WSJ horrible sofas

I tried to find out who purchased the sofas for the last renovation, so I could recommend they be fired. The sofas are an embarrassment to ask anyone to sleep on them.

Hi
I am new to Westin. Can someone share the number they use for banking staroptions. Or do you have a customer rep that is more helpful than others.

I appreciate your help.

Cyn

You just call the regular customer service number. When you call, you generally cannot request a specific person, but whoever you get should be able to do a simple task like banking Staroptions.

Please note that the deadline is the end of June, and unless you are an Elite Owner, the fee is $99, regardless of the number of Staroptions.

And the sofa fabric is uncomfortable to sit upon (but probably better for wear&tear) - we use a bed sheet to cover the sofa.

I wonder how long it will last?

They could stand to lose a rack in there and just replace it with long hooks on the walls to hang the chairs.

Agree with the hooks, that's we have in our pool floats storage area at home and it works great.

Do people take them out for the week? It probably varies a lot.

Absent the hooks, the folding chairs would be better stacked under the wooden bench/shelf at the back. While I applaud the work of David, it won't take much for those chairs to end up falling and being spewed all over the floor again.

ahem - while it is somewhat AC'd - I would have to take everything outside (96F w humidity ) to get thru the various rafts etc. to rearrange. there was zero floor space inside - people were just throwing stuff in there.

Also found door cracked twice - be good to have sign to remind people to close the friggin door (!)
