Some cool stuff:
1. Free wifi...in the lobby. Well, at least there is some free wifi somewhere.
2. A very cool safe in each room
3. Some rooms equipped with weight systems for people to workout right in their room.
4. Flat-screen TV.
5. Comfy bed.
Some not-so cool stuff:
1. One soap bar for two adults...very tacky. Shower and use the same soap for your hands at the sink...
2. WiFi in the room is priced per night or half-hour

Hale Center Theater Orem
Categories: Performing Arts, Costumes, Art Schools
This is theater-in-the-round so there is very limited seating but each seat is a good one (except maybe in the corners).
Tip: Don't miss a chance to see Christmas Carol in December, a seasonal tradition.
My recommendation: Try the fajitas.

The other nice thing about this place is the location. Right off of the freeway. We came up from the south, but this is also a good spot for meeting anyone on their way out to the airport (just get onto I-215 and go west).
Besides the wide assortment of animals, I was pleased with the amount of places to sit and eat.
Tip:
Go early; we went close to opening on a Saturday with plenty of parking and short lines. When we left around 10:30a it was a lot busier. Also, in the summer I imagine it is probably pretty hot. There is a lot of shade in some parts, but others are totally open.
Cool stuff: really nice waiting area with lots of chairs, vending machines and even popcorn.
Good prices for services; tires may be the same way...not sure.
Inside tips:
1. Go early. Tried to go around 3pm on a Saturday and they were booked the rest of the night. Next week I went in at 9am with no problem.
2. Staples has free wifi and you can tap into it from here (the signal might be weak though). Bring a laptop and get some work/play done while you wait.
3. Warning: the strong tire smell started getting to me about the time I left (50 mins). Anyone sensitive to smells will probably want to do some other shopping in the area while they wait for their car to get done.

Salt Lake City International Airport

For people who are bored, there is a hotspot here from Boingo but it isn't free (boo).
One nice thing, if you have little kids they have a small play area that is 3/4 enclosed. Might help for short layovers.
The HBLL has specialist librarians for soft and hard sciences and the humanities. Come for research help, research materials, art exhibits, lectures, quiet study, collaborative study, or whatever.

Unlike some libraries, PCCSL has an open media collection for browsing. Very nice.
Soft chairs, quiet study areas, and group study rooms all near large windows are perfect for anyone who just wants to study in a comfortable environment.

Gerrit has no friends.

We grabbed two connected rooms for the comfort for less than a single room at a "nice" hotel.
The pool was closed. Ok. We had to get a TV replaced. Ok. But we paid $54/night! Seriously a great deal. The hotel was a little old but nothing unlivable. Would stay here again for sure if we ever got stranded in Green River again. lol
