"Absolutely loved this place! The rooms were so fun and unique, and the staff was very kind and helpful. My only issue was that the stairs up to the bathtub in my room (the third floor jungle suite) were very small and slightly sloped, so it was kinda hard to get in and out of the tub. It seemed like the other rooms I saw probably don't have this issue? But all in all would definitely stay again!"

"great staff. The bed could use replacement"

Anniversary Inn - South Temple

Hampton Inn & Suites Salt Lake City-University/Foothill Dr

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and had all the amenities you'd need. For the women, there was a little sealed pack with a hair scrunchy and elastic and a makeup wipe. There were plenty of towels, shampoo, conditioner body wash, and lotion. There is a little fridge to bring back leftovers and keep water bottles cold. We couldn't find the closet but then realized that it was behind the long mirror-- COOL! Open the mirror and there's the closet! We thought that it was a great use of space, but wondered how many others had the same thought of Where's the closet?:) We didn't eat the complimentary breakfast there but we do love that option. It is very nice that they have an covered parking garage. Just know that it is not connected to the hotel. It was raining that morning so we got a tad wet walking to the car, but it was only about 10 or so steps away. Great stay and would stay there again!"
