We had am appointment at Shands UF Hospital and Aloft is 1/2 mile down the same road as the orthopedic department of their Hospital. The hotel is very modern and high tech. Our room was handicapped accessible with a roll in shower. The only part that we didn't like is the toilet is very low and was very difficult to sit on. The shower had a handheld showered wand instead of a traditional shower head so it was very easy for a disabled person sitting on the seat in the shower to use. Strangley our room didn't have a microwave but a family member staying down the hall did.
