Westin-higher cost overall-meals$$$$$$$, accommodations, etc. BEWARE:LOTS OF HIDDEN COSTS!!! The peanuts in the room cost 10.00-ouch!! Large suites. Excellent $$$$$$$$ food. Location near great lower price local Guatemalan restaurants. NOTE:Pool access not that great-need to go down to the basement level, then walk up many stairs to the pool

More security than the Marriott. A bit more upscale than Marriott overall.
Beautiful foyer and halls!! Gift shops on first floor. Location near local gift shops. Mall four blocks away. Gambling on the first floor.
Marriott-excellent food!!! pool has easy access, restaurants are great!!! Average accommodations. Less security than Westin. Gift shops on first floor. Location near local gift shops. McDonald's next door.
DH and I stayed at both, the Westin was esthetically nicer, however we would stay at the Marriott if we ever go back!! Save $$$$$$$ if you stay at the Marriott
