Good for business travelers. Not good for the party-seeker/foodie/gambler. Here's my take on the Westin Casuarina.
The good:
+ Clean, nicely furnished rooms with comfy beds.
+ Double sink bathroom.
+ Starbucks cafe in-house.
+ Complimentary drinks and small bites at happy hour in the restaurant lounge.
The bad:
- No fan ventilation in the bathroom!
- Small casino. They might as well not have one at all.
- Small pool.
- Lousy doormen with the worst skills at hailing cabs. My group waited about a half an hour for a taxi...in Vegas. I should have walked to Bally's across the street. I bet they had a whole line of taxis. While waiting in frustration for taxis, the doormen also tried to convince us to take limos. We even agreed to it, but the limos never came!
Overall, it was just okay. I was expecting more because I was in Vegas, home of gigantic hotels, prime dining options, and limitless entertainment. In the end, the Westin provided great accommodations for sleeping, but that's about it.
