There is only 1 microwave that’s kept in the lobby and it’s filthy. They put me way in the 10 floor and in the back, when you get off the elevator it’s such a far walk to get to the room. My room Phone wasn’t working which seems…intentional

The lamp was broken. There were no extra blankets in the room. There was only a small bar of soap and no body wash. I had to go find someone to come to the front desk after waiting 20 minutes. It was not the experience I expected at all.

Don't Stay Here.

Do not stay here. This hotel is in terrible condition and completely falling apart. The front desk staff is polite and helpful. But they deserve a better desk to work from than that aging slab of whatever they're forced to use now. The rooms aren't much better. There's some slippery film or some kind of lubicrated substance on the wooden floors in my room and I don't recommend walking barefoot. The desk chair (see photos) is HORRIBLE. The plastic has fallen off the arm rests and you'll scratch your skin on them. And I won't speculate on what stained the seat. Oh yea... check out the side table (see photos). Completely rotting away. The TV remote barely works. The AC sounds like it belongs in Nascar engine. The toilet refuses to flush without a healthy dose of wishful thinking. I've been staying at Aloft Hotels for years. But this level of disrespect to guests is unacceptable. UPGRADE AND RENOVATE THIS HOTEL! On the positive, the staff is on point. And there was breakfast available on a holiday so that was good and pretty tasty too. In the meantime, travelers... avoid this place.
