It was absolutely perfect for one person. However there were two of us. But we managed well and the place was so beautifully clean in every room bathroom and toilet we were very impressed. Also impressed with the lounge rooms upstairs and down and the multiple bathrooms everywhere Thank you Arthur!

This was the cleanest, most organized, most secure hostel I've ever stayed at. Great location, highly recommend. Will revisit on future solo trips.

Sou brasileira e fiquei nesse hostel. É bem localizado e tudo você faz sozinho. Não há pessoas para o checkin lá na hora, você receberá instruções por mensagem no celular . Eu peguei um quarto só para mim e fez toda a diferença. Estar sozinha é bem melhor do que compartilhar o quarto. O preço foi ótimo. O hostel é limpo, banheiro e chuveiro bons. O hostel é meio barulhento, pessoas fazem muito barulho mas faz parte. A cama também é de metal e barulhenta. Mas minha estadia foi tranquila. Ter um carro é essencial para a viagem a salt lake city porém você pode fazer tudo com o trem que é excelente também. Para ir ao hostel eu utilizei o trem diretamente do aeroporto e foi muito tranquilo e rápido e barato, fácil acesso ao hostel. Para quem gosta da escola do HSM, fica perto de lá aproximadamente 8 minutos de carro. Vale a pena ficar nesse hostel. Recomendo pegar um quarto com single bad se for ficar mais de 2 dias no hostel. A estadia foi excelente e nenhum problema. Eu recomendo.

I liked the openness and security. I didn't like not having someone available to answer questions

1st & foremost this place is CLEAN. We came to SLC for a getaway from our kids, but didn't really have the money to spend on a hotel. We stayed in room A5 which had a queen bed. UTA Trax is super close, and the area is very walkable. We bought a last minute groupon to a Jazz game. We walked, stopped for a drink, and then went to the Delta Center. At that point we hadn't realized how trax had worked but the next day we used it to go to the mall and then to go out to an R&B show. The only complaint i have is that the lights in the hallway are VERY intense. So if you need to pee in the middle of the night its pretty shocking. But as i said so many positives cleanliness, price, location....truly a gem!

What a great place. Clean, everything was new, although the property is unmanned. That took some getting used to. But the room is clean and bright. Bathrooms and showers are brand new and spotless. Full kitchen (no oven) and huge fridge/ freezer. Very quiet which is important to me. Great location and those local scooters get you anywhere.

Since the location of the camelot hostel is close to the tax, I typically stay at the Camlot hostel during my Salt Lake Ski Trips. In the end, even though my regular reservation was canceled and no rooms were available, the accommodations were still available in this location. Given that I require a tax ticket to get to the Uta Ski bus, this turned out to be an additional 50 yards. Because there is no one visible, as other camelot reviews report, you must handle everything by phone, text, or email. Due to the possibility of couid, I decided to reserve a single room, which functions better with the ski gear I carry with me. The restroom amenities are nice because the building is still new. The heating system worked well in the evening, so guests didn't have to wear layers of clothes when coming inside.

I usually stay at the Camlot hostel when skiing in salt lake because it is close to the tax. Anyway, when I made my usual reservation, the room was canceled and there was no room available, but this location had rooms. I'm a bit suspicious because I need access to the tax to get to the Uta ski bus. Well, it turned out to be only 50 yards extra. So, as the other reviews on Camelot show, there is no attendant in sight, so you must deal with everything via text or email. I decided to reserve a single room because there was no room available because the couid prevented me from carrying my skiing gear. The bathrooms are good because they are newer. There was no need to wear clothing in the evening because the heating worked well.

I slept soundly, and the room was comfortable. My only complaint: there was a strange smell in the main area and hallway. Overall, it was a great place to stay.

SLC hostel is a great choice for the solo traveler. Just a block away from the TRAX. Which gives you access to downtown, airport and around the region. It has the amenities you’d expect at a hostel such as separate kitchen, shower rooms, bathrooms but, I never had any competition to use these during my stay. Self check in was easy, I also like that they allow you to store luggage (for a fee) after checkout so you can spend your last day in SLC exploring without lugging around your bags. The management is easy to reach and was able to assist within 10 minutes.

Good budget friendly option in SLC. Walkable to restaurants and bar and high by public transportation. Easy to find free street parking. Good wifi and clean bathrooms with good water pressure/temperature. Contactless checkin went smoothness. The room itself was felt more like a cell than a bedroom. It needed airing out. Not very comfortable or homey.

I booked a single room. I thought I am going to take a massage when I opened the room. Bathroom is clean. People live there are friendly.

The entire hostel is self service, meaning that there is no staff on hand. If you have problems with anything you are supposed to call the manager. I paid $45 for a private room, which was clean, but it was the size of a jail cell and had the personality of one as well. The room was about 12x10, with enough room for a cheap steel frame bed and a thin mattress. There was only one pillow which was so thin I had to fold it in half to make it function. The walls and door to the room was so thin that I could hear everything happening in the rooms around mine and the halls all echoed, so that I could hear everything out side the room. The whole place had a depressing, abandoned feel to it but I knew it wasn’t abandoned because I heard people through the thin walls and door all night.
