    Coffee in room
    Tony N.

    Nice stay in a good location. I arrived on a busy weekend at 7:00PM. Apparently many concerts were going on so the hotel was pretty booked! It's a good thing that I was able to book days in advance. The check-in process was very easy and got my room on the 2nd level king-sized bed. This Aloft I would say is bigger compared to the other Aloft(s) around the area. My room seemed to have been an ADA room since the bathroom was pretty big and wheelchair/accessible friendly. Not sure if this was how all the rooms are but it did make showering a bit messier than I hoped. It has the typical bar, restaurant, and lounge area. Lots of room to hang around and relax with others. If my room wasn't connecting to another on top of the ADA shower I would have enjoyed my stay much better. Plus side is free parking just like all the other Aloft hotels in the area. Still a great stay nonetheless especially for price.

    Front desk: Friendly staff and attentive to guests when they have questions or need something. The lobby has a clean modern vibe and is a nice hangout spot with lots of seating and a game area, including a pool table. Bar: The bartender here is amazing! Definitely knows his stuff and was easily able to create a delicious mocktail. I'd come back just for the drinks!!

    Marriott why? I had to go to work for an event. I think we all know how awful traffic is around these parts so I had to spend the night in a hotel. Check in was whatever. It wasn't professional or polite yet it wasn't blatantly rude, it was whatever. The room itself was ...so the bathroom was nice if you ignored the rust colored stains on the fabric wallpaper. Don't mind the mold in the shower. Pretend you don't see the leaky stain on the ceiling. Definitely don't pay attention to the door with a gap away from the ground that is so high you can feel the breeze on your feet and hear everything in the hallway. The towels are thin, hard - and not enough for the 2 people I paid for (me and my husband). I called the front desk about the shower cap covering the smoke detector and was told I could either get ona chair and remove it or she'll send someone with a ladder to. Like I said not polite or professional but not blatantly rude. I didn't think that was the appropriate response so I just said bye and hung up. I swear I am working on speaking up when people are like that. Anyway - all of that plus the plastic laminate floor that looks like wood but it isn't was pretty much oh no wait- the bed was bad and the pillows were thin. This is the problem working in Silicon Valley. The rare times I go on campus I stay in a hotel to avoid traffic so I can be fresh for work the next morning, The stay wasn't cheap but the experience was.

    Outside seating w/fire ... sooo pretty.

    This is a very clean property. Rooms are excellent. Beds are very comfortable as well as pillows. The wall decor is weird with the string lights tho.. looks like it was an afterthought of lights they got at IKEA and threw on wall above beds. the outlet situation was weird for charging anything. Drybar products in room which was nice. At least they smelled good. I would recommend becoming a member to enjoy the welcome water and treat! my BIGGEST complaint is the EV charging. we stayed 4 nights and I didn't get to use it once overnite for a full charge. It's RIDICULOUS they only have 2 chargers for guests. And they aren't fast. each nite had to park way in the back. My suggestion is to move chargers near pool and have a minimum of 4-6 with your guests. This is a busy hotel and lots of EV's in this area. Bar had a nice selection and our bartender was awesome! not a lot of vegetarian options if your hungry:( which also surprised me being in this area.

    Highly mediocre place. The room is fine. The bathroom is pretty gross when you look close enough. And the cheese burger at the bar is disgusting (ordered it medium with no onions. It came burnt with no cheese and a bunch of onions. Whatever, what can you really expect I guess). Oh. And there was no milk or cream for the coffee served in the morning. Wouldn't be back voluntarily but if I had to come back it's certainly not the worst.

    Long way to drive from Nevada to Oregon then to the bay, Aloft has been a very easy and this area seems to be cheaper maybe because of location. You can miss this spot easily if you so not drive slowly so becareful the entry is not that wide. The amenities they have a pool in front for guess only and breakfast for all guess. As of this time 08-01-2021 let the front desk know if you want to clean your room because they cannot accommodate daily cleaning due to staffing (covid-19). Staffing are very nice and helpful including the housekeeping. Thank you for all your work and everyone else in this Facility.

    Friendly staff. Several of them greeted us with smiles when we were in and out the hotel, very nice and welcoming. The room was clean and simple. The outlet was not working in bathroom but I was able to plug in the hair dryer from the outlet near one of the night stands. The room was fairly quiet though I could hear neighbor taking shower. Breakfast buffet was basic. Our room rate included the buffet otherwise it's not worth the 24.99 + fees. Better get something from downtown MV. 2 charging stations worked well. Luckily we were able to plug in both days. Good central location. Will stay here again when the rate is reasonable:)

    See all

My six-year-old and I spent the weekend there celebrating my birthday. Upon check-in, I discovered that they had upgraded our room to the King corner suite which was a fabulous surprise because the room was exquisite. Very large accommodations. Modern but cozy. We had a lovely sitting room that had lots of light with floor to ceiling windows and the bedroom looked out onto the entrance of the hotel. I booked our stay directly through the hotels website because they offer special packages and pricing. So I went with the luxury package which included two splits of sparkling wine. A nice way to start our stay. I also booked a massage which was easy to add on during the booking process. I opted for a 60 minute Swedish massage and it was exquisite. The bathroom in our accommodations was perfect. The bathtub was situated next to a lovely shower. So my daughter was able to take a little bubble bath while I showered. The hotel seems to be very secure, considering the lobby doors close at about 9 PM I believe. And the only way to access any of the floors via the elevator requires you to use your room key on a scanner pad before you are able to press any of the floors. It definitely gives a sense of security and safety. The pool is quaint, but perfect for a dip and some tanning. In order to place orders with the bar for drinks and food, there are menus where you scan a QR code. I did find it a bit of an issue so I opted to just walk up to the bar to place my orders. The luxury package I booked also included a late checkout for our day of departure. Usual checkout time is 11 AM but the late checkout is at 2 PM which is very nice. However, I unfortunately, had to go to the front desk to have our room keys adjusted to reflect our late departure time. Our room keys were first disabled at noon and then again at 1:30 PM. This was a bit of an inconvenience to be honest. If our stay included a late checkout at 2 PM, our keys should have worked without needing to be re-scanned twice. My only gripe about our stay is their restaurant, Roger. Our first meal there was Friday night when we checked in and it was definitely our last. The restaurant is vast, but luckily it wasn't busy. However, that did not help with the level of service we received. Once our order was taken, we never saw our server again. I assume she clocked out. But unfortunately, our table was not transferred to another server. So after my first glass of Prosecco, I was never offered another drink, and neither was my daughter. Once our food came out from the kitchen, and I noticed that nobody was tending to our table, I had to get up and go to the stand to ask for dessert menus. Besides the terrible service, the food was nothing to write home about. It was actually surprising how un-appetizing it was. Including the dessert, which should've been easy, considering it was just a brownie baked on a chocolate chip cookie. But it was hard like it had been refrigerated because it had been cooked and then stored. Since the server our table had been transferred to was not coming back, I just got up to leave. And I was going to let the people at the stand know our room to charge our meal. Absolutely atrocious. However, when the manager at the check-in desk asked how my stay was and I mentioned the terrible service we had, I noticed that our Friday night meal was completely taken off of our bill. Which I did not expect, but extremely appreciated. A very nice gesture. After our experience at the restaurant, I understood why I was seeing DoorDash drivers show up with meals for guests at the hotel. All in all, I will most definitely be staying at this hotel again. I just won't be frequenting their on-site restaurant.
