If I could give this hotel a negative rating it would be negative 10 stars! I am a resident of Tooele, and my kids came to visit me for Thanksgiving. Since Tooele is always encouraging us to support our local businesses I thought I would recommend to my kids to stay there. It has been restored and looks nice inside. My kids and two of their friends called for a rate and found it acceptable. When they arrived a very inappropriate man, which I believe is the owner told them that it was weird to ask for two double beds and a rollaway. He refused to let them stay. I believe because one of their friends was Hispanic, and the other was African American. I intend on making this very public, since no one will say anything. Kirk Hotel, you will be getting a call from the ACLU. I don't understand how you can make a profit out of such actions. Oh, and be careful, he has a very threatening dog in the lobby. Having lived in Las Vegas and working at some of the finest hotels in the world, I would never turn people away based on race. Shame on you! Asking for two double beds and a rollaway is not a weird request for a hotel!
