The Le Meridien was quite a good experience, and it makes sense as it is a lot cheaper than the Westin next door. Here are my impressions and photos:

Note: There is work being done during the day. I could hear this on Monday - unclear what work is being done.

Pros:
  • Upgraded to an Oriental Suite (full suite) Non-Smoking
  • Living room couch and chairs are comfortable and large
  • Bed is comfortable - medium mattress, plush covers, plush pillows
  • Shower pressure from the rainfall head is good
  • Staff was very friendly
  • Offered 4 PM late checkout
  • Evening lounge dessert offering was tasty
  • Breakfast offered either in lounge or restaurant without welcome gift choice - enjoyed the restaurant breakfast - good omelet, good manakish, great French toast, machine coffees but not bad

Neutral:
  • WiFi was generally fine but did drop a couple of times

Cons:
  • Exterior windows were very dirty
  • Some of the outlets were very hard to plug things into, making them not usable as I don’t want to break my plugs

I would come back.
