Mixed bag, the bf loved it, I thought it was just ok
We stayed here last night. The city itself was going into lockdown mode considering the Democratic National Convention is going to happen this week.
It costs $25 to take a cab from the airport which is reasonable. We pulled in and the garage attendants were very attentive to help us out of the cab and assist us with our luggage and give us directions where to go. I have to say they were some of the best parking attendants I have ever met.
The front desk check-in was simple, Derek was helpful and informative. 
The room overall was decent, but IMHO it had a lot of small issues.
1) The bathroom is super small for a hotel of this stature. The toilet is right up against the shower/tub. The bathroom was clean and had updates, and plenty of towels.
2) I found the bed to be too hard and uncomfortable. My boyfriend slept like a log, but I woke up at 4:30 and tossed and turned, re-fluffing the soft pillows and so forth.
3) There are not enough outlets in the room. I wanted to plug in our cell phones to charge. The outlets that were on the desk were both broken. There are no open outlets around the edge of the wall by the bed. So we ended up using the bathroom outlets (not easy when you need to dry your hair, warm up your flat iron).
4) There is a coffee pot in the room, it is on a sliding track inside of the tv stand. But it is not plugged in. So we had to put the coffee pot in the bathroom and then carry it back to its holder in the main room when we were done. It was kinda funny as I'm blow drying my hair and trying to avoid this coffee pot. But not practical.
5) The tv....the remote is some old school thing that makes a click sound every time you push the buttons. Literally sounding like "a clicker." I was watching Friends last night and all of a sudden, after the tv had been on for about an hour, Friends disappeared and the menu guide that looked like Pay-Per-View popped up. I thought I had done something wrong until this morning when after having CNN on for a while, the same thing happened. You couldn't see what channel you were on anymore, even if it was typed in, and it would go to this On Demand looking screen that was difficult to get out of.
6) You cannot check out on the tv. It is 2012, let's get on the ball here.
7) There is no mini fridge in the room, so the leftover food we brought back with us last night ended up going into the trash (there is a mini bar, but I won't touch those things!! $$$)
The good stuff: 
1)The view was awesome, the staff was great, my boyfriend was given a free Starbucks this morning since the store was closed (they had something set up). 
2) The location is terrific, just walk across the street in either direction to get to the key spots. We found a local who gave us great advice as to where to eat. We wanted some Southern bbq food, and ended up at Mac's Speed Shop on South Blvd. Food was great, atmosphere was great, and the prices were terrific. The people who told us to go there said it was "an upscale biker bar" which is a combination of words I never thought I would hear put together, but they were right. No need to wear anything dressier than jeans or shorts.
3) If you need a taxi, it is right there for you in the parking deck. Make sure you get a price from the driver before you head out.
4) Front desk was helpful and told us to leave about 30 min earlier for the airport as many roads were going to be closed today (for the DNC). We were glad they suggested that.
A lot of people on this site complained about the noisy air conditioner. While I have to agree it was loud (when you were on the wall with the bathroom), I prefer to fall asleep to that humming sound than to total silence, so I have no complaints there.
So the conclusion is, my boyfriend found no faults in the place, he absolutely loved it, and would stay here again. I liked it, not loved it, and was just annoyed by the bed and lack of outlets. The staff always said hello and gave you that real feeling of Southern hospitality. I would stay here again only if they upgraded the beds to pillow topper beds (the Westin beds are amazing).
