"it would rate 7-8 , I like the concept of A Loft but people need to be able to reach the front desk if needed"

8.0

The property is fine , the staff is fine, you just need more specials on the prices.

There was no Iron & the room had evidence of the previous occupants, there were visible stains on the 2 blue velvet pillows on the seats of the seating table

We stayed her for an OSU football game. It is about a half hour walk to the stadium. The staff was wonderful. The room was spartan and a bit beat up but clean. I know the ridiculous price was based on location and not amenities. It has a parking lot and they allowed me to park 2 cars which was great on a game day. The on site bar was hopping and had a great vibe.

Noisiest hotel stay I've experienced in years. Requested top floor when I booked in June for an October stay. Not available at check-in, and no reason why. We were assigned room 231, next to the stairwell. The doors are heavy with strong closers, so every time someone enters/leaves a room, the sound wakes you up. Then the guests in room 331 checked in between midnight and 1am and proceeded to drag their bags up the stairwell (banging on each step). After that they just stomped around the room and flushed their turbo toilet repeatedly (another loud noise source). And with no carpeting and a distinct lack of soundproofing, you could hear every time an item is dropped. If you are looking for a quiet night's sleep don't stay at Aloft. I certainly won't.

"Great hotel close to campus!"

9.0

This hotel is centrally located and close to campus. The room was large and spacious.

When you arrive it’s not super clear that check in is on the second floor.
