Overall the Aloft is an unique hotel and beautiful but is absolutely the noisiest place I have ever stayed! All night long! Every sound from the room next door. The floor sounded like it was falling in from above us... You could hear the cleaning people in rooms several rooms down... Not a sound barrier to be had! Not enjoyable!
