Ivanka Trump might be plugging all of her father's monstrous luxury hotels all over the world, but when her flight got cancelled in Salt Lake City, she humbly spent the night at the Quality Inn. Page Six reports:

Meanwhile, she flew commercial to Aspen last weekend for the Annual Food & Wine Classic, but had an unexpected one-night layover in Salt Lake City due to storms. She slept at the Quality Inn and ate at Little Caesars for dinner with her $18 stipend from the airline.

Here's what she says:<blockquote><p>I was disappointed in this Marriott. Having stayed at various Marriott Hotels throughout the world, I expected more. Sure, it was clean and the employees were nice, but it was shabby.
