Great Staff, Awful Infrastructure

While the service was great, the actual room itself left a tremendous amount to be desired. Upon arrival to our room, the electric lock on the door was malfunctioning and took at least 5 minutes to enter/exit the room each time. We noticed most of the doors looked "broken into" and saw multiple rooms with an engineer working on the locks. Inside of the room, the ironing board was broken and kept falling over, the tub seemed partially clogged and any shower over 2 minutes meant standing in 2 inches of water, and the toilet seemed to continuously clog and/or run all night. It was a very disappointing experience, in which we were always anxious walking back into the room not knowing what was going to break next...

I booked a room for a staycation for my husband’s birthday. Upon arrival, we were informed by the check in staff that the room wasn’t available but they can book us for a double bed suite. We agreed but I wasn’t notified that it would a significant up charge. The “suite” was extremely out dated and used. We found multiple evidence in the room that confirmed it wasn’t recently cleaned. The tub was dirty and a used bar soap was in the shower. In the lounge area of the suite there was an open trail mix wrapper on the table. The tv glitched the entire night and we were unable to watch any media. Our staycation turned into a nightmare. I would never recommend the Westin to anyone and we will never come back. We stayed the night but as soon as we woke up (early morning) we checked out and went home to enjoy a nice shower and our bed.
