The airport shuttle only starts at 6am but my flight left at 6:30am. I booked the hotel because of the shuttle and then I’m not sure if it was because it was an early uber, the signs in the room for safety saying it is not fully safe spot in town but I was made uneasy standing outside for the uber (came back and stood in the door) and having to give a code when I was picked up. Comfortable though and quick check in etc.

Governor’s Inn was a great place for an overnight stay after a late arrival in Sacramento. The hotel is clean and staff were friendly. It feels a bit outdated and is located near a busy road which was occasionally noisy during the night. Overall a great place to crash for a night.

Limited parking. The whole floor smelled like marijuana. The beds were super high (and I am tall) and hard as a rock. Thin, hard pillows. No facecloths. And too many harsh chemicals used to clean the floors and elevator. I literally held my breath while in the elevator.
