Good if you are looking for a low priced hotel that is clean. But, if you are looking for a nicer hotel with a full restaurant and coffee shop, pay the extra and go for Hilton or Hotel Indigo. That is what we will do next time. Pros: • Polite Staff • Clean Rooms • Comfortable Beds Cons: • Small Rooms • Low Shower Pressure • Limited Menu at Deli • Limited Coffee Options (black coffee with cream) • Minimal Late Checkout Offered (30 minutes granted) • Only 2 Luggage Carts • Small Pool • Inconvenient location

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was well kept and staff was attentive and courteous. The only one thing and I realize they are trying to revitalize that area is that it didnt seem too safe for those places that were with in walking distance. Other than that one draw back all the things we were interested in were no more than a 10 minute drive from the hotel.
Visit to the Dr. Pepper museum.

Our stay at Aloft Waco was okay overall. The best part was definitely the location—everything we wanted to do was just a short 4–5 minute drive away, and there were plenty of restaurants and places to check out nearby. The hotel has a modern look, and the room was fine for a short stay. Nothing fancy, but it got the job done. If you're looking for a convenient spot close to Waco attractions, it's a solid option.
