The Metropolitan Inn

8/10 Good

"The building is not new, but it is clean and well maintained. Considering the location and price, I think it's a good hotel for those who want to keep accommodation costs down."

Salt Lake City Marriott University Park

10/10 Excellent

"Love how the staff are friendly and helpful. Hotel and room is clean and comfortable ."

New distinctive historical unit from 5 Star Host

10/10 Excellent

"Quick and easy booking. Great communication, had everything we needed."

Anniversary Inn - South Temple

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arriving, I was notified that the hotel would be short staffed, & I had the option of staying in their other hotel, or going to the other hotel to check-in, pick up my key there & go to the hotel I had booked to open their doors & be in my room with no staff. I apparently was the only person at all in that hotel that night, with no staff & no other people staying overnight. I was okay with that, however, I could not find the ice machine at all for my champagne. I called multiple times the other hotel to try and contact somebody as to where the ice machine was, but calls were not picked up. I finally found an unplugged ice machine in the maid's closet. I plugged it in & turned it on for 30 mins to get some ice for myself. The jets in my room's elegant hot tub did not work, but I still enjoyed the tub. The room i stayed in was the secret garden room, & was very pretty inside with painted gardens on the wall, etc. The next morning, i received breakfast at my door which was great, & my calls to the hotel for an iron & ironing board were brought to me as well. The staff was nice & helpful the morning after my stay when they were there. I just wish there was better communication on the night I was staying there."
