Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 391 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Boltonski Renovated Property with Character My wife and I traveled to Salt Lake City for a short sight seeing trip before heading to Provo for a football game. We were impressed with the Sheraton. While obviously older (the exterior gives that away), it has been maintained well and renovated. The room was a suite, and was tastefully decorated. The on-site restaurant was a great place to grab breakfast, and had quality ingredients in the food selections. The staff were courteous and professional. Our only real complaint was the very slow wifi connection - pathetically slow. But we weren't there on business, so it was only a minor flaw in an overall great experience. December 5, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Sam3102 Great Staff, Not So Great Room The staff was helpful and friendly. The banquet food was good. The gloomy lighting in the room and common areas was awful. They DO make CFL bulbs that emit a warm, yellow glow. Sheraton should get some. The lighting in my room evoked a parking garage emergency lighting feel. Would have been a deal breaker for me if I wasn't there for a convention. Floor lamp had a short and didn't work. The room lacked a refrigerator, and although I requested one at the front desk (for additional charge), it was never delivered to my room. The towel bar in the bathroom was broken on one end and kept snagging my nightgown. I did appreciate the free WIFI and the in-house Starbucks. October 28, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by ScottMilwaukee 0 for Two Checked into the first room, desk was dirty, hair in the bathroom, glass door was cracked and the closet door handle fell off in my hand. I call to ask for an alternative, for both a clean room and one with a view other than the back of the hot tub hut. I was moved to the room next door. While cleaner and had a functioning door handle, there were several things left to be desired including TV smears, and a couple of hairs in bathroom and fingerprints on the glass balcony door... The room was full of brite white CFL lights leaving the room feeling very sterile and cold inspite of the recent and nice upgrades... December 9, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by PEstefania Nice property however the food quality left much to be desired Great property with a great location. The staff was friendly and responsive for the most part. The pool is a great feature! Now the food...wow not only it is expensive (it was a waste of money to be honest) it was also not worth it. The appetizer was not cooked properly and did not look appealing. The main plate chicken was burned and the salad was soggy. With all due respect, went to McDonalds across the street and got a better quality meal (that is saying a lot), quicker and much more affordable. The restaurant/bar needs a MAJOR OVERHAUL ASAP!!! Don't waste your money in the restaurant until they fix it! July 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by ManOnVacation Great value for money This is an excellent hotel for category 2 spg award redemption - the spg level was clean and nicely appointed with plenty of outlets both at the desk and bedside. The bed was excellent. I appreciated the spacious lobby with large sitting area, huge fireplace, and outdoor seating and firepit looked great although it was snowing when I was there. The AAA breakfast rate offered a great value because the breakfast buffet was actually quite decent and the service was very good. I especially appreciated the late serving time (until 11am) on Sunday! My only complaint, not unique to this Sheraton, was that there were no identified recycle bins anywhere in the room, nor in the hotel. December 12, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by UnhappyVoyager Terrible Stay My stay here was terrible. I arrived after dark and had to park in an unlit, unstaffed parking lot which felt very unsafe. The hotel room was lit only by glaring flourescent lights, even on the bedside, giving an institutional feel. The room was not clean, with visible dirt & grime. I ordered a salad from room service for dinner, and it had wilted and rotten lettuce, and was truly inedible. The staff was very nice and helpful but I recommend against staying here! January 10, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by BostonTV Never walked so much Low price and low quality Sheraton hotel, with a nice swimming pool, a non-functionning sauna, a poor restaurant (closed early) and poor room service (lot of food, but bad food). And kilometer-long corridors. I got a 2-floors suite at one end of the building and my Platinum card gave me access to the Club at the other end, 10th floor. Never walked so much, but I was obliged to do so, as there is no fridge in the room, no minibar, no fresh water. Another thing is the free transfer from airport to the hotel: I asked for it in my booking file, and never got an answer, so I finnaly had to take the taxi. August 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Will14 Always a great experience I have been skeptical of this property in the past due to minor issues (in retrospect) such as outdoor signage, etc.. The property