The lobby is gorgeous, restaurants were so good, the staff were decently nice. BUT the rooms are small, no one came to clean our room or restock towels. The floors were gross and we really needed them swept or vacuumed. The doors are SO thin, could hear CLEARLY other guests conversations while walking to their room all hours of the nights. The beds are not that comfortable.

The staff was excellent at check in, and even overall the entire stay.. HOWEVER... cleanliness..? No. The floors were gross at check (hotel room), not vacuumed or mopped. The tables in the room also had crumbs all over it. The bed was comfortable.. and the location was close walking distance. Other then that... it's okay.

The room service in the hotel was terrible. The food was like take out and not very good. The free included breakfast was cold when we received it and also not very good. It’s not what we expect when we stay at a Westin. The best thing about the hotel was the bed, which is always a guarantee when you stay at a Westin. Overall we were disappointed.

Cherry Blossom race stayover made great!

The hotel lobby smelled amazing! Checked in with George and he was great with giving me information on the amenities that can with my reservation along with recommendations on restaurants in the area. My room was very clean, smelled just as amazing as the lobby, bed was very comfortable and the products in the bathroom were very nice. When checking out Kamila was very nice and also gave great suggestions for places to have brunch. I will definitely stay there again! I wished my stay was longer.

The Hotel is located in a very nice area with a lot of good restaurants and Shops around. It is walkable to go to the White House and others parks and attractions. The issue with the room bill was they charge me for parking services 48.00 $ per day and I didn’t use because I didn’t bring any car and they didn’t even asked about, just passed the charge.

Sadly I was not happy with my stay at the Westin. We paid a premium for the room and while I understand it was busy in DC with the Cherry Blossoms and Spring Break, the experience was below par. We had to wait every single time for breakfast or dinner and I don’t think they were equipped or staffed to deal with the large number of guests. All the staff were great,

Average place

The toilet did not work properly so I had to call engineering soon after I checked in at 10:30 PM. The guy fixed the temporarily but I spent the next 36 hours having a lift a tank can do the same thing he did to get the toilet to fill. This is not good. Additionally, the light above the bed frame, which was the main light for the room was working like a strobe light instead of being continuously on, and did not shut off until I had to unplug it from the wall. I told the front desk about this in the morning and they said they would move me that afternoon, but no one ever called to move me. So I ended up staying in that room. Service and attentiveness to detail are missing.
