We decided to go past Sacramento and stay further away from that area due to cost, the ones that were cheaper we not safe clean. Im glad we waited until Modesto its right off of the freeway, they have a nice hot breakfast and coffee before you leave, I see some of the other negative reviews and do not understand. They must be used to staying at 400 dollar nighy hotels, and even then things are not always that great at expensive places. We stopped for the night to get some rest before going down to So cal from Vancouver washing, if you leave by 5 to 6am or so this is a good point to stop to stay and get rest. Room was clean. was easy check in... and I think if you have super high expectations, then maybe you need to stay at a 400 night hotel. and not nit pick a mark on the wall to justify giving them a 2 star review. I thought it was great for the purpose and was safe, go eat at mels, you wont be disappointed, I cant remember if it was near this hotel or previous exit somewhere. If your looking for a place to sleep that is safe clean and has breakfast!! they made biscuits and gravy and had eggs and these great cinnamon rolls and many other items like bagels yogurt fruit oatmeal, pancakes I think... if your iff about Sacramento drive a couple more hours and just stay here. if your going to so cal you only have like a 4 or 5 hour drive the next day and boom your there, you can take your time in the morning get breakfast at 6 or 630, get your day planned out and be on your way!
