OMG, I was also wondering about the Westin in Wilmington!

funny

That’s in Delaware, right?

It’s consultant PTSD!

Though great small hotel. I’ve run into consultants there that I hadn’t seen in years. Gets tons of business.

So much better than the Sheraton Suites downtown.

It was a couple blocks from my client so I stayed there often. Though I regularly had to move rooms, one night it took four moves to find a room that wasn’t dirty or have something big like the AC broken.

There is a Sheraton too. I stayed there once and got sick there.

like

Yeah, the only way I survived the Sheraton is making great friends with the bartender. He would always personally make sure my dinner was prepared right.

One of my favorite hotels!

Stayed there for a year. decent hotel but agree-kind of gross...had to switch rooms 3x one night because every room had dirty underwear.
