Looking for a place to crash in brighton

Have you guys considered renting some cheap hotel rooms? I came out to utah for spring break like 5 years ago, me and 3 others all stayed in a hotel 6 downtown together and it was like 15 bucks a night each. You guys could pile like 5 of you in one room and it'd be mad cheap. Definitely something to consider.

Yeah, hotels in Salt Lake are dirt cheap as long as you're not looking for anything beyond a bed (and since you're willing to sleep on the floor Ill go ahead and make that assumption).

I used to come out here on spring break and we'd pack 3-5 of us into the La Quinta or Best Western in Midvale/Sandy. Would come out to $20ish/person per night and they'd usually have some sort of free breakfast in the AM so you'd have that cost savings as well.

problem with brighton is... there arent many people who live up there and lodging is severely limited. Theres on hotel, maybe 30 rooms? Then maybe 10 little cabins up at the resort, some more down a few miles in silverfork, but i only know a couple of people who live there.  The majority of us live in Salt Lake City and make the drive.

a lot of people i know stay at the la quinta.

it's cheap, relatively close to the base of the canyons (take a right out of the parking lot and follow that road til you get to brighton about 25-35 min later,), cheap, decent hot tub, lots of places to eat around there (lonestar taqueria, in and out burger, some really good brewpubs, etc...)

if you want to go downtown, there is a trax station (light train) that runs right by the la quinta too, easy to get there and back if you dont' want to drive.

if it were me, i would stay here. sorry i don't have room for you to crash, but i live downtown anyway and it sounds like you all want to be close to the canyons for cheap. this is your best bet that i know of.
