The shower floor kept bubbling when I showered, which caused me to lose my balance. I also didn't appreciate having a security officer ask me for my room number when I entered the lobby for a cup of hot tea.

The hotel is in walking distance to Old Sacramento. We stayed on the third floor and had a nice river view. The price was great and the breakfast was simple but good. Unfortunately the Wifi did not work at all for me, not even in the lobby.

Scary Location

We arrived, but based on the neighborhood, did not check in. We were willing to forfeit our full price deposit rather than risk leaving our car in the parking lot overnight.

This property is old and tired. It was clean enough, but our shower did not work and we did not discover this till morning before we were leaving. There seem to be many homeless/ and or panhandlers hovering in the area and security has to monitor those who let themselves in to the lobby and breakfast area. Very disappointing.
