Stay away
Horrible, horrible, horrible! I had to switch rooms 3 times due to all the issues at the hotel. HVAC unit not working. Debilitating rooms, shower floor paint coming off the tiles, mattresses sunken in and worn out. TV’s not working

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.

The property is extremely run down and not kept . The lobby is misleading of what the rooms actually look like . Structurally it needs work . The room ceilings were crumbling and the painting of the showers doors and crevices are unappealing. Typically Alofts from city to city are good but I was very disappointed with this location .
