Stay somewhere else
The check in process was easy but the environment is very unsafe. First room was next to a room where the guests were fighting. Got a second room and the noise was plenty. This seems like a residential area rather than a hotel.

Lovely stay
Our stay at this hotel was wonderful. The beds were comfy the room was clean and there were NO bugs. It’s in walking distance to everywhere we wanted to visit, discovery park, downtown and old Sacramento. Very nice place and for a good price.

Nice weekend
Nice stay, comfortable beds. Weird smell in the rooms, breakfast wasn't very appetizing and ran out before ending time. Neighborhood felt a little sketch but not bad for the price paid.

Stayable 😂♥️
Two day family stay. Housekeeping lacks a bit but the overall stay was good. Definitely not somewhere I’d stay again due to the heavy traffic. To each is own but not for my kiddos.
I say it’s clean breakfast is good and rooms are somewhat cozy.
