Cons:

Unfortunately I got hurt at your facility. Even though it was a accident but when I was walking to my room pushing my 3month old baby in the stroller. The cleaning service didn't see me and accidentally tripped me with the cord. I had to push the stroller out the way because I almost fell on my face.

Pros:

Early check in accommodations & change from king to double bed request

Cons:

Over priced but due to the concert in town I’m assuming. Still seemed a little ridiculous.

Pros:

I love the aloft design and concept and the rooms are very modern

Cons:

The reservation staff when I checked in on 415 was incredibly rude. It was the same person and was rude with me the time before. No. “Hello,” no “wlecome,” just “I need your ID”
That’s the second time it’s happened and just that very gruff greeting as really turned me off from this location. All other staff were very pleasant

I,d definitely stay there again but eat somewhere else nearby.
Pros:

Modern lobby with games and a bar. Nice pool and gym too. Beds were very comfortable. Pet friendly with a designated dog area in the back with public walking access.

Cons:

Hot food breakfast sandwich was slapped together and smashed in a wrapper. Weird lighting controls in the room kind of all or nothing approach.