is making improvements in these minor areas and the staff is without a doubt one of the most committed teams I have seen in my travels. The service level is simply outstanding; from TC in the lounge, to the front desk team, to the shuttle team, there is no request that cannot be met. On two separate occasions I have had flights cancelled and have had to stay an additional unplanned night. The team has always been able to accommodate me- even if the property was sold out. I highly recommend this hotel if you are visiting Salt Lake City for business or pleasure. June 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by StevefromToronto Nice hotel, friendly staff Received a nice & friendly greeting at the hotel, acknowledged my status and got a room on the club floor. Room was a good size with a large bathroom, the internet seemed unreliable, had to babysit the connection. Club room was nice with some food for breakfast & dinner including free beer / wine. Free business center. Provided very convenient free shuttle service to and from the airport. Staff was helpful & knowledgeable, very willing to answers questions re events in town. December 8, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by John11 SOOOOOOOOO DISAPOINTING Upon check in I waited 15 mins in line as there was only one person working the check in. My room key didnt work first go around. The heater was broken in my room and maintenance had to come and fix it. Wi-Fi was spotty in my location and had to go to lobby to work. Ceiling paint was pealing and so was "stuff" in tub. Went to get shuttle at 0800 and found it left at 0750 had to wait 30 mins for next but it didnt show so had to get the concierge to drive me to airport at 0838. Best thing about this Sheraton was the bar tender who invited me in got me on the net to work and talked to me about beer. April 18, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Stephen65 Poor SPG Recognition This was my first SPG Club level stay. At check-in, the associate was unable to find my SPG account details. After over 10 minutes of trying to find my information, I decide I would deal with that detail later. The associate made no mention of amenities available for guests staying in SPG Club level rooms. Not knowing, I did not use any of those amenities of which I was informed upon check-out from the property. There was nothing in the room that promoted them either. The associate that assisted me on check-out found my SPG account information with about 5 clicks of her computer mouse. First impressions are critical. Communicate and promote the added value for which your guests have paid. October 6, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Patty63 About the green project The Sheraton offers clients the option of not washing linens and towels in return for a $5 a day voucher toward food at the hotel. (Might I add, the food is excellent). However, when I called and asked that the vouchers be run up to my room it never happened. In addition, the vouchers cannot be used anywhere else and credit toward room service cannot be offered without vouchers in hand. The point???? Actually, saving water is worth it in and of itself, but don't offer vouchers if they are not actually given. Right?! In most every other way I would recommend this hotel to family and friends. March 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Stephanie3 Wonderful Experience The location of the hotel is perfect. There are several very good restaurants within walking distance. There are also several grocery stores about a mile away. There is plenty of parking and the staff was very nice. We did not use the pool, but could see it from our room and there was always someone in it. I will stay here again when in Salt Lake. September 5, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Cathe Sheraton SLC Hotel is at a convenient location and will meet the needs of a business traveler for 1-2 days. The hotel does not have many amenities to relax such as a fitness room or a spa. It has a small pool and limited choices of foods within the hotel. Restaurants need to add healthy or vegetarian choices to their menu. Airport shuttle is not readily available at the airport. I have stayed here several times and each time had to call the hotel and wait 25 minutes for a hotel shuttle. Not convenient for a business traveler who has a meeting scheduled a few hours after airport landing. August 26, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by drac Next time I'll search for something else Typically as SPG Gold you're treated better. I was checked in without being told that I was not going to be in an SPG level room. They put me in a room down a long hallway next to an ice maker that went off all night. Not the room I paid for. I spoke with the front desk at check out. The woman was apologetic and explained that the hotel was very busy and that I'm only a Gold member and my level didn't earn me a better room since they had a convention in the hotel. Wish I had looked for other options but I will next time. October 28, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by BadExperience01 Suprisingly bad Reserved my room on line - was given the opportunity to upgrade to the "club" level. Got to the hotel was told no