Hotel good but their outsourced valet stunk.
The lobby/pool area was nice. The bed was super comfy, but the door to the toilet had scratches/marks...looks like from a dog and we didn't travel with a dog. I feel like rooms that allow dogs should be only that...for people who travel with them due to the damage they create. I know the valet isn't a part of the hotel but I would strong encourage you to start your own. I have a HUGE problem with PMC valet company. They charged us $44 for a nighty valet, plus tax/fees, instead of the $38 posted. When I questioned them, they said it's becuase I had an oversized vehicle...it's a Chevy Traverse...it fits in the same kind of parking spot at a large sized car. What makes it even worse is the valet person didn't even say anything about the upcharge. IF the valet service was top notch, maybe I wouldn't have an issue with the upcharge, but they were EXTREMELY slow and not personable at all. We didn't tip since the service sucked and overcharged.

No Bathroom Door!
I booked a 2-queen bed room for my family of 3 and there was no door on the bathroom and a flimsy sliding door that doesn't close all the way or lock in the area with the toilet and shower. So no privacy and not comfortable for any of us. There were several wedding after-parties in the hotel on the night we stayed and they were loud and partying until 2am. Overall, the hotel could use some updating, as it looks a little run down. Customer Service, however, was very good.

Needs improvements
This hotel lists that it has a restaurant. It does NOT. Only a cocktail bar, they offer in room dining only with takeout from a restaurant across the street but who enjoys eating a steak in a double queen room without a table & plastic cutlery. Breakfast is by order only which you pay for, breakfast sandwiches are like cheap microwave frozen sandwiches, they were awful. Pictures made it look like the pool area had a hot tub, it does not. There was plastic sheeting hanging off the ceiling in the hallways. The back of the sink in our room had black mold on the caulking around the back which had a mirror right behind it so every time you washed your hands you just starred at the big black spot behind the sink. We stayed more then 1 night, housekeeping never came in to empty the trash, put more coffee packets in the room so we didn’t have to order and pay for coffee in the mornings, or take wet bath towels or offer new ones. Most hotels have switched to coffee makers that use K Cups, we brought our own k cups with coffee & apple cider, this hotel still is using the coffee packets with the grounds in a filter pouch so that was disappointing we couldn’t even make ours after housekeeping didn’t restock the room. We usually stay at the Trade Hotel when visiting Milwaukee but chose this location because of the pool this time. We will be back in January & March but we won’t be staying at Aloft we will go back to the Trade Hotel that’s for sure.
