I was really hopeful about this hotel, especially given that it’s part of the Westin/Marriott family, but unfortunately we were disappointed with our stay.
First, we paid extra for a “river view,” but our view was primarily of the apartment building directly across the street. You could faintly see the river in the distance if you looked off to the side. We asked the front desk and were told this is considered a river view. Definitely not worth paying extra for.
Housekeeping was another major disappointment. Our room was never serviced — no fresh towels, coffee, garbage removal, nothing. When I asked, I was told housekeeping only comes if requested or every two days. This was never mentioned at check-in, and Expedia specifically states daily housekeeping. There was even a QR card in the room asking guests to tip housekeeping, which we did, yet no one came.
The hotel also felt extremely overcrowded for its small common areas. The lobby and elevators were constantly packed, often requiring us to wait for multiple elevators. Breakfast was chaotic, with guests competing for tables and food.
Overall, the experience did not live up to our expectations, and unfortunately we would not stay here again.
