Avenues Hostel

Wound up spending three times...

Disliked: The day before I was going to travel to SLC, my wife contacted the hotel to see if I needed my own towels. Several hours later we received an email from the booking.com informing me: "We are no longer open for business due to zoning issues with our business license. Please contact booking company and request a refund. Thanks." Had we not made that inquiry we never would have known this until I arrived at the address. Amazing that Booking.com did not tell nor did the hotel.

Good

Good

Liked: Affordability

Ladies beware

Liked: The neighborhood.
Disliked: The bathrooms were FILTHY...wed may 8, an older lady complained about the bathrooms, and a staff member accused her of being "disrespectful". She was forced to leave ..by the cops, on a cold windy day. I heard part of the Convo...she was upset about the GROSS bathrooms, but not "disrespectful. This is an OUTRAGE. Also, I reported an unsafe condition to that same staff member. He said "The owner is aware of it but is not going to fix it." The staff uses FILTHY language in front of Ladies. What kind of Hospitality is that!?! This is America. We should NEVER stand for this.
