The hotel was clean and comfortable. The housing project across the street, homeless people walking around and yelling at my daughter, and boarded up convenience store across the street made this a “never staying there again” property. The second night I was there, I was awakened by a gunshot that sounded louder a very large caliber weapon. I was just about to fall back asleep when it happened again. Definitely not a good location for a hotel.

Housing project. This was the view out of the hotel front door

This was the view from my room. Notice the mattress on the sidewalk.

This is near the end of the hotel parking lot. The stairwell opens up to this street. I saw lots of “activity” around this place at night.

Our stay at Aloft Waco was okay overall. The best part was definitely the location—everything we wanted to do was just a short 4–5 minute drive away, and there were plenty of restaurants and places to check out nearby. The hotel has a modern look, and the room was fine for a short stay. Nothing fancy, but it got the job done. If you're looking for a convenient spot close to Waco attractions, it's a solid option.

Great little hotel! The staff was friendly. The room was spacious, clean and comfy. The lobby was cute and I enjoyed a glass of wine from the bar. The only negative I noticed is that we were on the 4th floor and it took the water in the shower a long time to heat up, and even then it never got hot - warm but not hot.
