I found Rodeway Inn Sacramento-University Area to be a budget-friendly option for my stay, and while it met my basic needs, there were significant downsides. The staff was generally friendly and accommodating, but the cleanliness of my bathroom left a lot to be desired. Although the location is convenient, the overall experience was average at best, and I might consider other options next time.

I had a mixed experience at the Rodeway Inn Sacramento-University Area. The staff was friendly and helpful, which I appreciated, but the location wasn't the best and there was noticeable noise from the highway. My room was generally clean and spacious, though I did encounter some cleanliness issues that could be improved. Overall, it serves its purpose for an affordable stay, but it has its drawbacks. 😊

Rooms

The room I stayed in was spacious and mostly clean, but there were some cleanliness issues I encountered, like hair in the tub and on the linens. Despite that, the bed was fairly comfortable, and I appreciated the temperature control.

Location

The hotel is near the freeway, which is convenient if you have a car, but the surrounding area feels a bit rough. I found it difficult to walk to nearby places due to the highway layout and didn’t feel entirely safe at night.

Dining

5.0

There was coffee available in the lobby, but no breakfast offerings. It would be nice to have more dining options within walking distance, as the nearby fast-food outlet required crossing a busy intersection.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel has a pleasant pool and secure parking, though I didn’t use the parking facility. It was nice to have Wi-Fi that worked well throughout my stay.

I had a pleasant stay at the Rodeway Inn Sacramento-University Area. The check-in process was a breeze, thanks to Ashika at the front desk who recognized my previous visits. My room was clean and comfortable, although there were a few hiccups like the lack of in-room coffee and just one shampoo provided for my entire stay. However, I appreciated the vending machines and ice machines available on both floors.

My stay at Rodeway Inn Sacramento-University Area was a mixed bag. The staff was friendly and check-in was quick, which I appreciated, but the neighborhood had its fair share of issues and my room had some cleanliness concerns. Overall, the affordability seemed to be the best perk, considering I was in a pricey area.

Rooms

The location was not great; it felt a bit unsafe with the urban environment and visible issues like litter and some unsavory activity nearby. I wouldn't walk around alone at night. However, it was close to the light rail, which was a plus.
