I don’t usually write reviews but this Inn was very impressive, and the owners are the nicest people who care about their visitors. They have the cutest little dog that greets you when checking in, and the process is so smooth and seamless. The rooms were clean, and as someone who had to stay for a night, I felt extremely safe and well taken care of.

The room was clean and comfortable. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The site is quiet and safe thanks to the parking lot security gate. Plenty of channels on TV and a great welcoming crew (Charlie the adorable little dog). The area of town has plenty of food places and quick access to Old Sac or Downtown Sac.

Ac was set at 74 and could only be adjusted by staff. A little outdated. Staff was beyond friendly and the price was great! Not a luxary stay, but served the purpose and we definately got our $100 worth that we paid for the room. Would definately stay there again in the same situation. Maybe not ideal with children, but more than enough for my hubby and I🙂🙃

The room was very clean. Bed was comfortable. Check in service was quick and easy. Very nice lawn behind the motel that stretches down to the river. It is a basic hotel, not luxury, but totally adequate. One downside was that when we went for the free Continental breakfast at about 9:00, there was virtually nothing left. No coffee at all, no juice, a few stale donuts. We walked out. I would have expected the staff to monitor the breakfast better.

The property is older, but what I was looking for - a clean, quiet place. I came to to see an A's game and the location is within walking distance of the stadium. It was also close enough for me to walk to the state capitol building and Old Sacramento (albeit a longer walk of about 3 mi). The staff was super friendly and related the history of the local area and W. Sacramento. Was cool to hear that scenes from the movie \"Bad Grandpa\" were filmed on site! I'd stay here again.

An old-fashioned motor hotel, but safe, clean, well-kept and well cared for. This is within walking distance to the stadium and is easily the best of this type of hotel in the area. Gas, food, grocery shopping nearby. Convenient to freeways but not too close. Nice management.
Perfect for travelers on a budget who don't want to pay for the newest, sleekest rooms but want a quiet, clean place to stay.

The staff is so friendly, they were really helpful with us checking in late at night and giving me extra pillows and towels. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the hotel as we were attending an event for the whole day, so it was perfect for a decent shower and sleep. It’s a quick drive downtown too, 10 min only. The hotel is not renovated, though.

The staff was great, however Charlie the dog greeted me at the counter and sat on my form I was trying to fill out. I love dogs, but the person didn’t even try to get the dog off the counter! I had read that the toweled were very old stained and rough, but I thought surely they have changed them! Nope! I didn’t even take a shower because the towels were so bad. The room was clean, but the sheets were SUPER old, grandma flowered ones.

The inn offered me one of the most unique experiences: this family-owned facility provided a warm and welcoming vibe that comes with excellent service, well-maintained rooms, and comfortable beds. I especially like the owners' dogs: they are adorable. There is electrical fencing at the yard entrance, which makes the stay much safer. The beds are very comfortable, but please make sure to bring your shampoo and hairdryer. Overall, this facility is nice and a great place to stay for what it costs.

The folks running the motel are very nice, and I wanted to like the property, but the towels were thin, threadbare and gray with age. The mattress was okay but not covered with bedbug prevention, had a thin protector that came off, and the sheets were old and ill fitting. No luggage rack or table lamps, just harsh overhead lights. The carpet was stained, the furniture rickety. The bathroom appeared to have some new floor and shower tiles and was reasonably clean.

This place is family run and operated. They are very kind and attentive. I was allowed to check in 4 hours early so my kids could get a nap before dinner! The room was clean and comfortable.

While the gate around the property was nice, and Staff was nice as well. The room itself was pretty disgusting… found dead ants all over the bathroom. The sheets looked disgusting as they were torn and had some questionable stains. The people next to us were smoking outside of our door and talking very loudly at 3am… making it hard to sleep. Overall expected way better from here as the motel had great ratings, would have preferred at staying at a Motel 6.

Get what you pay for; it's economical

The owner is very nice, and it's a sweet sort of family compound, or compound of families? But the bed is meh, the room is dingy and hot, the AC not controllable and noisy and so-so, the room is supposed to be nonsmoking and while it is, people are smoking outside of the room so it was a terrible smell and hard for me to breath. The sheets were microfiber and OK, the towels paper thin, there was no soap and not enough towels. You get what you pay for and I knew this would not be deluxe. But it felt pretty icky. The chairs were horrible to sit in. There was a flea in the bed. I appreciate that there is installed a metal gate which provides some safety to the compound particularly as there are kids playing inside. Again, the owner is clearly very sweet and trying hard. It's just pretty down at the mouth.
