In the heat of the Cortex district
We enjoyed our stay at Aloft. The rooms are modern and comfortable. There are great common area spaces to eat, grab a drink, or just hang out. Table top games and a pool table were a great touch. The only downside was breakfast. We added it into our reservation and paid in advance for all three days. The options on the menu did not match what we ordered and in our third day they ran out of food… so no breakfast. They did offer us cold cereal or yogurt instead. And they were quite apologetic. But next time I’ll just get breakfast out. Great location in the heart of the Cortex district, meat public transportation, and close to Central West End.

modern, sleek, and clean.
great check in, clean, modern, and a great price for location. close to the zoo, forest park, and a block walk to the Tram. Parking is inconvenient but not bad, pool does not require reservations like mentioned in other reviews. Will be back when in STL. comfy beds.

Never again
As someone who uses Chime as my visa payment card of choice I was basically treated as a criminal at check in. I was told they did not except my form of payment at the time of check in due to what the front desk woman stated as she didnt want to say but people with that type of card tend to be fraudulent. I was agast and required my poor mother who was in St Louis for surgery to put the room on her card. Now the best part was a few hours later the hotel tried to charge my card for the room that was already paid for. I WILL NEVER BOOK AN ALOFT AGAIN. I had stayed in one before and liked it hence why i booked it.

Look into parking if you are driving
Hotel is in a safe neighborhood, however parking was a joke. Especially in the freezing cold.
