Nice hotel in a great location. We love the fact that the Aloft is very dog friendly, and we chose to stay there specifically for the convenience of the outdoor doggy area that used to be near the pool, but they got rid of it, so that was a big disappointment. Rooms are well designed but getting a bit tired. Really poor quality bedding, non-fitted sheets that don't stay on, lumpy and uncomfortable pillows.... It was okay when a room at the Aloft was around $200 but now that it costs $350+ a night, it is not really acceptable. There are more luxurious hotels in this area in the same price range. All in all, the Aloft is a good hotel but the value for money is just not there anymore.

Hotel staff was nonchalant about informing guests about the room and hallways being carpet cleaned. No information was available outside of a letter stating that the cleaning was to occur on a 1 day notice. Further inquiries were deflected with an answer of "I don't know". Personal effort was required by this guest to exempt our room from the carpet cleaning by seeking an audience with the General Manager. No assistance or follow up by the hotel front desk
