Clean bedding and sheets would have been nice. We had to put T-shirts over the pillows because they smelled like body odor. The sheets and pillow cases were wrinkled. Bedding was dingy and had a brown hue suggesting they haven’t been cleaned in who knows how long. I’ve been wanting to try this place as I frequent the area for skiing and work, but was sadly disappointed at the condition of the bed, which is essentially the most important part of travel accommodations. The check-in was a breeze though and extremely efficient and no fuss. The TV was one of the best I’ve experienced-it was super clear and we got the football games; a plus since I’ve never been able to get NFL games at the places I’ve stayed in SLT.

room is extremely old and dated furnishings. Are Walmart quality very cold room we could not get the heater to turn on limited towels just very cheap could hear people in the room above us in their room on the side of us talking. I don’t really have anything good to say other than it was very easy to check in and check out

This place was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. The room was filthy — stained sheets, sticky floors, and a bathroom that looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. The staff were rude, dismissive, and completely uninterested in helping with even the simplest requests. The so-called “amenities” were either broken or nonexistent, and the noise level at night was unbearable. I wouldn’t wish a stay here on my worst enemy. Save yourself the money and the misery — there are plenty of better places to stay

Good location, but overpriced.

We chose this hotel because it’s a short walk from the Harvey’s concert venue and it had three beds in the room (there were three of us on this trip). All communication was done virtually. There was zero human interaction, which felt odd and impersonal. The room was a good size, but was basic. For $200+ per night (after tax), we expected more.

Good things: - when I found out that our room was on the second floor, and I phoned the hotel to see if they could change it to a 1st floor room (because I have problems with stairs) they were very helpful. Bad things: - The front desk was totally unmanned

Wouldn't stay here again. First room they gave us had crumbs on bed, we thought maybe just on outside so we pulled back covers and there was food crumbs, hair, and a plastic part of fork and some kind of pin. Sheets clearly not washed. We called and manager apologized and immediately put us in another room. That room was better. However the air-conditioner leaked all over the floor, so did the fridge. We had to use our towels for that and only have 1 each to ourselves. The shower had no water pressure either it sucked. The room itself was spacious, nice bed, newer decor. If it wasn't cheapest room we could find we would have stayed somewhere else. Easy check in/out process and quick response to my issues. But wet floor and crappy water pressure was deal breaker.

Excellent location, great bang for your buck, walkable to beach and main area of downtown. Stayed 1 night and was ideal for our situation. Outside is a bit weathered, but rooms were clean and tidy. Only issue was tap in bathtub was a bit wonky.

Dirty Room, bad service

Huge safety issue with the door lock missing screws on both sides, broken latch to lock the door and i was given a DIRTY room. I was told by the manager at 4:30p that our room wasn't ready and i could either wait until she got to our room because the cleaners didn't show up, or i could drive around and come back later..well it wasn't ready even after 6pm. When we finally get inside after calling and leaving a message on the hotels doorbell ring camera to get the key because our room wasn't keyless and No One was on site i received a message on how to get the key, and our room hadn't been cleaned at all. Dirty bed covers, All mirrors had fingerprints and the one over the sink had toothpaste splatter, dirty toilet, dirty tub, the shower curtain had a horrible smell, the microwave was dirty and missing a knob, the fridge was dirty on the outside and inside it had some sticky brown stuff, and even the window blinds had stains. When i called the manager she said she had cleaned it herself and she was sorry it wasn't up to my standards. After telling her i had taken pictures of how dirty it was she said she could clean it "again" the next day because she wasn't on site anymore or we could cancel the room and said the door wasn't a safety issues at all...unfortunately i was unable to cancel and i had to clean the room myself(Toilet, tub, restroom floor, microwave and fridge) and used our OWN blankets and sheets to cover all the beds to be able to sleep on.
Toilet had stains and smelled bad and yes I had to clean it myself and it all came off
Dirty window blinds
Found brown sticky substance when I was putting in my coconut water. Yes, I cleaned that also
Dirty microwave and fridge.Yes I also wiped it down with disinfectant wiped I had to purchase and it all wiped off