upgrade was available because the Star members get those rooms first - I declined the invitation as was told no upgrade was available - even though at the time of reservation it was and I tried to upgrade immediately after that. I was told by the lady at check in that my room would over look the court yard. It over looked the street to the west. I found animal feces in the closet - I picked it up - it had been there a while. I will never stay here again. December 19, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Bennie846 Hotel need help I stay at the Sheraton SLC at least 2-3 times a month. It seems to me that this hotel is starting to need some help. I think it's time for some updating. The gym is in desperate need of updating. As in all service business you need to evolve or die. The restaurant breakfast service is still suffering. If they get a few customers at the same time they are overwhelmed. I hate to speak badly of this hotel. I love the staff. The people are great; they really know how to make you feel like family. I know that a hotel can only improve the facility when the corporate people give them the funds to do so. So please give the SLC Sheraton some money to update their property. Let's make it a property that everyone wants to stay at. March 7, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by mericasux Needs a remodel I was upgraded to a suite, which was not very impressive. I walked into a dark room as the switch near the door didn't work. After stumbling around for a few minutes using my cell phone as a flashlight, I was able to get a lamp turned on. The bathroom was VERY spacious, but felt empty, the shower and toilet were crammed into the corner, but I had enough room to dance in the center. The hotel layout is difficult to navigate, and the bar staff was inattentive. This was my 2nd stay, was giving it a second chance because of my loyalty to SPG, that won't happen again. October 19, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Oldschool Very rude The staff checking me in was very rude and not helpfull at all. I will never stay here again unless I can't find another hotel. June 26, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by raegan poor cleaning and maintenance service I hung a "green" tag on my door for the week, but it was as if it was a do not disturb sign- my room only got cleaned once. I had trouble getting into my door every single time. I changed keys out twice. Despite turning green, the lock would not disengage enough to open the door most times. Of course when I called and maintenance came up I was able to open it the first time so they said I just wasn't opening it right. REALLY? I've opened more than one hotel door in my life. It was really frustrating, especially when I was in a rush. Everything else was nice. October 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 Perfect Wedding Night hotel My Husband and I recently got married and stayed at the Sheraton in Salt Lake City for the night. The room numbers were labeled incorrectly on the wall, so it was kind of tricky to find our room, but it was well worth the search! The hotel upgraded us to their Presidential Suite because it was our wedding night! So worth it! I would DEFINITELY recommend this hotel. We paid $133/per night. Staff was nice and helpful and there is a free shuttle to the SLC Airport that leaves every 30 minutes. The hotel is 10-12 minutes from the Airport, which is always a plus. August 5, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by WF789 Noisy Room This hotel was renovated and it turned out well. The rooms are contemporary with flat screens and all seems well until I went to sleep. Apparently the furnace was probably still the original furnace and every time it turned on and off, it made a loud noise that woke me up. This was not noticeable during the day when it was noisier, but at night when everything was quiet, it was very obvious. The restaurant & bar are both so so, there are much nicer restaurants within walking distance. The courtesy shuttle around downtown and to the airport was a plus. May 14, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by DPN007 Avoid this hotel I checked in late, around 10 and was handed keys to a room where the AC was not functioning, the temp in the room was 87 deg and it took them 2 hours to give me a different. The excuse front desk had was that their AC system had broken down earlier - i would have expected them to tell me that at check in. Upon talking w/ other guests, they said their rooms were freezing. The front desk had no clue on how to handle the situation, couldn't find me a room for 2 hours and then somehow showed up with a key to a room directly opposite my initial room. July 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Lacemaker Don't use their restaurant The general staff and room were good,but don't use the hotel restaurant the waitress was slow, rude, disrespectful, and getting a check paid took over 30 minutes. Other than the waiter on Sunday Aug.4 morning shift the other waitstaff should at least get lessons in customer service, positive attitude, efficient ways to do their job properly. Or hire new staff for the restaurant. I was there with a group and many of us had the same problem with the same waitstaff. Your main hotel staff did a nice friendly job with smiles on their faces always. August 17, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Snoopy25000 Perfectly ok The location of the hotel is optimal. