The place was very clean and enjoyable. They do charge $29/day for valet parking which is the only off street parking they offer. It wasn’t clear when signing up. Also the street noise was loud but we were able to sleep with earplugs and it lessened in the early morning hours. I think they should had installed double pane windows. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms had hug quality furnishings and bathroom features (example- lovely shower tile and heavy glass doors). Felt well made and elegant. The bedding was very smooth. Chair and ottoman were great. The room layout is a bit awkward. Give it an A- for the price. Street noise only brings it down from A

It was a great value for what we got. Updated clean room, comfy bed, free coffee and tea in the lobby, nice roof top lounge area. It wasn’t the close to everything but we didn’t mind.

Just left after a 4 night stay while moving our son to Berkeley for law school. Great hotel. Extremely nice, pleasant, and friendly staff. Room was great - clean, comfortable mattress and pillows, and super effective AC. Would definitely recommend it. A+.

Very nice hotel for the price! The room had everything we needed. We were in a corner room overlooking the intersection so it was a little loud but they thoughtfully provided a white noise gadget that really helped! I like the double blinds that keep the light out too. Very friendly staff and we easily found parking nearby on the street. Their recommendations for food nearby are good but there’s also Creekwood for weekend brunch or dinner. Excellent! Just down Sacramento…

Exceeded our expectations!

We were very impressed with the service, comfort, decor, amenities and value of the Aiden hotel! The staff was friendly, helpful, kind and responsive to our questions and needs (e.g. what bus to take where, requests for more towels). Having coffee/ hot drinks and cold water available at all times was a real plus, not to mention bikes and bike helmets! Would stay again and feel lucky to have found it. The perfect small hotel with a great staff! Thank you, especially to the night manager who was gracious and very accommodating.

Parking required giving the desk clerk our keys so he could park our car. That was a little odd. The room was comfortable and cozy. The “balcony with beverages”was just a rooftop patio with no chairs. The beverage cart was empty and set aside. It looked like it wasn’t used recently so that was disappointing.
