Compared to other facilites in the area for the pricing, governors was clean and offered a varied breakfast buffet. Lots of parking available. Comfortable rooms and clean. Only thing is it's really close to the highway and a block behind it are lots of homeless people, so I wouldn't feel safe going out at night. Other than that, nice stay for the price. About 1 mile from Old Sacramento.
