Hyatt Place Salt Lake City/Cottonwood
"What I liked most was it is located on the edge of town near Cottonwood Canyon. So it’s convenient for going to the zoo and Park City areas. Maybe not as convenient if you were flying in/out but we were driving so that wasn’t a concern. Excellent breakfast, very clean, located nice neighborhood."

"We love the location and have stayed many times, however, we were a bit disappointed in our stay this time. It took 1/2 hour to check in; apparently due to a new program? The hallway to our room was about 60 degrees and breakfast coffee didn’t have any flavored creamer options."
