The Sterling Hotel

Overall the hotel was very charming and nice. The pillows were awful. The main issue was the hospitality and pleasantness of the front desk lady. Not very welcoming, not as helpful with parking, and just overall not very nice. For being a boutique hotel I expected a little more.

Pleasantly surprised. Room was a good size but bathroom could use more counter space. Need to provide bottled water in the rooms. Aside from that, it was a nice stay.

If you are a light sleeper this is not the hotel for you you’ll be woken up by loud creaking above you if you are not on the top floor. Also at least in my room the shower head had a lot of calcium and rust deposit built up in it. So showering wasn’t the most pleasant thing. Also me and my girlfriend realized that the bottom of the bathtub looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for a month or so. Cleanseness wasn’t the best but comfort was great! Minus the old floors and the creaking. Last thing is when I went to ask if they have a garage where I can park my car they seemed to butt around the question and just told me to park on the street and you won’t get a ticket. So I parked on the street after they said there was free parking on sunday but I ended up getting a ticket anyways. Nice quaint place in downtown sacramento, where you are close to everything. If you don’t care about any of the stuff I mentioned then sure it’s a great place but if I was asked to ever go back I wouldnt.

Huntington Suite was Amazing!!!

The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms are a bit dated - the jacuzzi tub is straight out of the early 1990s, the mattress was springy, all the fixtures were gold, and our faucet leaked. That said, it was a great location, the price was reasonable for the area, wifi was free, and there was a continental breakfast. Breakfast was extremely basic, cereal and toast and hardboiled eggs. But there was coffee, and instant oatmeal. For the budget-conscious traveler to downtown Sacramento, this is not a bad choice.
