text: This place has a great location the rooms are decent and it is cheap But there is a reason why the Westin has some terrible reviewsnnIf you are looking for an economical stay buyer beware they advertise that there is free internet but there is a mandatory night charge for highspeed internet nnNow a reviewnn Location While Westin is not on the strip it was only a short minute walk to the Flamingo Fantastic location and on the middle of the strip toonn Amenities BE AWARE This hotel charges night for amenities and made no effort to tell us what they were happy hour in the lobby for example Considering we were there for nights the extra for amenities which we were not informed of was pure robbery The only perk I did appreciate was that they gave us complimentary water if you can call that a perknn Rooms The rooms are solid clean but seem pretty old I have stayed at over hotels on the strip and these are by far one of the most basic rooms i have stayed at Oh yeah the shower is not hot Nothing wrong with that but for the price point you could really do betternn Starwood Upgrades We were here with a few starwood preferred guest members who stay at this Westin Las Vegas every year When they choose the upgrade option they have NEVER gotten the upgrade so Starwood Members beware I was told that there were very few suites in the hotel so it is next to impossible to get an upgrade at this hotelnn Entertainment There is a small casino with a few tables and a mediocre restaurant Not bad but we had to go elsewhere for all our entertainment nnOther complaintsn Both of our keycard deactivated on New Years eve Imagine having to drunk stumble back to the front desk to get it reactivated The service desk was apologetic so points to themn There was NO HOT WATER in the shower on our first day We had just flown in and had a dinner reservation at Joel Robuchon and needed a shower before this special occasion so I was pretty upset when the water was cold When I called front desk about this they were very unhelpful nnOverall I would not recommend this place to anyone there is just too much wrong with it I hate giving bad reviews but avoid this place if you can
