Holiday Inn Express Sacramento Convention Center

The check in process was fast and the attendee was nice and accommodating while the room was clean and the bed was comfortable, but the local markets and scenery was kind of a distance away, well not walking distance anyways.

checked in late, like 3 am late, front desk person was professional and congenial. Walked me to the parking spot closest to the entry of my room. Hotel is dated, sink didn't drain well in the kitchenette area, construction going on and their construction workers were rude and unpleasant to several guests, as well as blocking open parking in the tight lot when they could have used one space. Breakfast was nice, good variety, fresh and space was clean. Wifi was strong, TV's were poor reception for the cable, but overall to be there a few days for a conference, were ok.

The water in the shower was the warmest that I ever felt in a hotel. That was a giant plus.

This hotel is no longer pet friendly, something that is not yet updated on Hotels.com. While the hotel did agree to allow me to bring my small dog (as Hotels.com still lists them as pet friendly) the reservation did not make it easy to see that they charge between $75 to $100 extra per night as a pet fee. Please make these fees easier to see when making a reservation specifically for pet friendly hotels as that was a very unpleasant surprise that led me to significantly change my plans. Otherwise the hotel was OK, but this was not a pleasant experience.
