Rooms we a little weird. Shower and bedroom are pretty much the same room. Not sure who designed that. Room was very clean. Room was loud. Doors and toilet are very loud. Overall I was happy but would tweak rooms a little.

Aloft is a chic and modern hotel. The only concern was the open concept bathroom. I prefer privacy when taking a shower.

The property was clean with unique decor. Great coffee with limited on the go food options. Friendly and helpful staff. Loved the room, however the open bathroom layout can prove to be tricky, if traveling with anyone other than yourself or a romantic partner.

On a travelling holiday, this hotel has been our favourite so far! The room has absolutely everything you’d need; hairdryer, steamer, white noise machine, Netflix and a wall over windows for the best view. We also received food a food token of $35 for each night we stayed and a complimentary drink token each which was great!
