For us this was a flawless stay! From the curbside valet parking to the incredible front desk staff, all were eager to help and making the effort for things to go seamlessly. Our room was a very large executive king suite. It was spacious with a separate bedroom and bath area, and was exceptionally clean. We are well traveled, and this was a fantastic room! The property itself is stunning and steeped in history. We will be back again, the next time we’re in the area. Thank everyone for making this a great stay!

We got the tiniest room with a queen bed, did not get upgraded even though we have status and our friends who have no status got bigger and larger rooms. The AC barely works, the bathroom is so tiny you can brush your teeth while sitting on the toilet. Terrible coffee in the room. Just overall the rooms felt so dated, old, grungy. Really disappointed for a Westin property

Price was more than double a traditional stay ($480+) for 1 night, internet did not work which meant I couldnt watch the shows on the streaming channels, and the regular shows were uninteresting, the phone inside the room did not work which meant i had to call the front office via my personal phone for the internet issue that when the maintenance man came is how i found out about the no internet, the staff isnt communicating with eachother so that the guests are informed. Had to pay to park to stay at a place i paid to stay at ($35 a night for parking). I found out there was a wedding event only after i arrived with a non refundable reservation. Definetely will not stay at these hotels in the future and will instead downgrade hotel expectations to avoid.

Kindness from all personnel was great

When I was approaching S. High St from the parking lot, I tripped on the uneven sidewalk and experienced a fall. I was bleeding from my hand and face. The Valet on duty quickly came to my aid, provided ointment and bandaids. He was very helpful and concerned. The valets were also helpful when someone came to pick us up; allowed us to park for 10 minutes at the curb and watched our car.
