Great location, kind of pricey
It was in a very convenient location for the concert I attended at Folsom field and easy to find. It was the perfect size for a solo traveler like me. Both of the front desk clerks I met were very nice! Check-in and check-out were super easy. The inn itself was quiet, there was just a little noise from the nearby bars and normal noises you encounter close to a place with night life. The one thing that was slightly uncomfortable about the room was that the air conditioner seemed to push out humid air that didn’t seem as cold as the temperature setting I had it on. It wasn’t terrible but it did get kind of muggy at times. The price was kind of high, when I booked it I thought it was because of the quality but now I’m assuming it was due to the concert in the area this weekend. I wanted something walkable but after researching dates for potential future stays I was kind of disappointed to find out it was triple the price it normally is. Due to this I didn’t feel the quality matched the price. So I ended up paying way more just for convenience. I should have looked into that more before booking. The shower was very nice and I loved that the toilet was a dual flush to save water.

Easy walk to campus or Pearl Street and everything in between. We were upgraded to a suite and had a separate room with a couch, TV, and desk, which is perfect if you need to get some work done. The room was comfortable and had all the amenities we needed for the week. Would absolutely stay here again considering its affordability and location.

Don’t stay here
The hotel really is a dump. It hadn’t been cleaned or vacuumed properly. There was no daily cleaning service. It didn’t have sober shampoo in the dispensers. Had to ask for toilet paper and Something to put the toilet paper on because the unit in the wall was missing parts So it didn’t work

The property is a Motel not a Hotel. The a/c barely worked. We ran it 24/7 on the lowest temp we could and still felt warm. The bathroom window would not open all the way and would not close all the way. The handle was a crank type and was broken off. The plug in the bathroom did not work. The body wash ran out mid shower. As much as they charge you would think they could maintain the property better. It is definitely not worth the price.
