Stay Report - 6/11 to 6/12

Location: The hotel is located on the corner of Juneau and MLK in what's known as the Deer District. It's a block from the arena the Bucks play at and a bunch of other restaurants and bars. It's about a 12 minute ride to MKE and my Ubers cost me about $25 each way.



Hotel: The hotel is a pretty standard Aloft though it's on a small piece of real estate. Parking is $39 a night, valet only, but you can find cheaper lots around. There's a 24 hour fitness center, bar that's open until midnight, a small pool and the typical nice Aloft lobby with games and the well stocked pantry area.





Check In: The agent who checked me in was very friendly and thanked me for being Titanium, told me I was upgraded to a river view room and offered me points or breakfast vouchers

Room: Typical for an Aloft. Pretty small with everything open. On the plus sides there was a large, comfortable bed with outlets next to it and a desk. The shower took a while to get hot and there was an odd mix of toiletries. The design of these rooms does little for me, the lack of bathroom door, lack of privacy etc.







While I may not be a big fan of the Aloft brand in general, the location was great and the service was great so I'd happily come back.
