Staff were exceptional especially at the sports bar. Stay was comfortable except no hot water in the shower on the last day, despite letting the water run. :( Having to take an ice cold shower before checking out was not a pleasant way to end my stay.

The pool area and actually most of the hotel is cold..pool water was warm and cloudy and the Hot tub was 95 degrees so not Hot. The room was fine but the bed was Hard with subpar linens..we had dinner at the very expensive steak house.. Olde Hickory. It was horrible and they even sat us in a dining room with no heat at all and said they were working on it..I sent back my Steak 3 times before losing my appetite..the next day we had the same entrees at a restaurant off the property and it was amazing. So if in the area that restaurant is a short walk and it is called The Walrus. I think if I go back to the area I will try the Westin next time.

It was nice but a bit dated & the spa services leave much to be desired. The spa manager was very nice & accommodating to the inconvenience of my massage therapist not being available for my scheduled appt, but it was still unacceptable to wait around an hr and 1/2 for her, and still had to come back hours later ase she wasn’t there still. Then the therapist wasn’t that great.

Currently on our second day with NO HOT WATER, which has been extremely difficult especially since we have the kids here for ICE ft Polar Express. The phone only works in speaker mode. There’s is also a loud central air vent right by out bed that must have something in it making it rattle constantly. For what we’ve paid, we at least expected the basics to be in order. Definitely made our holiday vacation memorable but not in ways we expected.
