About this property

Welcome to Main Street Motel

Main Street Motel is a budget-friendly option situated in a low-key neighborhood on South Main Street in Salt Lake City. The area offers a casual atmosphere with dive bars nearby, the minor league Smith’s Ballpark, and the Jordan River Parkway for outdoor walks. This setting may appeal to visitors seeking affordable accommodations without the frills of a full-service hotel.

The motel offers essential amenities such as Wi-Fi and parking but does not include facilities like a pool, restaurant, or fitness center. This simplicity aligns with the property’s straightforward approach, catering primarily to guests looking for basic lodging rather than extensive on-site services.

Guest feedback is mixed, with an overall rating of 2.6 from 187 reviews. However, the neighborhood scores higher as a convenient stay location for exploring local spots. Popular nearby attractions include Temple Square, the Natural History Museum of Utah, and the Utah State Capitol, all easily accessible by car. The Salt Lake City International Airport is about a 13-minute drive away, which adds to the motel’s practical location for travelers.
