The property is beautiful and historic but there were a number of things that contributed to me having a negative experience. For starters, the limited onsite staffed hours meant communication was via SMS which is slow and costly when you're an overseas traveller. Second, was a lack of hot water during my stay. On checking out they said I needed to let it run 5-7 minutes to come through which in a dry state is a waste of precious water. Thirdly, the plug in the bathroom didn't work. Fourthly, one of the curtains was secured at each corner of the window but sagged in the middle illuminating the room at night. Sloppy presentation like that reflects poorly on the business. Finally, the WiFi was difficult to connect to and there was no onsite support. Not a venue I would recommend.

Magnificent Interior Design and Spacious Rooms
The hotel is in an amazing old building, in keeping with the area and historical nature of Sacramento, if slightly eccentric in its interior design. Our room was magnificent with high ceilings, antique-looking furniture, lots of space and comfort. The in-room hot tub was modern and worked -- it was a great and memorable stay! There's no front desk clerk and no breakfast or other services to be seen. Parking is not particularly convenient and costs. So, it worked for me, but is not "full service" if that is what you need.

I was able to find a parking space in front of the hotel luckily. It is metered parking. There was a large very loud group of guests out in the courtyard which is right downstairs from where my room is. I could clearly hear them from the third floor. The room is outdated. And the floor was actually sloping to one side, which you could clearly feel when you got into the bed. There was a broken outlet on the wall. The HDMI was plugged into the wrong port on the TV so I had to fix that to get it to work. Went downstairs for a snack in the morning and the common area was not clean, and there were no real snacks left as other guests had made a mess and taken everything. Overall, it was comfortable. Outside there are quite a few homeless people around. It is very close to downtown.

I loved the rooms and vibe of the hotel. I loved the history of it. They need to do a better job advertising their beautiful bathrooms! Girls if you like to soak in tubs book here! I only had a few small issues. Check in was a little different and rushed. At first it was fine, staff was still polite, however once the staff left (literally handed me the keys on the way out the door,) there was no staff to man the place. I wanted a stopper for the tub in my room and I couldn't get one. Also the TV was not working. There was literally no one of grounds to even talk to about the small issues. Even when I checked out there was no one. I would stay here again because of the features, affordability, and location but the service was disappointing.

10/10, would love to stay here again
We got to stay in the Hopkins Suite on the third floor. The hotel was absolutely stunning and a short walk to some great restaurants. Very easy to check in and out. Friendly staff. Coffee pods, creamer and sugar were available downstairs for the Keurig in our room. Huge shower/spa in our bathroom and the bed was incredible and so comfortable. Best sleep I've had while traveling.

Loved the hotel! Old Victorian house with tons of charm. Our room was in the back of the house, so it was quiet. Only complaint was the metered street parking. We paid over $5 for two hours this morning, but parking is limited to 5 hours max. Otherwise, you can park down the street in a paid lot. Not sure what their rate was. Otherwise, very charming.

I can't remember the gals name that was so patient with me throughout check-in haha. I was all over the place. Just got off my almost 3hr road trip. They were texting me keeping me updated the whole time. Made sure to give me a kind text while i was on my way home. Don't get me started on the cuteness and spacious room my friend and i had. Omg what a dream! Definitely going to book all my next stays here. 1. Great area 2. Might see a wedding go down 3. Nice quiet rooms for busy city mornings 4. Plenty of mirrors 5. Last but not least GREAT STAFF! <3

Nice place to stay close to the train station.
The room was nice as was the location, but be aware, this is a popular wedding venue and there can be loud music. This one ended a little after 10:00pm so it was good after that.
