Negative Reviews
negative:
Things are expensive here
With charges for parking and breakfast not included in the room rate, some guests feel that the additions that they needed while staying at this hotel were expensive and that they did not receive value for money. Particular gripes over costs focus on the service and gratuity fees that are applied to food purchases, for example.
negative:
Pool opening hours are inconvenient
A small number of guests were frustrated when they found that the pool was closed when they wanted to use it.
negative:
Bathrooms are looking a little tired
A small number of guests comment that the bathrooms at The Westin Arlington Gateway are showing signs of age and that just a small amount of work to fix missing screws or remove mold from grouting would make a great deal of difference.
