Being that it was already 9pm, we didn’t want to run the risk that this would take until the wee hours of the morning and it would turn our hotel room into an icebox.

Knowing that there was no way this was going to get fixed within the hour, I pulled out my phone and started to see if there were any other Marriott properties that were close by. “Within the hour, I’ve already called the power company and they will have it fixed shortly. Being that it was snowing outside, I immediately knew that this wouldn’t be a problem that was going to be fixed in short order, so I asked if they had any updates. Two young women with a box of flashlights were manning the front desk for guests, offering them up as a way to navigate the dark hallways. ZAP!Īfter our dinner we came back to the hotel and the lights were completely shut off. Welcome to our Salt Lake City experience.Īs we wrote about a short while back, the hotel that we chose to spend the first night of our Utah adventure in the moderately priced Fairfield Inn and Suites Downtown Salt Lake City. The phones don’t work and the light on your cell phone is your only way to find the exit. All of a sudden the lights go out and power has been cut to the entire hotel. Imagine that you get to your destination, check in, freshen up, and you’re lounging around your hotel room in your pajamas, relaxing before bed. Posted By Jon Nickel-D'Andrea on | 3 comments
