Pictures are misleading. The rooms are extremely dated and suites awkwardly situated. The first room we were assigned as an upgrade had an extreme, overpowering perfume smell. We requested a new room, which was accommodated. It was no longer an upgrade, but the standard room was much nicer, newer carpet, etc, with only a slight perfume smell.… Read more

We requested a new room, which was accommodated. It was no longer an upgrade, but the standard room was much nicer, newer carpet, etc, with only a slight perfume smell. There is an airport shuttle that runs without need to request. We had to wait about 45 minutes, as the first shuttle drove by without stopping (as we tried to waive down- pretty sure we made eye contact). Weston and other hotels drove by 2-3 times while we waited for next shuttle. We tried calling the front desk after the first shuttle flew by and they were annoyed at our call and said there would be another shuttle. No lounge for elites. Read less

We have been here about 24 hours and, unfortunately, we are captive guests for 8 more nights as our daughter has a dance event going on in this hotel. Apart from the bell hop who helped us with luggages yesterday, every other staff we have encountered seems to be dismissive, rude, or seemed they would rather be somewhere else.

We have been here about 24 hours and, unfortunately, we are captive guests for 8 more nights as our daughter has a dance event going on in this hotel. Apart from the bell hop who helped us with luggages yesterday, every other staff we have encountered seems to be dismissive, rude, or seemed they would rather be somewhere else. Truly, I do not think they should be in the hospitality industry. We are at the tail end of our 2 week trip and this is our third hotel on this trip. The Hiltons we have stayed at in this trip has been amazing compared to this Sheraton. Housekeeping never came by the whole day after our first night and we had to call the front desk to request for towel change, amenity replacement and trash to be taken out. As I fall in line by the front desk yesterday, I observe and watched how they speak with other guest, wondering if its just me getting this treatment, but it seemed it is the work culture in this hotel. We have stayed at many other Marriott Bonvoy branded hotels which we raved about. This Sheraton though has been a horrendous experience over the past 24 hours and our family truly dread the next 8 night. Read less

I would recommend that you stay some where else. The hotel staff is very rude and dismissive of you. The shuttle bus from the airport is very slow and we watched as other hotel shuttle buses pass 3-4 times before the Sheraton shuttle arrived. I called to see where the bus was and the staff person said "it will be there soon" and then promptly… Read more
I would recommend that you stay some where else. The hotel staff is very rude and dismissive of you. The shuttle bus from the airport is very slow and we watched as other hotel shuttle buses pass 3-4 times before the Sheraton shuttle arrived. I called to see where the bus was and the staff person said "it will be there soon" and then promptly hung up. The hotel check-in was frustrating and we were told that our rooms were not ready despite it being 3:00 PM and check in was at 2:00 PM. The Manager, Rosa, was dismissive and said to wait in the lobby like everyone else. She abruptly ended the conversation and called the next guest before I could say anything else. Further, the room was is disrepair. I had lights hanging from the ceiling and the AC unite was very loud. Plus, I had black fuzz all over the sheets when I pulled the bed covers back. Fast forward to a month later, and I got a charge for $87 on my credit card for eating at the Bar. I have called three times to get an answer as to why I was charged. Each time, I am told I need to talk to accounting. Accounting has never returned my call and I am now having to dispute the credit card charge. Staying at this hotel is like a nightmare that will never end. I really want to be done with this place, but it seems to keep wanting to haunt me. Read less

We stayed 2 nights. One on the way from Boston to Hawaii and one on the back. Our first night’s stay demonstrated to us that their customer service commitment was nil. We weren’t given any info about Wi-Fi in the room. When we called, they gave us the Wi-Fi name that asked for our room # and last name. Didn’t work. Went back down to the desk, they… Read more
We stayed 2 nights. One on the way from Boston to Hawaii and one on the back. Our first night’s stay demonstrated to us that their customer service commitment was nil. We weren’t given any info about Wi-Fi in the room. When we called, they gave us the Wi-Fi name that asked for our room # and last name. Didn’t work. Went back down to the desk, they told us how to sign in using a code. Tried it in the lobby - didn’t work. Went back to the desk- the lobby has its own sign in. And for all these interactions the desk staff approach to providing information was reluctant if not dour. I believe they are probably overworked and underpaid. Other problems - only decaf in the room - coming back from Hawaii, the 24/7 shuttle from the airport never came- we waited 40 minutes at 1 in the morning. Several calls to the hotel did no good. - had a difficult time getting guaranteed late arrival, which was necessary due to the lateness of our flight Bottom line - the staff does not try to be helpful. I have to believe this is on management. Read less

I had stayed here twice, love the location and the space of the lobby (easy to wait around for flight without getting to the airport) Both time have the best sleep, really hope to know what brand their mattress is and what model. I wasn't too tire both time but always wake up feeling weightless and well rested, didn't get that experience in any… Read more
