COMFORT INN & SUITES SACRAMENTO - UNIVERSITY AREA, Sacramento

The hotel sits on a busy intersection with direct access to I-5, making it easy to reach Old Sacramento, the Sacramento Zoo, Crocker Art Museum, California State Capitol, and Six Flags Waterworld. California State University is also close by. The surrounding area has fast-food options (Wendy's, Taco Bell, McDonald's, Denny's) within a 10-minute walk, plus a Starbucks and gas station across the street. The immediate neighbourhood is busy and can feel less secure at night, so using the free on-site parking is recommended. For longer stays or visits to downtown, the hotel's position suits car travel best.

Suites offer a minibar, separate seating area with a sofa sleeper, and some include spa baths. Family rooms with two double beds and a sofa bed are available. Room size is generally large, especially in the King Suite and the Efficiency King Suite (which has a single bathroom). The property has a mix of older and recently remodelled rooms - remodelled units feature updated lighting and modern decor. Rooms have windows that open and individual temperature control with heating and air conditioning. Soundproofing between rooms can be inconsistent; thin connecting doors and hallway noise may be an issue. Some rooms have had maintenance issues such as noisy shower pipes or loud AC units. Rooms on the ground floor offer easy access from parking.

The breakfast spread includes hot items (eggs, sausage patties), a make-your-own waffle station, yogurt, fresh fruit, cereal, bread options, juices, and coffee. Free coffee and juice are also available in the lobby throughout the day. The breakfast is generally described as decent and well-stocked, though some travellers find the variety basic. Several fast-food restaurants and Denny's are within walking distance for alternative meal options.

The indoor pool is heated to about 27.8 °C and includes a shallow end, with pool towels provided. The hot tub is free to use. The fitness centre has updated machines. The pool and hot tub are small, but they are clean and well-maintained. The indoor pool area uses chlorine, which can create a noticeable smell throughout the building.
