Aloft is a lovely hotel, with great amenities for its size…a great bar, breakfast items for purchase, a pool table, outdoor area, gym, and rooftop area to enjoy the skyline. Upon arriving (at about 5:45pm) our room wasn’t ready yet so we had to wait 1/2 hour. It was the only room left with two beds. I specifically called the evening before to confirm my reservation and would have been upset if it wasn’t available! We went to the bar. The desk clerk gave us money off our first night and our drinks were on the house. That was very thoughtful! The room was nice but was an accessible room (not mentioned at the desk). The room was nice-sized but I do have to say that construction is happening right next door so at about 7am the sound of very loud banging wakes you up. It’s the location of that room; not all rooms hear that. There is also construction across the street. But that’s NYC/LIC!! Many wonderful eateries to choose from in the area. All in all, I will definitely stay there again!
