I've stayed in hotels all over the world and for the last 5 years normally stay in Hyatt's, Starwood's and Hilton's. As I know what to expect and exactly what I am going to get.
The Westgate was my bosses idea, due to it being a little cheaper than my suite at the Sheraton; which I was very comfortable in. The Westgate has a pretty decent lobby; seems quite inviting, though getting into the rooms is a big letdown. They were generally tired with stains on some carpets and seats; the pillows had definitely seen better days. The gym though small had most exercise equipment. No pull, and occasionally I had too remind staff that I had called for room service, etc. Free internet which is excellant (saves $15 a day or so) Staff in general were pretty helpful, though not all that engaging except in the bar and front desk. Basically its no match to the hotels I normally frequent on long business stays.
Lastly the additional fee's & taxes stink !!! After 23 days of staying at the Westgate, I will probably not stay there again as San Diego has a lot of hotels in equally decent locations.
