Super 8 By Wyndham Sacramento

It's cheap, and the beds are clean, but the place is old and the rooms show their age. The pictures aren't accurate. The flooring is awful and felt dangerous, so watch where you walk. There was a pool, but nobody was allowed to use it. Outside, I saw needles and homeless people all over, so be especially careful with a pet. The breakfast room only had coffee, and there was no laundry room for long-term guests. The microwave is in the lobby, and the refrigerator froze everything, had very little space, and had broken door racks. The AC worked, which beats triple-digit heat. It felt like a drug central, and I was shocked Wyndham would have a place like this. There's a nicer Wyndham over the bridge, but it's pricey and sells out most nights. Be very careful.

We felt unsafe enough, including about our vehicle, that we checked out right away. When we arrived, we saw a man in front of the hotel aggressively stabbing a palm tree with a large knife. There were also numerous drug addicts hanging around the unsafe surrounding area. The hotel was dirty, and the smell of weed was all over the premises. It was an extremely disappointing stay, and I can't recommend it. Stay away for your safety and peace of mind.

The location is great, near the freeway and plenty of other places. The $200 deposit is a joke, though, and I still hadn't gotten it back two weeks after checkout. When I kept calling to ask about it, nobody at the desk picked up. My first room wouldn't let me back in right after I checked in and went to the store, so I had to switch rooms immediately. I saw at least one cockroach in the new room and took a photo. Then the heater stopped working completely. Priceline advertised complimentary breakfast, but there wasn't any.

I wouldn't stay here. Don't count on getting your deposit back after check-in. They kept saying they'd refunded me, but the full amount showed as a posted charge. They also kept charging my card $100 for the deposit instead of reversing it, so now my bank has to handle it. When I called, the manager yelled at me, called me ignorant and stupid for not understanding deposits and refunds, and hung up. Save yourself the trip and go to Motel 6 or somewhere else.
