Aloft Syracuse Inner Harbor

Eric Markson

Quaint and unusual room, which actually is very refreshing for a hotel. Its almost what I would call Modern..ish? They let me check in early, which was fantastic, since I had to be part of a wedding. The only thing that really irked me was that they do not have any continental breakfast, but instead charge upwards of $9 for a breakfast sandwich....The Gem diner down the road is a great breakfast spot.

A very nice Aloft location. Located between the university, downtown, and mall, it offers a short drive to any location in town but not really within walking distance. Next to a little lake, it is located it a place where you could go on little walks. The hotel is also extremely dog friendly, many pups made us wish ours came with us. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, both reception and at the bar. Rooms were a standard layout for this chain but clean and well upkept. If I had one comment that is not positive it would be that the parking lot, which is free, needs to be better signed so people know where it is. Would recommend and stay again.

The front desk was very friendly, the bar tender very sweet, and the decor seems pretty trendy. However, our room was very disappointing. Because we were Marriot members and used our points to stay, at check in she said since we are members she would give us a partial harbor view, which we gave her our thanks since this sounded like a good thing. However, one window had a very limited view of the harbor (mostly was the main road outside), while the other window had a full view of the elevator lobby. I was horrified that anyone standing in the lobby could look directly in full view of our room. So we had to keep the shades drawn the the whole time just for privacy. The bathroom did not have any towel racks for the hand towel or bath towels other than the rack above the toilet where towels are stored. (Which is in the other room from the sink.) The shower does not have any place to put toiletries such as soap or shampoo, so you're forced to put out on the floor of the little stand up shower. If we were staying more than one night we would have asked for a different room just for the privacy factor. The experience was enough that we won't be returning.

This is my second week staying here as I am in town on business. The pillows on my bed are horrible. They are very flat and needs to be thrown away. I was in a different room the first week and the pillows were fine. Each night I stayed I couldn't get a get night sleep. The walls are very thin and you can hear people's conversations outside your door. A couple of morning during my stay there was no one available to cook breakfast. If you enjoy living in a dormitory environment, this place is for you. Also you have to go downstairs to the lobby and use the microwave.
