Everything was great except the bar. They give you complementary drinks but can’t handle the crowd. On the last night, we sat in the bar area for 40 minutes and no one even came to say hello.

I loved the staff at the hotel, especially Meda who checked me in. So polite and helpful. The atmosphere was bright, modern & clean. Comfy beds. My only complaints: low water pressure in the sink & ONLY super HOT water halfway thru my shower, and I didn't like paying for internet.

I enjoyed my stay at the Westin, but there was a strong, unpleasant odor coming from the vent in my room. I notified the receptionist, and when I asked if they could adjust the fees due to the issue, the young lady smiled and simply said, 'No,' which I found quite rude. The smell was so bad that it kept me from sleeping. I also asked if anyone else had complained about the odor, and she confirmed that others had noticed it too.

Never in my life have I been so decimated by bug bites. I went to bed around midnight and woke up two hours later with bites all over my arms, legs and chest. The hotel transferred me to another room in the middle of the night (around 3 am). Later they said they'd do an inspection. They concluded that there were no signs of bug bites and offended no compensation. However, visits to multiple doctors and dermatologist have other opinions. I was in pain for about a week before taking various steroids and medicines. Now I am dealing with body scars from the bite attacks.
