Почему людям нравится

- Rooftop pool with runway views (rare for this area)
- Free self-parking (a unicorn for airport hotels)
Краткий обзор: A shiny, modern Westin that feels like a proper hotel, not just a crash pad, provided you don't land after 11 PM.
Подтверждено @BouHotels: I was shocked by how massive this suite is! Having a full-size pool table right in the living room was such a fun surprise. It completely changed my vibe before an early flight out of RDU. If you're stuck on a layover here, this is definitely the way to do it.
