Sleep Inn West Valley City - Salt Lake City South

My wife and I stayed here for two nights while attending a wedding for close friends. The location was convenient, right off the freeway and fairly central to the wedding and reception. Check-in was excellent—staff were friendly and helpful, which started our stay on a positive note. Once inside the room, things went downhill. The room felt a little cramped, and while not terrible, it was oddly decorated—the desk was placed halfway across an adjoining door, which didn’t make much sense. We also noticed a cigarette burn in the carpet, which raised a red flag and led us to inspect things more closely. Unfortunately, the bathroom confirmed our concerns: the shower door was rotting, the shower knob was grimy, and overall it just didn’t feel clean enough to use barefoot. The one positive was that the bed and sheets were clean and comfortable, so at least we could get some rest. However, even lying in bed, we noticed dirty handprints and other unidentifiable markings on the ceiling—hardly a relaxing atmosphere. We considered canceling the second night and moving closer to the reception, but the hotel informed us that because our booking was under a “promotional offer” (which we didn’t realize—we apparently saved all of $4), cancellations weren’t allowed. That policy forced us to stick it out for both nights. In the end, we made do—keeping socks on, taking quick sponge baths with washcloths, and focusing on the wedding activities. While the staff was great and the bed was fine, the overall cleanliness and maintenance issues were too much to overlook. Unfortunately, we won’t be staying here again.

Not the cleanest

Was an alright stay.

Ok but not great The room was small and the bed was even smaller. The staff was friendly, but they said the beds are queens and they were actually full size. Didn’t get good sleep at all. To top it off there were no elevators had to lug all our stuff up and down stairs, craziness.

Easy to check in

Good value Very friendly front desk. Basic, small room, a little run down but fully functional. Surprisingly comfortable bed, high quality pillows and linen. If you want a good value for a spending the night, this is it.
