Unique and Charming Stay Stayed on a Tuesday night for a concert at Ace of Spades and couldn’t have picked a better spot. The Sterling Hotel is full of Victorian charm, super clean, and walkable to everything we needed. The staff was kind, the atmosphere was peaceful, and it felt like a special experience, not your average hotel. Definitely recommend if you want something different and memorable!

We got one of the suites and the bathroom made the stay so worth it! The bath was amazing and clean. The room itself is really spacious and in a clean condition. Some of the stuff is out dated (tv, lighting, plumbing) but the aesthetics made up for it. We parked in a lot nearby for $16 the whole day. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Charming, nice design and pleasant staff. Key card situation is awful, and there’s no place to hang out on the property without feeling you are disturbing people. Rooms need fans, windows or to clean the returns on HVAC to get stale air out. Shower heads could use an update because it’s a hassle.

The ad said they have room service which was False. Deli and snack bar wasn't much and I had to go somewhere else to get beers. Had to get special key to use elevator to street as front steps we're too hard for me. Handicapped people would probably need to call to have them meet them since you need a electric card to get in. Beautiful room. Beautiful property.two blocks from UC Davis Health Pavillion Theatre.

The room was very large with newer carpeting. Room was very bright in the morning. I wish they had a way to block out the bright morning sun. Maybe darkening blinds. Otherwise, I was happy with the stay.

Did the job! A cool 3 min walk to SAFE convention

We stayed at the Sterling for a business trip for conference at the SAFE convention center. It was a cool 3 min walk to the conference wc was my primary reason for booking. It was also relatively short walking distance to Immortal Coffee and our partner's office for a convening. The front desk was responsive when I reached out and provided everything we needed to both check in/out and send reimbursements to our finance team. Overall good stay but if you want more fancy and concierge would likely recommend elsewhere.
