I visited this hotel for a few days and I really enjoyed my time there. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The room as so great and housekeeping was speedy when turning my room over. I went to the pool for maybe 40 minutes came back and the room was a ready with new towels and linens. I don't know much about Scottsdale but the Aloft seemed to be in a great location at least for the things I wanted to do and see (night life and shopping). The pool is open late which I really enjoyed. I will be staying at Aloft next time I am in Scottsdale and will be checking out other locations.
