Hotel Aloft Oklahoma City Downtown – Bricktown (Oklahoma City, USA)

The entire property is modern and inspiring. So, too are the guest rooms. Very spacious and sparkling clean; including the pristine bathroom.

Members of staff on the front desk couldn't be more welcoming or helpful; supplying you with information and cab transport at the drop of a hat.

A huge bonus is the walking distance to many main attractions and entertainment venues. The whole concept, with lots of plastic and laminate is designed to attract younger guests up to around the age of 30. All age-groups, though, will respond to the facilities offered in this vibrant and very different type of hotel.

This ‘party' theme hotel attracts many groups of young party animals ... but they give no thought to the need for sound insulation. Consequently rooms are very noisy. There is also considerable additional noise from outside due to lack of insulation features on the windows. They say that rooms on higher floors are quieter.

With lots of youngsters swarming around, clamoring to check in ... and staff members getting into increasingly deep water; the result is chaotic. Don't bother with the DIY breakfast; not worth the hassle. The key free entry system can break down. This leads to more frenzy.

Why, in this trendy hotel ... is there no food of any consequence available and room service doesn't feature at all. They don't even supply toiletries in the bathroom area. Even a modest backwater hotel does this! Disappointing.
