Absolutely not worth the price. The lobby is pleasant and gives you hope, but once inside the rooms the "ambience" changes drastically. Room is small and cramped. Very musty odor. Carpet was not vaccuumed well and fabric bench seat badly stained. Needs paint and updating. Had to slam door to get it to shut. Full-size beds only for two-bed rooms and stall showers only -- had to close bathroom door to even get to the shower door and floor had chips from cracked tile grout. Even though it was a no smoking room, table outside the room had an ashtray, as did all adjacent outdoor tables so I absolutely did not feel comfortable opening sliding glass door. One upside -- free parking. Would not stay again.

The manager was kind of a jerk when we asked if it was possible for an early check-in. Other than that, the staff was nice. I was surprised at how quiet the place was after reading other reviews on TripAdvisor. The bed was really great, so I told the front desk when I checked out. They told me that it was a new bedding package they recently added. I like the hotel's location because it's near a lot of gay clubs, coffee shops, restaurants, and mid-town sites. The hotel itself was a bit dirty, but nothing terrible. There was mold in the shower.

After reading some of the less recent reviews, I felt a little uneasy about this hotel. If I had paid full price, I would not be happy, but I got a deal, and probably got what I paid for, This hotel is in downtown Sacramento, which itself can seem a little shady at night. I thought of Nancy Reagan refusing to live at the Governor's Mansion ( just across the street from this hotel) and I thought , well it is not as bad as all that, but I kind of saw her point. ! However, I did ask for a rod to jam the sliding glass door. The public rooms were fine, but my room was not so fine - dirty upholstery, and carpet looked seedy. But beds were okay, bathroom was fine and staff friendly. Needs sprucing up, or alternatively can slide downhill. Oh and air conditioning did not work.

Uneventful is the best way to describe this place, which a good thing for a business traveler.

The room may not have fancy fixtures or expensive furniture like other more expensive places, but what it has works fine and the room's clean.

The central AC blower turns on and off on high speed which may be a nuisance to some. If it was constant it wouldn't be as much an attention getter. I turned up the temperature so it would only operate on the contant slow speed which was inaudible.

Yes, there's a night club across the back of the hotel and it is LOUD from the Holiday Inn parking lot (the 2 motels share part of th parking lot and look like they have the same owners). This was on Saturday night when I was there. However, I didn't hear anything once I got inside my room. The walls are soundproof! I stayed in a room that was near the center of the hotel.

Anyways, i had a good night's sleep and checkout time is noon!
