I recently stayed at The Westin Marriott, and while my overall stay was pleasant, I encountered a deeply troubling experience that I feel compelled to share. On Saturday night, August 10th, my friends and I—four Black women—returned from a Missy Elliott concert. As it was late, we decided to eat our delivered food in the lobby, as others were doing the same. However, we were singled out by the security guard, who questioned if we were hotel guests. Even after confirming our status, he hovered over us without asking for any verification like room keys or IDs, making us extremely uncomfortable. When I addressed this with the front desk manager, WJ, he claimed the security guard was checking for homeless individuals. My best friend had luggage in the hotel, and we had ordered take-out food to a Waltham hotel—a particularly un-walkable area. His assumption that we were homeless felt dismissive and discriminatory, especially since we were dressed up for the concert. Adding to the distress, the security guard commented condescending about having children our age when I mentioned being 40. His behavior and lack of resolution were deeply disappointing. I mentioned I was 40 years old because the security guard spoke condescendingly and wouldn’t leave us alone. This unprofessional behavior and the lack of an apology or acknowledgment of our discomfort were deeply disappointing. I hope this review encourages the hotel to create a more inclusive environment.

Shower has mildew. The bathroom fan doesn't work. Room was extremely dusty that my son's allergy started to aggravated. We were willing to pay extra to book a lake view room. They gave us a room with no lake view whatsoever and kept telling us if we looked hard enough to the right we would see it. What a joke! I added pictures so the viewers can make the judgements. Bottom line - this is no where near a 2 star hotel and I would not recommend it nor coming back.
