Property was great and close to the hospitals and campus. Room and view were amazing. If that is what you want then it is great. However, $20 for a "buffet" that is a free continental breakfast at most 2 star motels and is one of the most horrible hotel breakfasts i have had. Stay here for a good stay but go anywhere else for food.

The property overall was pretty nice but the paid parking was not expected or appreciated. An extra $16 to park at a property we already paid to stay at is unreasonable. The front desk staff were nice, room was clean, but the shower head was terrible. The restaurant was nice but extremely overpriced for the quality and what you get. 6 hot wings for $19 is ridiculous no matter how many vegetables you put on the plate.

Nice hotel and location

It’s a nice hotel in a great location by the hospital if you have business there. Our room had a couple of issues and the front desk were very quick to make corrections and get us in a different room, we were very happy with the service.

Well Cared For !

After having my flight delayed 12 hours , I arrived early to check in and exhausted. Not only did they let me check in early, they upgraded my room and gave my daughter and I Starbucks coffee vouchers. We came to SLC for The Yungblud concert and we're grateful to have the extra time in the room to rest before the concert which was amazing!!

Marriott Mediocre

The front desk experience was beyond mediocre. I've had check-ins at Motel 6 that were friendlier. The $16 overnight parking charge was unexpected and would discourage me from booking this hotel ever again. The on-site Starbucks was staffed by one person - a 15-minute wait for a cup of coffee? No thanks. This is a property on the downhill slide.
