The Westin Reston Heights

The hotel provides a delicious breakfast buffet, convenient location near restaurants and airport, and consistently praised clean, spacious rooms with comfortable beds and good amenities, along with attentive service.

Windows do not open in rooms and there is Zero ventilation of fresh air. Using Aranet4 monitors, CO2 levels increased an average of 1000PPM (parts per million) every hour with 2 adults in the room. Recommended CO2 levels for indoor air are 600PPM. The only vent in the entire room is about 10"x6". No other vents or fans in the bedroom, bathroom or entry. Very little airflow from the one vent. I measured CO2 coming from the vent and it was the same as the ambient CO2 in the room. One of the many common side effects from high CO2 is headaches/migraines. I get terrible migraines which makes travel & flying unbearable. Zero ventilation violates Virginia, ASHRA & OSHA federal air quality limits. It's not just unhealthy, levels this high are dangerous. I reserved a balcony room, but balcony rooms are next to ice machines & elevators, they also overlook the highway (very loud) stink bugs were on balcony. Room doors are heavily weighted and difficult to open, they automatically slam shut with great force (extremely loud), doors were slamming shut up/down hallway all night. A/C was broken, 2 hrs+ for repairs, room temp 86F up until 11PM. Took 3hrs for room to cool to 72F. Room was dirty, shower had mold, counter & sink were filthy.
