I spent a week at the Westin with some friends, and we left so pleased with our hotel choice.

Nice hotel, Limited Facilities - user review
I stayed for one night last weekend. Hotel service and hotel room were fine. The hotel has a great downtown location, which we really liked. We used their SPA, which I'm surprised they advertise. The SPA is an after thought at this hotel and wouldn't recommended it if that is important to you. We le...

My recent Memorial Day weekend trip to San Diego found me at this particular Westin Hotel. Let me dive into my experience...

Room was nice, bed was great. Very nice pool. Good staff and great location. Will go back. Only problem was that the room stank of cigarette smoke, thanks to the last guest that stayed there (jerk!).

Decent hotel not the best value - user review
This hotel was very nice in the style of Westin hotels. However, the walls were very thin and every time someone flushed a toilet in the nearby rooms the flushing sound could be heard.

I have seen the Westin TV commercials and mag. Ads, the color pallet, the textures, the overall vibe or experience is carried over into the hotel itself.
