar stools scrapping the floor as they cleaned up. To make matters worse the party then moved to the room beside us. After hours of more music and rowdiness we called and complained. The staff did come up and address it, the music stopped but the people hollering and coming and going continued until 7 am. We have never had a worse experience at a hotel.

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.

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!!

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.
