Park Inn by Radisson, Salt Lake City Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I didn't have any shampoo in my room and I inquired about it twice, thinking that they would take some sort of initiative to take to my room but fell on deaf ears. It's the little things that count. Other than that the hotel was surprisingly clean and updated."
