Rooms and hotel were a little dated and old versus other Westin locations. Electricals in the room were extremely loud which led to having to sleep without air con and having to remove mini fridge plug. However, Ben on front desk is great and Bar Cicchetti food and service very good.

Liked: Cleanliness
I have stayed before and it is certainly adequate. It is located ~ 1.5 miles from convention center and surrounding businesses. The staff are not overly helpful but certainly pleasant. Because it is not centrally located, dining options are limited. Bus lines are convenient if you do not have luggage. Lobby music drifted into room but quiet over all.

The hotel was beautiful, vintage, and comfortable. Would have given it 4 stars across the board, except none of the ice machines on any floor were working. When I called down, the front desk clerk made no offer to help me get some ice, but referred me to the restaurant to ask for help.

Great service
We had an issue with the a/c. They responded immediately and sent an engineer to the room within a few minutes. He was unable to resolve the issue within 5m, so they moved us and upgraded our room. Unnecessary, but still appreciated. And we really appreciated the expediency.

The photos on Expedia are not accurate to the room you’re booking. Photos for much larger rooms were included in the option I chose. Check the Westin website for more accurate photos. Also, facilities are clean and functional, but dated and not in a rustic or charming way.

I have found with my travels since "Covid"..hotels are run down. I understand why. This particular hotel needs TLC. Carpets are old and stained. I think this hotel may be short handed and possible newer staff. Front desk was always very helpful.
