We were only checked in for an hour and went to the bar with six family members for a celebratory beverage when my purse was stolen from the back on my chair. The Westin had it on camera and could view the thief casing the bar sitting area and walking out with my purse… the follow up from then forward was poor. The follow up with the police and the video was minimal. They did not file or take any action to follow up. The bartender , valet and other staff members were not made aware of the incident until I made them aware. There was no compensation or follow up with me. Immediately my debt and credit card were used at a nearby CVS. So my weekend at the Westin was then a weekend with my bank card and credit card frozen and no access to a phone due to theft. Very disappointed

The first room we received after check in was not properly cleaned, and when we requested another room, the concierge stated that the cleaning team had been marking rooms as clean all day with some not actually cleaned. So obviously, this is a repeat issue. And when we saw the cleaning crew in the hallway, after switching rooms, they were in the same spot chatting though a half hour had passed. Overall quiet hotel, but will not return since I cannot trust the cleanliness.

The hotel has a great location and offers good dining options. The room was clean and tidy, but unfortunately, the bed sheets had a musty smell. I requested a change from room service while I believe they did replace them, the smell lingered. Additionally, the in-room phone wasn’t working. I informed the front desk, but it was never fixed, so I had to use my cellphone to contact them.

The property offered beautiful views of National Harbor and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, and I enjoyed a relaxing escape. The only downside was the parking situation. Valet service was available, but it was quite pricey. Thankfully, there was a nearby parking garage just a short walk away. Its daily rate was less than half the daily valet price.

The water pipes were being worked on and my shower and tub water was a brownish color. There was a guest who refused to leave the property below my floor which made me feel unsafe. I did not have an ice bucket when checked in, and there was a guest across the hall loud and banging on doors, people walking by the property during a late hour yelling and making noise I did not get much sleep because of the noise.
