The Home2Suites and the Tru are two halves of the same hotel. Yes, it's a bit confusing... but we figured it out.
Talk about location, location, location... Opposite the best pizza place in town, just across the Courtyard hotel car park from the best sushi in Ogden and steps from historic 25th street and Union Station. If you choose your room well, you will even get a view of the beautiful Wasatch mountains.
In all honesty, we used to live in Ogden and I never needed a place to stay, but having stayed in another Home2 before I thought I knew what I was getting - and I was right. The building is just a couple of years old, so everything is shiny and new. The people are lovely and the brekkie is great with lots to choose from. We didn't use the gym or pool, but they looked nice.
The rooms have pretty much everything you need. Soap, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion in the bathroom. Nice towels. Large vanity to put all your stuff.
The room had acres of storage space. Cupboards and drawers galore. The kitchen has a small apartment fridge (but larger than under the counter), standard size microwave above the sink and plates, water glasses, cups, cutlery etc. You might find all of that stuff hiding in the dishwasher. They seem to wash everything - every time.
Niggle: I really despise those awful coffee makers with the pouch coffee. Please give us a pod or an old fashioned Mr. Coffee... (pretty please).
The one star deduction is for the noisy neighbors - not the noise per se. The folks weren't playing loud TV or music, they were really just conversing a bit loudly, but something about the wall where it connected to the outside wall wasn't right (like the insulation or drywall didn't go all the way to the outside wall) and we could hear everything they said... until 1am. That said, if we needed a place to stay in Ogden I'd definitely come back here, I'd just pick a different room. read more
