You're hip, you're fun, you like your iPod and you like to feel at home even when you're not. If that's you, Aloft hotels may be just the ticket. Starwood's newest brand opened its second Aloft hotel, this one in Rancho Cucamonga, off Interstate 10 at Haven Avenue, about three miles from Ontario International Airport.

The first opened earlier this month in Montreal. More are expected later this year, including hotels in Chicago, Minneapolis, Beijing and Rogers, Ark. Rates start at about $139 (with taxes, $152) for a room, which measures about 315 square feet, with a king bed (that's the Montreal property pictured above, but Rancho is its duplicate). Visitors get a 42-inch flat-screen TV and high-speed Internet access. The hotel's lobby is designed to be a gathering place and includes the w xyz bar. Info: (909) 484-2018, www.alofthotels.com. Address: 10480 4th St., Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730.

Where am I?

Should we take offense, order a drink, or what? That depends, of course, on where you think these words turned up.
