The room overall was clean. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast was what you expect for a continental breakfast. Area is okay. The parking lot could be cleaner. When I walked into the room it did have an enclosed, musky, dusty smell to it. The shower was hard to open and the telephone was not working. Overall it’s a good deal for what I paid.

Worked out for a 1-night stay. Property meets expectations for rating. Staff was welcoming, areas were kept clean. Breakfast could have been a little more, but no complaints.
Bike path on the Sacramento Riverfront. Downtown, mIdtown, safe clean . I will come again.

We stopped here for a night and didnt expect much. You get what you pay for.
PROS: Staff was friendly. Refrigerator and microwave in room work efficiently. Bed was clean and comfortable to sleep in. Breakfast is complimentary. The facility offers gym, pool, and hot tube.
CONS: TV didnt work. Wifi was not available unless you are Wyndham's member, which we were not. I found hair and bug in the bathroom. Some guy were screaming at 1 am and we could hear noises outside the room throughout the night. The area is little suspicious.
Our stay at this hotel was wonderful. The beds were comfy the room was clean and there were NO bugs. It’s in walking distance to everywhere we wanted to visit, discovery park, downtown and old Sacramento. Very nice place and for a good price.
Please don’t travel here with older people or children. Service staff is not friendly. We started with 1/4 roll of toilet paper and at night before bed when we realized there was no backup roll (and basically no amenities) we called the lobby and they said we could come get one from the lobby. This hotel is comprised of multiple buildings that are not really close to the lobby. At 9:30pm as a single female I am not walking to the lobby given the people that were loitering in the area. The free breakfast is mediocre and the poor woman could not keep up in refilling the basics like coffee and cereal. I think all of that could have been overlooked had the staff just been friendly. I have a feeling management is either “checked out” or off site.
We've been here over a week now and it's been quiet. Haven't had any problems I've come in late no riff Raff going on the security is really good out here

You get what you pay for. Clean rooms, convenient location right beside freeway and river trail. Other guests are a mixed bag, some look like they live there... not going to say I wasn't worried about my car overnight. But there is security around all night.
Staff seemed a bit overwhelmed. Breakfast has powdered eggs but it was enough food to get going.
If you can handle "a little rough around the edges", this is for you.
