Too bad we didn’t get to enjoy the pool since someone had an accident (poop) in the pool. We appreciate the Westin accommodating us by letting us use the pool at the Sheraton and Mar Brisa. I loved the restaurant! Great food and drinks but not kid friendly. Our basic room was roomy and very comfortable.

Property is nice but rooms seem a little dated . Short walk to Lego Land . Biggest issues were rust stain in shower, elevator seems like it will break soon . Walls are so thin the neighbors liked to have full conversations in the hall at 1030 at night while sleeping . Was expecting a bigger room and nicer accommodations for the price per night they charge . Staff was great and so was the breakfast .

Unfortunately a disappointing experience at this Westin property- yellowjackets (dead) accumulated around the spa, as well as used bandaids carelessly left by staff for 2 days. In a post-Covid world, it was disgusting and unacceptable for a Westin property. Shoutout to the excellent housekeeping staff and gold-standard morning barista!
