The first room we were given was on the 11th floor in the “East Wing” – which appeared to me to perhaps be a wing of the hotel that was the last to receive renovation treatment, and was also the side of the hotel which faces away from a view of the strip. We soon learned to spot and avoid them for the duration of our trip, but I will say that once you waved them off they didn’t continue to pursue you – so a minor annoyance, no biggie. To begin, hotel parking was free, and check in was fast and easy – although we were approached almost immediately upon walking through the doors by time share sellers asking if we’d “received our free hotel gifts” yet. We were attracted by the relatively low costs in relation to some of the flashier and bigger hotels on the strip (not that the Westgate isn’t big – it’s just smaller in relation to the behemoths such as Caesar’s and the Bellagio, etc.) The resort fees were also minimal in comparison, and most of the reviews were positive, so we went for it.
We booked this room almost a year in advance as we were invited to a destination wedding in Vegas over the 2019 Easter weekend.
