"This a fun hotel in the Old Town Sacramento entertainment area. The rooms are small, as would be expected on a boat, but the entire place is clean and well maintained. Be prepared for some noise from the adjacent area, and to use stairs to access upper rooms. Parking is valet only unless you are willing to walk a few blocks to the parking structure as I did. I enjoyed my stay and plan on staying there again."
