This was negative experience, the sauna wasn’t working when I used the pool, the ice machine out of order on my floor and I went up and down several floors to find one and only 1 elevator was working at the same time, the blind in my room didn’t rolled down, very loud noise happened and repeated multiple times between 6-7am that woke me up. I called front desk no one asked me. All these happened on the same day and I only stayed one night!! How can you ask me to rate my stays! I never experienced this before from my years of business travel.

Clean comfort without breaking the bank.

This Holiday Inn Express is a good choice of accommodations. It was clean, comfortable, and affordable. Right in the heart of downtown SLC, it provides an excellent base for exploring the city without breaking the bank. Don't expect lots of frills; just a quiet, friendly place to lay your head at night. We had a good experience here for our first visit to SLC.
