The property was ok! Great location, many restaurants in the area. Pictures are misleading, pool is extremely small and not very inviting for guest, poorly maintained. Several leaks throughout the building, resulting in an awful smell throughout the hallways due to wet carpet. Staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. Met some prostitues in the lobby, very interesting experience. Bullet holes in the window. Might want to repair that Aloft! Next time I visit Houston, I will definitely be choosing a different hotel.

Soon as you walk through the entrance door, it’s smells like sewage, getting the room thru this third party app and not knowing what your room will look like is not cool. My boyfriend and I picked a king size room, but when we got there it was no view just a window facing a wall, that was wack, I advised the staff as my key wouldn’t unlock the doors to the roof top, about my room she said she would see what she could do, and she said she get us another key card, well yeah she never contacted us… traveled far just to not get a window view and stared at a wall the whole time I was there in that room…. Room 801 no window view just a wall
