By far the worst Aloft location I’ve stayed at. 1. Noise Levels – The building has absolutely no soundproofing. I could hear conversations from inside and outside (third floor) as if they were in my room. The street noise was unbearable—cars racing by made it feel like I was sleeping at a racetrack. It was impossible to get any real rest. 2. Parking – Parking is managed by a third-party system located on the opposite side of the building. Inconvenient and frustrating, especially when you’re already dealing with a poor stay. 3. Bathroom Layout – The restroom setup is not guest-friendly. The sink is ridiculously small (think fishbowl), and there’s barely any space for two people to get ready at the same time. The only redeeming quality? The bed—very comfortable. Unfortunately, I couldn’t enjoy it because of the constant noise. And the worst part? I’m booked for three more nights… UGH

I’m a heavy sleeper so it didn’t bother me but it’s proximity to the freeway can be loud at night when everyone is trying to sleep.

Hotel was nice enough ... not a lot to do at/near the hotel (restaurants, bars, etc) and no food served on the property was a detractor ... gym was pretty weak too ... but for a college/sports hotel, not shabby ... overpriced and ended up getting charged above and beyond what Expedia charged me

Good for the price but nothing special

Nice style, beds were decent. Shower could use more water pressure and the hot and cold settings were “off”- hottest water came right between hot and cold. Room was chilly when we arrived but heater did warm it up. Front staff was helpful but didn’t seem happy to be there or looking to go beyond the basics of getting us keys.