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was huge and immaculate. My only criticism: when I was waiting for the advertised airport shuttle on the curb of the airport, I waved at the driver and even made eye contact. He was literally 5 feet away from me, looking me in the eye as I waved and he just drove off. He could have stopped and said something but he just drove off. When I called the hotel, the woman said it would be another 30 minutes before he would return. I got a $29 cab. May 8, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LFVN4EVER Comfortable & Clean I was pleasantly surprised as soon as I opened the door. The beds/bedding exceeded other hotels. Our family was very comfortable and we were actually able to sleep all three nights we stayed. Starbucks coffee in the room! And downstairs! It was wonderful. The lobby, courtyards and parking were wonderful. The only downfall was the restaurant downstairs, it took over 1/2 hr to order and get one bowl of oatmeal and a waffle for the kids... and those two items were over $20. I will stay here again; however the restaurant I do not recommend. April 15, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by havebusinesswilltravel This is a mixed review So... After much consideration I am writing this review. First I have to say that I stay here all the time. Several times a month. I am generally satisfied, the property is nice, the bar is good, bartenders are nice. The one quality that makes this hotel second to none is T.C. in the club lounge. one year I was about 11 months between stays and she remembered me, my wife, our children, catered to our every whim. Get the club floor, she alone makes it worth it. That being said, I am only stays away from Platnum status at this point but I am currently gold. I was not offered an upgrade at check in. When I then asked for an upgrade to the club floor I was told and I quote "we dont have any club floor availability left tonight" Okay, so what do you have. I was upgraded to a loft room, with no club access. I checked on my computer and there were still club rooms left, I called down to question this and was told "Well, our general manager is trying to reel back on what we allow for upgrades based on corporate standards, because we are a franchise." I said, well I have been upgraded to club floor before with gold. I was told "yes, but we are not doing that anymore" Well, I feel pretty upset at this point, I was lied to at the front desk, and then told that the level of service I had expected was no longer being extended. Its only $30 to upgrade to club floor level but its the principal of the thing. I guess I will wait to hit platnum status for my beloved club floor. If it were not for the balance of good stays, and T.C. on the club floor this would have been a 1 star review... I hope T.C. is paid well. February 20, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by TonyW The resturant needs a lot of improvement Due to the cold weather and icy road condition, I decided not to venture out for food and instead ate at the hotel restaurant. Both nights I stood at the entrance waiting to be seated for over 5 minutes and there were not more than 5 tables of guests inside. The choice of food is poor, mostly sandwiches, hamburgers and salads. Only one type of steak was offered which to me is a big surprise for a Sheraton in the downtown area of a major US city. If it is not the weather, I would definitely not have any food in this hotel anymore. January 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Lax14 The hotel was nice, but lacking some things. Really enjoyed the hotel, but some staff were not very friendly. The front desk person acted like we were imposing when we asked him things. There was never a valet when we would return so we parked ourselves a distance from the door. Which normally wouldn't be a problem except I have a bad knee. The maid woke my children by knocking on the door every half hour starting at 8:30 until we put the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door the day we were checking out. On the other hand the Guest Service people were very nice and attentive. May 14, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by kjwcpm Facility and Service both need attention Overall this stay was an average bed for two average nights for a business trip. The room was clean and the bed generally comfortable. Amenities met my basic needs. Where things fell short were in check in service and in general facilities. At check in, there was a long queue (I was roughly 6th in line) with only one desk attendant available to check people in. The wait time was rather extensive, and after a long day of travel it was not the greeting I hoped for. As for the facilities, in general the hotel needs updating, but the flooring in particular is a concern. There is an overall odor of overperfumed treatment combined with a musty smell that give a hint of age to the property. If this can be upted the property can take on a much better status overall.

