"Extremely Happy Guest"
TripAdvisor user rating 5 out of 5
Reviewed April 01, 2025 NEW
I was BEYOND happy with my stay at the hotel. The staff was very friendly and and accommodating. I made the horrible mistake at booking at the La Quinta Inn & Suites. DO NOT EVER BOOK TO STAY THERE. It’s basically a loud, dirty, drug motel and the rooms smelled horrible. I quickly looked to find another option and this hotel was thankfully available!! Yuvia was the front desk receptionist when I arrived after my horrible experience. She was very understanding and she even upgraded my room. I could not have been more happy with my stay. I was overjoyed with my stay at the hotel. The comfort and tranquility it provided were far superior to what I experienced at the La Quinta.

The service was amazing!! Everyone was super friendly and helpful with anything needed. The rooms were super nice and comfortable. They have a complimentary breakfast every morning that was delicious. And it is in a great central location to being able to walk to the Capitol and UT campus.

Staff was extremely nice and accommodating to our big group. They prepared check in ahead of time and were very kind to everyone in our party and subsequent guests. Breakfast was very delicious and had a wide selection. It was a great overall stay, 5 stars.

"Not a great stay"
TripAdvisor user rating 2 out of 5
Reviewed February 27, 2025
I don't have a ton of loyalty points with Hilton, so when I checked in, I'm sure I was given a room that wasn't the best. The room was on the north side of the hotel over an alley. Also over the dumpsters. Every morning for three days in a row at 4:30am, it was either a very loud garbage truck emptying it, or someone was throwing trash into it and since it was empty, it echoed like crazy. The A/C didn't work. It was originally set to 68 so I put it in heat mode and set it to 70. No change. With the warm weather, it eventually got to 71. I put it in cool mode and for 36 hours, it never got down to 70. The TV would lose audio when changing channels. Twice, while watching a local channel, it would simply jump to the home screen(the screen that is shown when first powering up). I had to call guest services once because it wouldn't turn on. The hotel website says nothing about having a fitness center. There is one in the hotel, but not listed under the amenity section.

"Hope you brought your own lightsource"

Reviewed February 26, 2025
I stayed at this hotel and it is well maintained. Convenient parking, good breakfast. My issue was the lighting in the bathroom. I have a light meter (I am in commercial construction for a living) and took the light measurement in the bathroom and it registered 8 footcandles. 8! To give you an idea, a night light gives off 5 footcandles. When I asked the front desk, she said she knew this was an issue and that other customers had complained as well. This is a SIMPLE fix. GET NEW LIGHTBULBS! Really was a pain trying to get ready in the morning and not being able to see and FORGET nighttime! You had better get your cell phone out and use it as a flashlight if you want to put on make up or put in a contact. This is too good of a hotel to let lighting be your downfall. Please fix this!!!
