    Leaving

    The Victorian style house fitted with all the memorabilia, game room, and decked out reading made it iconic. The opportunity to meet such a great crowd made it even more special

    We weren't there long enough to have any real dislikes. So minor in the scheme of things, but I wish there had been a toaster available at breakfast so we could toast our bagels and English muffins.

    The hotel is a gorgeous converted Victorian mansion right in the historic area of Sacramento. We booked the private room which was bigger than I expected and surprisingly quiet, a great value for the price. I also appreciated the gated parking lot so we didn't have to worry about our car overnight.

    The mattress has a hump in the middle. Breakfast would be better if it had cheese or milk or some sort of protein.

    It is a safe hostel because you have to ring on the bell and show your key card in order to let in. The staff are very hospitable helpful and nice. The kitchen is very nice to cook in, and has all the facilities. Bathroom and shower area was a bit cold for me.

    Everything was fine!

    Great hostel in a fabulous 19th century mansion. East check in; morning desk staff particularly friendly and upbeat. I had the Frieda Kahlo themed room (#21) which was cozy with vibrant decor. Super clean communal bathroom/shower; quiet and well located not far from train station. For the price, you can't beat the charm and vibe of this property.

    I wish we had stayed longer. We didn't have enough time to fully explore the game room and parlor and fully appreciate the grandeur of this 1885 Victorian mansion.

    The beautiful photos of HI Sacramento Hostel drew me to book a private room (I traveled with my 12 y.o. daughter), and this historic mansion did not disappoint! It is stunning, and I only wish that we stayed longer than one night. Front desk and housekeeping staff were friendly and helpful. We had a car and appreciated the gated parking lot ($8/night). Our room was cozy, women's restrooms/showers were adjacent to our room, and everything was very clean. With such a grand and historic space, it was lovely to feel we were staying in a part of history. The complimentary continental breakfast (oatmeal, fruit, mini bagels, tea, coffee, etc.) was just right. We would certainly stay here again if in the Sacramento area.

    Location, the homeless problem in California is out of control. California has so much to see and do, it's a nice place to visit but I would never life there.

    The House was beautiful, and I appreciate the history and the reconstruction of it. The front desk host were the best, they were very helpful to me since this was my first time in Sacramento.

    the only thing I can think of is it would be nice to go out at night and use key card to regain entrance in the front door.

    everything was more than i expected from a hostel. the staff was friendly and knowledgeable, i was allowed to check in early too. i was directed to my room on the second floor and when i walked in it was like a little slice of heaven. the room was huge with 4 bunk beds, plenty of storage and let me say...the bed was amazing. i slept better than i have in the last 6 months. breakfast was right on point, oatmeal, bagels, English muffins, little oranges, apples, breakfast bars, coffee and tea. I had some running around to do after checking out and they let me store my big rolling duffel bag for the afternoon....it was so nice to be able to walk around and not drag 75 lbs with me.

    Well front desk lady saw a bag I had bought of drinking bottle water on my day trip out, she told me couldn't bring food in which it wasn't. They have filtered water from sink no bottle water which is fine, just didn't appreciate being hassled

    Hoped they had orange juice for breakfast, they had good tea bags choices, English muffins we're good.Was nice to start my day with fruit and oatmeal. This beautiful victorian house is amazing I've stayed here once before years ago. It's a nice centralized location would recommend this hostel to anyone.
