I also had a balcony park view room at the Westin and it was WONDERFUL! Check out my room! That was a free upgrade, too (Bonvoy Gold status).
The walk wasn't too bad, but it was a little scary last Saturday at midnight walking back. Not many people around and there was a crazy lady ahead of us yelling and behaving erratically. It was a lovely walk during the day. And security wasn't busy on the DTD side.
We also easily got a 2pm late checkout, too, which is usually not that doable with just Gold status. That helped out a lot on our last day.
