    Pros +

    • Very clean, nice amenities. Also needing the room key to use the elevator.
    • Location and cleanliness
    • Excellent location. Easy parking. Very nicely designed room.

    Cons -

    • The elevator smelled like weed most of our stay.
    • Hotel was fine but the shower floor is so slippery (I have never once experienced this level of slippery). I slipped and slid and now have a bruise.
    • Does not offer free breakfast. When did the filter came up but when got to hotel and went to breakfast had to pay for breakfast. So advertising is misleading. Did not have enough plugs and charging station. Did not like the fact there was no microwave

    Excellent location. Easy parking. Very nicely designed room.

    Food from waht I assume was the previous person who stayed in the room was still present in the refrigerator.

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 2-7-2023

    Friendly staff. Room layout and views. Wide halls.

    Hallways had a strange smell, maybe pets mixed with cleaning products. Common areas, hallway and elevator floors, looked a little dirty/dingy. Coffee and hot water would be nice all day.

    3RohitPosted on: 12-20-2021

    Location near campus

    Not clean room. Smell dust in carpet. Prior customers food was left in refrigerator. Chair very dusty. Bathroom door not closing and broke from top. One bed was not done. Mold in bathroom shower. glass door in shower not closing properly.No way stay again

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 11-9-2021

    Location-close to UF, parking availability, lively lobby atmosphere, modern decor, comfortable beds, clean nice room.

    Were signs that masks required but some front desk/cleaning staff not wearing masks, guests not wearing masks either. No regular coffee packets in room just decaf. Walls seemed thin lots of noise from hallway in early AM & noise from people walking above

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-8-2021

    Very modern, clean look, free pool table for hotel guest use, hand sanitizing stations throughout facility, use of card key for entrance & opening doors throughout hotel. The fitness center was nice.

    The hotel is near a student housing area. We could hear the cars passing by very clearly into our room. The bathroom door to our room was broken & did not slide close. No breakfast was available during our stay. No hot tub.

    9AngeloPosted on: 8-24-2021

    Great location close to everything we needed. restaurants, shopping, and the university. Very clean, comfortable room. Parking was easy and accessible. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will stay again.

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-1-2021

    Great staff, newly build and very clean

    Unfortunately, the breakfast area was closed due to COVID

    10JenniferPosted on: 6-2-2021

    Modern look and plenty of lounge seating.

    The carpets were stained throughout the hotel.

    10KathyPosted on: 6-1-2021

    The hotel staff was very pleasant and helpful. They allow pets free of charge and offer free parking. Beautiful room and lobby area. Very clean outside also. Would for sure stay again.

    10RichardPosted on: 12-11-2020

    Modern decor. Location is perfect.

    No hot breakfast

    8TimothyPosted on: 11-10-2020

    Aloft rooms are nice, and different

    Nothing cool to walk to; Hotel restaurants and bar closed for COVID; Nearby Hilton is cheaper

    10BarbaraPosted on: 9-9-2020

    I liked the location. The staff were excellent. Courteous friendly and helpful.

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-5-2020

    It’s in a central but quite location, staff is very friendly, and they are staying true to their cleaning pledge. Not to mention my dog can stay free!

    The parking spaces are super close together :(

    8SherryPosted on: 7-25-2020

    location and very helpful staff

    Air Conditioner was broken, I had to make 3 trips to get linens, coffee, cream, etc. as COVID rules prevent housekeeping during stay. They COULD have left them in the hall, had them ready for pick up, brought them up themselves.

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 6-23-2020

    Chose it because it is pet friendly and does not charge a pet fee. Alfoft has become my go to chain when I travel with my dog. The hotel has a nice, sleek contemporary feel. Parking was free and plentiful. Nice hotel!

    Reception did not wear a mask nor was there plexiglass barrier separating us. Did not see any hand sanitizers in the lobby or hallways. In my mind this should be SOP when we are in a pandemic. I was also charged for internet even though booking said free.

    5Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 12-10-2019

    Hotel employee are PHENOMENAL team members, very kind and courteous.

     the manager is very aggressive and rude to her staff and customers. The General manager never contacted me, and the late check out that was not proper compensation for the several discrepancies during the one day visit.

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 11-19-2019

    EVERYTHING. One of the most beautiful properties I've ever stayed at. Pretty much every detail here is just pitch perfect. Free pool table downstairs is a nice touch too!

    Water in the sink and shower could've gotten a little hotter, but that's the only thing I can even remotely critique. Awesome property.
