The staff was very courteous and helpful. There was an insect infestation in the window. I think it was just lady bugs. Everything else was clean. Loved the quirky decor.

Room was cleaned exceptionally well; day refresh was perfect. Front desk staff were helpful, warm and had good senses of humor. Bath products good; room had safe and mini-fridge (which was a bit hidden). Only drawback is the proximity to the main road, which can have some noisy traffic (but not that much). We’ve stayed at the Courtyard Marriott near the Friday Center for conferences in the past, but we plan to stay at the Aloft for all future visits. It is cheaper, cleaner, nicer, and friendlier (and parking is easy and free!). Recommend highly.