Might interest some of you:
This map shows all the piracy and armed robbery incidents reported to the IMB Piracy Reporting Centre during 2008.

That site focuses almost entirely on commercial piracy. Suggest noonsite and carribbean safety and security net are better sources for sailors to find areas where boardings are issues.
Cam, do you have links for those sites?

snake in garage
Last night I saw this snake in my garage, it was there for 30 min and ran away. 2 weeks back same type of snake i saw in my vegetable garden.
Please tell me is this poisnous or non poinous?
What I'm suppose to do, should i call pest control?
please help me.
Image link:
It's not the best image for a good identification, but it looks to be a common Garter snake, very common almost everywhere. You'll find them in assorted shades and stripes and even some patterns. Take a look a the images I've attached so that you can be the judge of whether it's a garter, or not.
If so, you'll be happy to know that garter snakes are harmless though I would not suggest that you handle one carelessly. All snakes can bite and may even cause minor infection. The saliva may be slightly toxic to small prey. Garter snakes are most noted for climbing trees and posts to get into birds' nests, and for rooting around for worms, toads, and frogs. Small rodents would be prey, too.
Here is a link that might be useful: Click here for images of garter snakes

Laurel Leaf Trim Punch
Mar 16, 2014
By Sue Walker
If you want an unusual look that can be used on either a male or a female page, this is it! Martha Stewart's punches are easy to use. There are extra wings that help you align the product so that you can have one continuous look. This look does remind me of the old Roman conquerers. It could be used for a toddler's page or even as a border to make a sport's page. It can be used even if you have arthritis in your hands. If you make a mistake, it's easy to throw the paper away because it's just cheap paper! But, with this type of design, if you accidently skip a space, it's easy to go back and align it to fill in the gap. This crafting tool is one of Martha's better punches in my opinion!

Beef grading explained
When USDA graders stamp carcasses, they estimate the eating experience for consumers and provide report cards for producers. They also measure cutability, or red meat yield. Most carcasses are graded, but very few qualify for the top of the USDA pyramid.

ABC's Z. Byron Wolf and Amy Walter report:
Rep. Paul Ryan will appear on prime time TV to give the official Republican response to President Obama's State of the Union next Tuesday.
Ryan is known as one of the GOP's chief wonks and big thinkers. He chairs the House Budget Committee since Republicans took control of the House this month and he wrote a much-quoted "Road For America's Future" which sets out a more sustainable path fiscal path for the U.S. Government. The selection of Ryan was made by the two top Republicans on Capitol Hill – House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
"Paul Ryan is uniquely qualified to address the state of our economy and the fiscal challenges that face our country," said Boehner in a statement. "We're broke, and decisive action is needed to help our economy get back to creating jobs and end the spending binge in Washington that threatens our children's future. I'm pleased that Paul will be outlining a common-sense vision for moving our country forward."
It is from the Budget committee hearing room that Ryan will give his address, further driving home the fact that Republicans now control the House and will pass a budget this year that seeks to limit government. One proposal released Thursday would curb government spending by $2.5 trillion over ten years.
A fiscal purist, Ryan is also young and energetic (and telegenic) and is probably a good choice to connect with viewers after the President's speech. President Obama travels next Wednesday, after the speech, to Wisconsin, a battleground state, where he will try to bring his message to Americans outside the beltway.
Ryan hails from Wisconsin, where Republicans picked up two Congressional seats in November as well as unseating long-time Democratic Senator Russ Feingold.
But there are dangers in the selection too.
His Roadmap is indeed a well-thought-out plan on how to secure the country's fiscal future. It is also full of political landmines. It would undo the current Medicare system for everyone under 55 and, starting in 20 years, give those people $11,000 government credits to buy health insurance on the open market instead of guaranteed fee-for-service benefits through the government under Medicare. Democrats attack this type of proposal as privatizing Medicare.
