That said I have always used the Sheraton's car service and this will be my first trip to Lima not at the Sheraton so I have no idea if a taxi is more hassle than it's worth plus I really don't want to wait in line if I can avoid it.

Any advice?
Use Green Taxis from the airport. It will be maybe soles 35 or US$15.

When you exit from customs turn right and Green Taxis are directly in front of you. Never a wait and in all the years I have been using them, never a problem. Time from airport to the W at night is about 15 minutes.
