"Place was fine. We popped in for the night to catch a flight. We’ve stayed before because of proximity to Sacramento Airport. Each time it’s been to a clean comfortable room. We never stayed late in day or multiple nights. The price and location are what we’ve deemed as most beneficial"

Delta King Hotel

Delta King Hotel

8/10 Good
"I loved my stay on the Delta King. Considering I was on a boat, the room was quite spacious, very clean, and comfortable, and being able to watch the sunset from the deck was great. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the complimentary drink in the bar upon arrival. It would have been nice if the sealions had decided to stop "singing" by 10pm, but having the AC on and using the earplugs provided by the hotel mostly covered that during the night. While Old Sacramento has a bit of a transient person issue, the Delta King staff were reassuring that security staff did patrol the area, and I didn't have any problems walking to a nearby restaurant in the early evening."
