"Amazing place to stay. So clean, rooms are up kept. Staff is very helpful and polite. If you are looking for a good breakfast at the hotel, you’ll have to pass on this place though. Everything else is 5 stars."

Hyatt Place Sacramento International Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the hotel. The only issue was housekeeping. I asked for housekeeping on Monday 5.18.26 left early returned at 2 p.m. the room wasn't touched. Housekeeping came at 2:30 pm i asked to give me 10 minutes since i was charging to go to the pool. After 2 hours at the pool and returning to my room still no housekeeping. "
