Loved the hotel staff, proximity to DPAC and the room was very nice. The 2 train horns during the night was the only issue. But would stay there again anyway.

Stayed at Aloft before but never had so much issue with noise. Theres noise (probably exhaust but sounds like vacuum cleaner) from the bathroom every 30 minutes or so and throughout the night which ruined my sleep. And then there's the train that blows it horns for a straight minute starting 5am which is unbearable.
Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025

The staff at the Aloft went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable! The recent renovation is beautiful. The food for breakfast was great, and the bar was easily accessible and great service. I highly recommend this hotel!

Stayed here 3 nights during our college tours in the area. Loved the size of the hotel room. Easy parking in the garage right next door to the hotel. Great gym and pool to cool off. Lobby bar and pool table was a nice spot to hang out at night and relax. Loved the location too!

If you’re going to a show at the DPAC there is no better place for the money. Rooms were up to date with large windows and tall ceilings with a more modern design. Bathroom was upgraded and showers were nice. Easy onsite parking in downtown with an additional parking fee. But it’s good for 24 hours so you can stay parked after checkout to walk around or enjoy a show. Great experience overall.
