I'll edit this review if/when they BRING BACK DECAF COFFEE TO THE LOBBY. They completely removed it last week. Unfortunately, that will shade the rest of this review. This is an extended stay hotel that's easy to live in for long periods (and clearly many people do). We were here from just before Thanksgiving to just before Christmas (about 5 weeks), then returned for another week. We're scheduled to return in Feb/Mar... we'll see. Location: If you are skiing at Brighton or Solitude, there is a UTA ski bus stop directly out the front door; could not be easier. If you are headed to Alta/Snowbird, I suggest driving to the Historic Sandy TRAX station park and ride to catch that UTA ski bus, because it has a big parking lot and you know you'll get a seat. Otherwise, you are driving yourself (check for prices and required reservations to park at all the ski places; it is VERY dynamic and has already changed for a couple of them this year). The hotel is off Fort Union Ave by just far enough to not have too much road noise. It's walking distance to any/all retail you could dream of. Seriously, ANY. That includes a grocery store. Lots of restaurants, Target, Walmart, a Sierra Outfitters, and lots more. Amenities: Nice big pool, decent hot tub which is usually hot enough. Both can be overrun with kids and families, but if you keep your eye on things you can find quiet time in there, usually. As at any hotel, the highly-treated water can start to make your skin itch after too many days of apres-ski hot tubbing. The fitness room is large with lots of equipment; they don't have a Universal, but do have treadmills, elliptical, Peleton bike, recumbent, weight rack and two benches, assorted mats, rollers, Bosus, etc. Balance scale to check your weight. Breakfast is pretty good for this kind of hotel. Three kinds of eggs that cycle through (cheese and veggie omelettes, plain scrambled), three kinds of meat that do the same (bacon, ham, sausage). Potatoes or sometimes biscuits&gravy. Waffles. Oatmeal. Most days they put out a cereal selection. Canned fruit. Wednesday is the managers social dinner, which consists of a lettuce salad and a main like meatballs, BBW meat, or chili. Beer and wine, a dessert like blondies or lemon bars. We REALLY appreciate the Wednesday ”dinner.” Service: The staff is absolutely friendly and helpful, every one of them. Most speak some English (some do not, at all). Any problems we had with our room were addressed quickly. Rooms/Building: The building is shaped like a circle. In the summer, be careful of rooms that face the courtyard as there is a basketball court out there which is noisy. The rooms are big enough with what could be called a ”full” kitchen: 2 burner stovetop, full size fridge, dishwasher, drip coffee maker. Not really enough plates and flatware, one big and one small saucepan, toaster, microwave. Plenty of uncovered parking, mostly in the rear of the hotel. You can get a room with a gas fireplace, whi
