Had a great time. The space was very well appointed, the beds were very comfortable and we loved the layout. Very close to many of Midtown’s best spots for food and drink. I will try and come back to this VRBO the next time we are in Sacramento.

This was a cute little place to stay at. However, when we got there, there was 10 stairs up to the porch and then 16 more when you open the door. So, if you have someone who can’t go upstairs this might not be the place for you. The instructions to parking is confusing and print your passes before you come. There was also one spoon and two forks when we arrived. Lastly, there was no parking passes on the table. There however is a small target with Starbucks down the street. Besides all of that, this place really is so cute and old fashioned. It’s super cute to stay at for a few days. We had lots of fun!!

I’ll take credit for a small portion of this terrible stay because previous guests had mentioned how inconsistent communication was and the fact that there was no parking available.
Owner did not have parking permit available for us and said “I’m working on it”. We were never able to reach him. Even called personal cell and nothing. Had to pay for overnight parking in a city lot. Overpriced for the place with one bath and no parking. Don’t recommend staying here, your money will be better spent somewhere else especially if you have kids, you know you need your car nearby. Not a family friendly spot. Neither is it pet friendly. Has lots of stairs and not good for taking a dog out at night to go potty.

We booked this property for one night for my husband, myself and adult son who has multiple sclerosis. We were aware of the steps to enter but when we got in there was a steep flight of stairs that was not disclosed in the listing. My son has balance issues so this was not safe and I would not have booked it if I had known.
The stay started off with needing a parking pass that the owner needs to send a link to get. I messaged him, went through the process online to get the pass and it said his 10 allowable passes for the month were used. I messaged the owner asking what to do. He didn’t respond until after 8pm and then said it’s after 8 so you are good. Just move your car once in the morning before 9am and you should be good until you check out at 11. Who wants to set their alarm to go move their car and find new parking on their vacation?
There was a hole in the wall in the living room that looked like some sort of exhaust was attache at some point. There was only AC in bedrooms that were window units. We set it to 60 degrees and it still didn’t cool rooms. There were some sort of joint and lighter on patio table. The lock in the bathroom was a latch and it was broken so the door stayed open an inch. By this point I was not willing to stay because with MS heat exacerbates symptoms so my son would not do well with the AC not cooling, plus the lack of cleanliness and condition of property. I do not recommend this property.

Pros:
- close to the convention center, about a 9 minute walk, about 6 blocks away
- pantry had basics like salt, pepper, complimentary coffee pods, tea bags, extra toilet paper rolls, paper towels, garbage bags, dish soap, etc
- apartment was tidy, beds were clean and well made
- we could not hear the neighbors - the unit has 4 apartments and it was quiet at night
Cons:
- neighborhood is in a sketchy area - we walked back at night after 9:30pm and we always walked past homeless people sleeping on the sidewalks and we walked past people smoking and doing drugs
- this apartment does not have central air - the two window units did not cool the entire unit
- one of the bedrooms is not really a bedroom (there is no door - it opens up into the living room with just a curtain to separate)
- the bathroom has no lock
- the shower was wobbly - you have to be careful how you stand or else you felt like you were going to fall
- the bathtub handles were broken
- kitchen faucet was loose but worked fine
- apartment floor was very dirty (we took off our shoes when we arrived but within ten minutes, our feet were black like soot - it appears the floors have not had a good mopping in what may seem like months!)
- upon our arrival, the deck was left untidy, with dirty cigarette tray, cigarette butts etc
- the back deck appeared to have a beer box (not sure if it was full or empty)
- you could smell smoke on the towels and in the bathroom, near the toilet and window

DO NOT STAY HERE! This property says it's ok for all ages, it is not. I have a 2 year old, and the host knew the age of my child before coming. I asked about a pack and play, no response. There is an exposed gas line, a shared patio with drugs and alcohol left out, and no parking. I contacted the host multiple times with no answer and am now going through VRBO to get a refund. I will update as changes are made, no one has been helpful at this point. This was completely unacceptable and I hope no one else stays here and has to go through this.

This cute property was just a short drive away from old sac, which is very convenient. Surrounding neighbors were friendly and it felt very homey. Property manager was very informative and gave great detail on the property itself as well as how to obtain a parking permit.

We enjoyed our stay here for one night! We were able to walk to downtown for dinner. There’s also a Target right down the street for any last minute groceries needed. The place was clean and quiet.
