The Denver Westin is adjacent to the terminal whereas the nearest other hotels, at least last time I stayed there, are a 15 minute ride, after schlepping your bags to a shuttle stop, waiting, then schlepping your bags into the property, then back again the next day. I've stayed there after a ski vacation, for a flight the next morning, at least three times, all on points.
I've redeemed at five of them, and stayed at three others, but also have stays in lower-end properties near several of them. When I travel, hotels are for sleeping, after getting out early and returning late after exploring wherever we are traveling. No need to waste points on fancy facilities as long as the bed is good and the room is quiet, IMO.
