Howard Johnson by Wyndham Sacramento Downtown

Room was comfortable enough for our single night stay.

Liked: Comfortable bed; nice hot shower; close to food.
Disliked: Our initial room was smoked in and even once we were moved the second room smelled as well.

I would stay again.

Liked: Good, free breakfast.
Disliked: We were supposed to have two beds but our room had one, but they fixed it and moved us with no haste.

The employees were very friendly and helpful.

Liked: The room was very clean and smelled good.
Disliked: Outside our door was a large bag of garbage.

Overall, a good place to stay the night if it's a stop on a road trip, but you're not really close to anything of walking distance. Check-in was flawless and the complimentary breakfast was a continental breakfast as advertised. Bagels, fresh fruit, cereal and waffles. It works for me.

Liked: Close to boat ramp on Sacramento River.
Disliked: No room to park truck with boat trailer. Lack of restaurants within walking distance.

Disappointed

Liked: I was assaulted by a squatter, and drug addict abeed asghar, who didn't have a room and security failed to monitor parking lot, and I was attacked and my car vandalized, damaged and my room needed maintenance and never received
Disliked: Better security attention to maintenance and no squatter parking lot activity

Very good

Liked: Very friendly staff, very clean and well kept. We enjoyed our nice cup of coffee and muffins. It was filled with a variety of breakfast items.
Disliked: The location was the only thing we didn’t like. A little busy outside the building..

This is not a environment...

Disliked: I felt unsafe at this location. There where 7 to 10 homeless to the entrance of the parking lot and one of the older was urinating in a cup. Plus they were entering the parking lot. When ask about the homeless entering the parking lot. The employee said the have armed security. I did not say or check in. It wasn't worth the $120 to possibly get my vehicle broken into on a long trip.

Passable

It was nice

Pleasant

Dirty rooms not well maintained

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: Not clean

Please refund $118 for the...

Liked: If refund is solved, I will changed my review to positive. Arrived, couldn't enter the room (tech issues with the key) and unsafe neighborhood made me go to a different hotel and paid another $200. Booking.com has elevated the refund request. The property kept saying to call booking.com, while booking.com said that the hotel is responsible for the refund. The day receptionist Mr. Fasial is nice!
Disliked: NOT able to open the room door, the magnetic key card didn't work for #331. Being reassigned to #231 would not solve the issue of the strong clorox smell coming from the jacuzzi / swimming pool right there. Unsafe neighborhood (homeless population next door). Despite 3 attempts to talk to the manager Gutpreet, she wasn't available.

Very good

Liked: Everything was fine until check out
