This is the hotel we stayed in for our time in Salt Lake
City. We had made reservations for a two Queen accessible room with a roll in
shower. When we arrived the place was very accessible with an automatic door to
get in the front and plenty of space in the lobby area. When checking in my mom
asked to make sure that there was a roll in shower because we've had that
problem before. They said yes it did. So we go up to the room and I go look in
the bathroom and there's a tub. So back downstairs we go. When we returned to
tell them at the front desk that there was no roll in shower they acted very
surprised. Apparently their computer system has that room marked as a two Queen
with a roll in shower. So the one lady at the front desk took a list of the
handicapped rooms available and went to check to see if they had what their
supposed to have. When she came back she said they didn't have any two Queens
with a roll in showers available tonight. So she tried to call around to other
hotels after this didn't turn up anything she said we could stay in the room
without the roll in shower for one night at a discount and then move in the
morning for the rest of our stay. Since this was our best option we took it.
And it worked okay except for being a pain to have to move everything and
taking up time.
These rooms were both about the same with two Queen beds and a
bit of a sitting area with a couch. For the bathrooms there were basically two
of them one with the toilet and sink and one with a shower and sink. In our
accessible room I tried to get in the bathroom and could not fit in with my
power chair. The door was wide enough however because of where the beds were you
couldn’t come straight into the door meaning you had to pull up to the door and
turn in. So I wasn't able to get into either the bathroom rooms with my power
chair. But the good news was my shower/toilet chair fit in. The roll in shower
worked all right but was a little on the skinny side and a little extra space
in the shower would've been nice.
Also in the room was a table that worked well
for me to get under which was good since that's where I had to brush my teeth. The
best part was my hoyer lift could go underneath the bed which was great since
we didn't have to move me around so much to get in and out of it.
