Convenient location off Hwy 80. Close to all shopping and restaurants. Full breakfast in morning and nice happy hour weekly. Rooms are comfortable, clean and quiet - furniture updated and in good repair. Staff courteous and helpful - good price for value especially for business travelers. Location is industrial area, nothing scenic but if you are here for a short stay, it's a good choice.

I'm very happy with this hotel as well as the Hampton next door (same owner I believe). They stress service and make sure you have all that you need. The happy hour is great - wine, beer, and snacks - enough that some of our folks didn't go out for dinner. Breakfast had tons of choices. Nice and quiet, clean! I like this location if you are going to McClellan business park because you don't have to get on the freeway.

Nothing special, but nothing horrible. The area wasn't the best either. Good bet for a budget concious family on the go.

Was in Sacramento on business Aug 15-18th, stayed in this HIE for three nights. Such a great find. They have a shuttle that will pick you up from the Sacramento Airport, with 24hr notice for $15, which is less than SuperShuttle. The drive was pleasant and the driver knew the area well as we talked about Sacramento on the way back to the hotel.

The property is less than two years old and looks great. The lobby was clean and spacious, and the elevator close to the lobby. Hallways were clean and smelled fresh. I requested a room farther back from the freeway, and it was very quiet. I had a king bed room, and it was very clean and spacious. Super comfy bed with a good choice of pillows. Blackout curtains were awesome. Wall-mounted controls for the A/C unit worked great, kept the room at 70º, which was welcomed considering the heat wave Sacramento was having. Bathroom was spotless and all granite, great water pressure.

TV channels were good, with a good selection of on demmand movies. Wireless internet was very quick (and free!), and gave me zero troubles. Furnishings were clean and comfortable.

The buffet breakfast was nice, good variety (changing daily) of pastries, bagels, muffins, eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, yogurt, milk, juice, coffee, and of course, HIE cinnamon rolls. The only item I didn't enjoy was the "cheese omlette" - which was basically EasyCheese inside a folded egg... Pretty gross. Other than that, the dining area was clean, spacious, with multiple flat-screen tvs on CNN and MSNBC.

As for locaiton and food, most places close to the hotel deliver with a minimum purchase -- I tried things from Domino's Pizza (cheapest minimum order was $7) and enjoyed the chicken wings one night and a baked sub the next.

Checkout was prompt and curteous. I needed duplicates showing a 'zero balance' for work expenses, and they were quick and happy to help.

All in all a great hotel with curteous and helpful staff. If you're in for business in the Northern Sac area, stay here.
