We usually come here when transiting Sacramento. The rooms are clean and the staff is prompt and courteous. The local PD needs to clean up the area. This isn’t the hotel’s fault. The satellite TV reception is poor in the evening in Room 130. The wifi works well. We’ll stay here again.

LITERAL ROACH MOTEL. Large dead roach by toilet, live roach in bathtub, and live roaches in room by fridge and desk. White comforters covered in gross stains. Tweakers in the parking lot and dancing in the streets. It was late when I arrived but after roaches skittered around my feet I bailed and didnt stay the night, ended up sleeping in my car in a truckstop parking lot and still got a better sleep then I would have if I'd stayed. DO NOT BOOK HERE UNLESS YOU LIKE ROACHES, TWEAKERS AND MYSTERY STAINS.

Affordable but located in a part of town with many homeless roaming about. A bit rougher than expected. Safe for a layover or cheap bed but not a family place

The lady at the front was very pleasant and helpful. The staff were polite. The rooms were dirty, stains everywhere, towels are old and dirty. The bedsheets are old and dirty, the bathroom was dirty all three days of my stay. Maybe this is ok by Best Western standards. I would not recommend it.
