Can't find any other info on this but with this and the Marriott/JW (potentially), can't wait for some official news and opening dates.
In the hotel industry, wouldn't it be a move down for a Westin GM to go to a Courtyard? Or is involvement with a new hotel and its opening a good credential for the resume?
