Excellent hotel while attending a concert at the Thunder Valley event center. The staff was consistently courteous and friendly. However, for the steep room charge, I was surprised that there was artwork missing above one of the two beds--the hooks to hang the missing painting were still visible. The bathroom was beautiful, but the shower gel dispenser was broken and wouldn't dispense, and its plastic cover would not stay on. The room was otherwise comfortable.

Rooms exceeded expectations!

I was only there for an overnight business trip, so I stayed just the one night. The rooms were recently renovated, the hotel is connected to the casino, plenty of restaurants, bars, entertainment, etc. I stayed on the 5th floor that was recently renovated and it was of course pristine and done right. Definitely, my next hotel when I’m back in the Sacramento area.
