6.6/10

My stay at the hotel was mixed. The location was great for walking or scootering to Old Sac, and it was centralized to many Sacramento attractions, but the room was really small compared to others at a lower price. Additionally, having to pay an extra $40 for parking was a downside. The noise from the street and freeway traffic outside was quite bothersome.
