Location was amazing and the area walkable. The food and drink on property were super overpriced and mediocre at best. Fees and added surcharges were a bit over the top and the parking very expensive. Would probably look somewhere else first next time, but the location really is amazing.

This is an old hotel with limited dining facilities. The rooms don't have safes and not all rooms have refrigerators. However, the hotel staff is very accomodating so that made our stay enjoyable. Also, the hotel is in a perfect location, next to Old Sac, the Golden One Center, and many stores. It is also next to the freeways so you can get easily get around the city.
