Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room comes with a refrigerator and coffee maker, and several local diners and fast-casual spots are within walking distance. You'll find late-night bites close by, and the front desk staff can point you to the best spots open after midnight. No breakfast buffet here, but nearby cafés open mid-morning to help you recover from late nights.

Nightlife Options

You're just minutes from Salt Lake City’s growing bar and lounge scene. Whether you're into live music bars, craft cocktail lounges, or laid-back pubs, you'll find options a short Uber or Lyft ride away.

What People Say

Guests consistently mention the hotel’s great value and friendly staff. Travelers love the easy parking, quiet rooms, and the convenience of being close to both the airport and downtown venues. Many reviews highlight the cleanliness of the rooms and the reliable WiFi, perfect for streaming or planning your evening out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel is a bit older and could use a few updates. The seasonal outdoor pool is a plus—but only available in warmer months. Also, while the location is central, it’s best to have a car or rideshare app handy, especially late at night.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Julie E, Salt Lake City Sun, 2 October 2011

It was loud and drug infested. There was only a sheet and the bed cover, no blanket at all. The water temperature was way too hot and burnt a hand. Mold in the shower. Towels were too small, only had one wash cloth in the motel. Pretty sure there was prostitutes hanging outside our room. We had to put in ear plugs and turn on the fan to drown them out. Will never stay there again. Almost went somewhere else all together.

Liked: The employees were nice.
Disliked: Was not impressed with this location

Sketchy

Liked: Location was close to the downtown, so that was good. Staff was friendly.
Disliked: Room smelled like cigarettes, had yellow running stains on the bathroom walls. Breakfast was low quality, kind of expected, but they had few options so that’s good. Staff gave us the wrong WiFi password. Kind of noisy place too. Not staying there again.

Miller Sun, 25 May 2025

EH!

Liked: That it was gated.
Disliked: No juice at either morning breakfast. No milk on Fri. for the abundance of dry cereal and oatmeal. 1/3 of heated breakfast items not covered. Small pieces of litter along both bed frames. Literally put 3 towel sets in a 2 queen bed room. The 1 inch border of dust on the floor at the wall.The front door striker plate was about a 1/4 inch off. ( didn't exactly shut all the way even when locked. The hvac fan would never turn off, had to unplug for it to end. One more thing, just reminded of the possibility of poop actually being on the wall on both walls around toilet.
