"The care the staff show makes a difference. I was asked what brought us to town and I told them I was here celebrating my birthday. The receptionist excused herself and came back shortly saying that they would like to upgrade us to a suite for my birthday! That was such a nice thing to do, and they've earned a customer for life. There were so many things to do and see in Sacramento that I want to keep coming back. The hotel is older, but it is kept up and has what you need. There is a hot tub, pool, gym, and free continental breakfast. The ladies working the breakfast room were all smiling and wanting to help you find what you wanted and were making waffles for anyone who wanted them. Everyone there just seemed happy to be there for you. The bed was perfect. Not too soft, not a flimsy mattress. It was the first time I've been able to sleep in a hotel bed. It also had the most reasonable price in the area. I'm completely satisfied with my stay. Thanks to everyone who made it that way. "
