I frequently stay at this Aloft if I have to be in the area for business. It’s nicely decorated, staff are very helpful and friendly. I love the picturesque view from the room. It definitely is convenient and in walking distance to restaurants, colleges, District Park, etc.

Disliked: Staff & service

loud and expensive

Our 4th floor room faced the very busy street and we heard every loud radio that went by, every truck that went by and arguing on the street level. But worse of all, a friend stayed the same room/timeframe and her room was $80 a night cheaper. She booked one day later then me? Aloft or Marriott would not honor the price difference which I think is very poor customer service.

Stylish hotel in the exposed concrete idiom, comfy bed, some furnishings are a little cheesy and space saving, ie small bench seating with wheelie table instead of table and chairs and couch or easy chair — basically you’ll end up sitting on the bed. Lots of light from big windows with good light blocking blinds. Bathrooms generous but open to rest of room, except for toilet closet, which I guess could be an issue noise wise. The rooftop bar was closed on Sunday nights when I visited, disappointing, other food choices very limited, but that’s RI in Feb for you. Overall good, nice staff, would recommend