Similarly with Social Security, Ryan's plan would give people under the age of 55 the option of privately-run social security accounts. While Republicans will point to the added choice this gives citizens to do with their money what they choose, it is notable that President George W. Bush tried and failed to accomplish this when he had control of the House and Senate.
Here is a rundown of the good and the bad of the Ryan pick for the GOP:
Why they should have picked Ryan:
1. He is brainy and well-respected and has the most coherent and plan for fiscal discipline.
2. He is from Wisconsin and Obama will be traveling there the day after the State of the Union.
3. He is young and represents a new generation. Even though Ryan has been on Capitol Hill for 11 years, he was only 29 when he first took office. His youth could represent Republicans attempt to break out of the same old partisan fights that have held "our" generation hostage
4. Selecting a Congressman will remind everyone that President Obama doesn't get to call all the shots any more. He's got to get a GOP House to go along with him. Obama's owned the bully-pulpit these last few weeks, but the GOP needs to find a way to get the megaphone back
5. He is telegenic.
Why they shouldn't have picked Ryan:
1. His budget plan will be austere, to say the least and likely cut numerous government programs near and dear to individual voters and members of Congress.
2. His "Roadmap", separate from the Budget, would privatize social security and Medicare
3. Voters dislike Congress more than they dislike Obama and the selection of Ryan keeps the focus on Washington, DC. The last two Republican rebuttals were given out in the country by the governors of Louisiana and Virginia, respectively.
Speaking to these points, Don Stewart, spokesman for McConnell, said that people want action in Washington after the November election and Ryan will represent that.
"This is where it's going to get done," Stewart said. "People want us to actually do something. They want more than just talk."
And now that Republicans control the House, should be able to pass a budget that sends a strong message of fiscal restraint.

Basic Web site improvements would serve e-tailers a whole lot more than personalized offers and recommendations, according to a study.
Basic Web site improvements would serve e-tailers a whole lot more than personalized offers and recommendations, according to a study released by Jupiter Research (a unit of this site's corporate parent).
The analysis shows that only 14 percent of consumers say a personalized Web site leads them to buy more often from online stores. And just 8 percent say personalization makes them more apt to visit news, entertainment and content sites more frequently.
These low consumer responses are in direct contrast to the number of consumers who say they would visit a site more often or even buy more if the company made basic site improvements. Jupiter Research analysts found that 54 percent of respondents cited faster-loading pages and 52 percent cited better navigation as greater incentives.
|Which of the following features would make you
visit/patronize/buy more from a certain site?
|Pages load quickly
|Site was easy to navigate
|Ease of registration/check-out/login
|Pages are easy to read/not confusing
|Search function works well
|Ability to customize site to my needs
|Personalized offers/recommendations
|Source: Jupiter Research/Ipsos-Insight
"Most Web site personalization projects fail to deliver real business benefits," says Matthew Berk, research director at Jupiter Research. "Our industry has always assumed that a personalized Web site was a better one, both for the visitor and the site operator. Our research has found that this is not the case."
Berk says the report – "Beyond the Personalization Myth" – was a painful one to write because it undercuts so much "entrenched mythology" around site building. "It's our mental model of what the Internet should be," adds Berk. "It can be great to interact with customers in direct marketing and call centers – there the idea is brilliant and highly effective. But it doesn't mean it works on a Web site."
And Berk explains that it doesn't work there because people shopping online have a task to do – buy a pair of shoes, find the CD they've been waiting for or quickly find the book they need for next week's Book Club. Web sites often clutter up that process with personalized pop-up ads and recommendations for baby gifts when they just needed that one gift for their friend's baby shower the month before.
"In travel, a consumer generally knows where she wants to go by the time she gets to the site," says Berk. "In retail, more than 80 percent of the time, they already know what they want to buy by the time they get to the Web site. Just help them accomplish the tasks they arrived with."
Berk adds that the best thing a company can do for a consumer is make sure the site is easy to navigate; make consumer service telephone numbers easy to find; make sure search engines are top-of-the-line; and help people answer basic questions.
