The new Value Place hotel is the first extended-stay facility in West Haven, a city of 6,000 people incorporated in 1991. "Any time you get something like this it helps people in the city," said West Haven Planning Commission Chairman Phil Green, citing the need for a hotel where people can live for a week or so at a time while working with Ogden-area businesses. "We haven't had anything like that."
Value Place's new 124-room, 45,000-square-foot hotel at the intersection of I-15 and Wilson Lane joins Value Place's premier Utah outpost in American Fork (located at the intersection of I-15 and W. Main Street) and paves the way for many more locations: Value Place is planning to bring a third online this spring in West Valley City and a total of four more will be added during the next decade, said Gina McKee, Value Place vice president of franchise development.
"The Value Place brand is gaining a foothold in Utah because consumers -- whether they are business travelers or families on vacation -- crave an economical place to stay without sacrificing quality," McKee told Mike Gorrell of The Salt Lake Tribune.
