The room was terrible, found a small cockroach under the sink, mattress was uncomfortable. The shower was another issue the spout did not work, long hair in the shower which was slow drain so you had to shower in standing water. Trash right outside our room. I would suggest staying anywhere but here. Try at your own risk. If it wasn’t so late and not refundable, I would have gone elsewhere. After all this, wasn’t going to attempt to check out the free breakfast. Left as early as possible the next morning.

The room, layout, and price were great. The older facility could use a touch up. It doesn't take a lot of work to just touch up paint and fill areas that the molding Has Come away from the wall, etc. That would make a huge difference.One light bulb didn't work and another lamp didn't work at all. Again they seem like small things but all added up does make a difference. Overall very acceptable. I would stay again. The Mexican tile detail looks really nice.

Normally I don’t even leave reviews, but our stay here was so terrible so I thought others should know. The entire reason we booked this hotel, was because it had a pool and hot tub, the hot tub wasn’t working and the pool was freezing. Lots of sketchy characters around the property, also it’s a motel, not a hotel. The door key was half broken and wouldn’t let us into our own room half the time. We had the get the front of house staff to open our door on multiple occasions. Breakfast was pretty subpar, and seating is cramped. Also The lights in the room are blinding iredescent bulbs, felt more like a hospital than a bedroom. Would not return, also Sacramento is gross.
