10/10 Excellent
"We had an absolutely amazing time at the Kimpton in Sacramento. The property is beautiful, the rooms are nice, and the location is perfect. But what really made our trip special was the staff—they were super friendly, exceptionally helpful, and always greeted us with a smile. We did have one issue: a light in our room flickered throughout the night. We let the front desk know about it in the morning just so they could fix it for the next guest, and they were incredibly receptive and appreciative of the feedback. Even with that hiccup, our stay was flawless. We will absolutely be staying at this property again!"
