Courtyard by Marriott Sacramento Cal Expo

Stayed for California International Marathon. I liked: 1) location where the official CIM shuttle buses to/from the start/goal come right next to the premise. 2) parking lots located adjacent to the rooms so it's very convenient to load/unload the bags. 3) bed which is very comfy and help relax at night before the race. 4) simple breakfast and coffee available from 4am to 5am (which is shuttle bus pickup time) for the runners.

Told the front desk that the draining plug in the tab was missing, but no one came to solve it. As a result, I wasn't able to soak my body in a bath in the evening before the marathon.

The Bistro has fantastic food made to order. The staff is amazing. All of the staff was helpful and kind. The bed was super comfortable. The room has a coffee maker, fridge, iron, and hairdryer. The room was clean. They have a market as well which was helpful as I didn't have a car to travel to get snacks for the room.

The rooms had a funny musty smell. I switched rooms when I first got there and found that each of the rooms smelled musty.

It was quiet and, all though I didn't get to have any due to having to leave early, I liked that they offered breakfast.

Guests smoking marijuana down the hall. The smell traveled from one side of the hall, down to the other. Thankfully, not into the room, but as soon as you walked out the room you got hit with the smell from all the way down the hall. There was also a "new" towel that looked like it had been used. It had light red marks on it and there were one or two pieces of hair on the floor of the bathroom, as if pubic.

bed nice an comfy clean and friendly staff nice little refrigerator. nice to have shampoo ,soap an conditioner in shower

we were told about breakfast was behind bistro. but when we started to serve ourselves staff told us it was only for a certain group and we needed a a pass. so we were not suppose to be there . but staff person was very nice about it so we ate what little we had on our plate an left.

When we first walked into our room, the air conditioner was on, and sounded as if a loud blender was running, so we asked for another room. Glad we did, since my sister (I had not seen in a year and a half due to C19), and her husband were checking in, therefore they gave us a room next to them. The location is very good because it is fairly quiet. The breakfast was adequate for a “bag breakfast”: yogurt, juice, apple, bagel (you toast in the eating area). The 2nd morning we skipped the “breakfast to go”. Very clean accommodations.

I do think if you offer a to go breakfast, you have something with protein like a small bag of fruit and nuts, or similar. Also, they have a policy if you only stay 2 nights, the room is not made up so you need to call for clean towels (they were very prompt-came immediately after I called).

Fast check in, clean, restaurant staff super friendly. We booked 2 rooms and they were spacious and clean. Starbucks in the hotel, YES.

Starbucks in the hotel didn't open until 8am on a Sunday. We checked out at 6:45am and was excited to get coffee and breakfast, but it as closed. I was not the only one who was disappointed when we walked up. Not a deal killer at all.

The location was great, right near Cal Expo. The facilities were very clean and extremely comfortable. The amenities were indulgent. There was a pool, spa, gym, restaurant and snack marketplace all available to fill any need. Definitely recommend and will be returning.

Everything was perfect.

The location was a little out of the way for the area I did most of my activity in, but easy enough to travel between location. I liked the free parking . Did not use the restaurant this trip. The hotel was more quiet this time around.

The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The ambience was very nice.

housekeeping did not clean my room for four days empty trash. They also did not change the linens which was all right but they didn’t make the bed.

Great pool, great bistro,great bar!!! After a day out site seeing we were able to come back and relax at the bar without driving. The hotel was close to the freeway access so we could get to restaurants within minutes.

The jacuzzi wasn’t open. They said on the sign it was due to COVID-19 but I haven’t heard of any documentation that COVID lives in jacuzzis. We would only share with family and social distance. Please use common sense when making some of these decisions.
