    Currently here now due to out of town work. I'm typically someone to overlook inconvenient things and not be to overwhelming. First room I was in with my roomate, I got ate alive by bed bugs and when I confronted the counter about the issue I was met with "idk what to say, maybe you're getting bit while you're at work". So without any concrete evidence I did not pursue the matter, that was until I caught one crawling right by my face one night. Went to the front desk again, I was offered ZERO compensation and furthermore when I asked for a different room all they could say was that he did not have any available. So I had to do his job for him and switch with one of my coworkers. After the switch, a couple nights following, we were met with bed bugs AGAIN. And this time when we confronted the front desk, the same lazy asshole tells us "you guys have to be the ones bringing them into the rooms". If I could give this place negative stars, I would. The permanent tenants are constantly smoking their grass, which not everyone likes the small of that stuff. The office smells like a pig pen, they told us several times that the pool was closed without reason, they don't clean anything rather they just replace towels and make your bed with the same sheets every day. And for everyone thinking bout staying here, the first room we left....they did absolutely nothing to fix the bed bug dilemma, instead they re opened the room the very next day

    This is the biggest dump I have ever stayed in, don't trust anything the staff tells you, drove all the way down from Yerington NV, they advertise there open till 11:00 PM, don't believe it, called said I'd be there by 10:00 PM and was told no problem, arrived at 10:05 and they were closed, no one around and no place to stay, had to drive back to Lodi and try to find a room, it's now 10:40, finally found one, in the morning drove back to a bunch of excuses, no air conditioning, terrible service, and a jerkwad at the front counter.

    We just checked out of Rio Sands in Rio Vista and are not happy. Our bathroom had the towel bar falling out of the wall, the sink was plugged, the shower pan was cracked and the shower was leaking. Booking.com said that the bathrooms had been redone but apparently our room (14) was the one room that had not been as per the front desk lady. Last but not least we were ravaged by some sort of pest while sleeping (either fleas or bedbugs) so we left covered in bites! We evacuated the Atlas fire area hoping for some relief and this is what we got! Terrible!

    Tip your housekeeping

    I not sure what all the fuss is about. This is a nice place with friendly staff. I was driving past and thought "My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night" . I was greeted upon arrival by a nice gentleman. He helped get me settled in. The room was good size and clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable. I slept good considering it's on the highway and there's plenty of semi truck traffic noise. I found that Chris and Tina did a good job when they cleaned the room before me. Btw, Please tip housekeeping when you stay. I'm sure they have more stories than I'd like to hear about guests bad habits. If you would tip your waitress for good service, why wouldn't you tip housekeeping to clean up after you? All in all I can't really complain. The price was competitive not overpriced taking into account its the only local place. I took some pics so people can see the good stuff. There were no holes in the walls or spider webs as others have said. I'd definitely return and recommend this place if your in town.

    This was a really charming place. The staff were warm and welcoming. The drinks were good. We spent…read morethe evening ghost hunting which was fun. They are in the midst of renovations which are sorely needed but you can see some very real potential there. It's like stepping back in time when you visit. And if you're a fan of art deco you will be in heaven. So much history to see. It's truly a special place.

    2025 update: tday buffet was SUPREME…read more My personal preference ratings so I remember for next year: 1. Prime rib, mashed potatoes, both pumpkin and onion soups 2. Yams (don't go too hard but ya yum, future self), herb biscuits (staff don't read this part - future self, steal one even if ur full), stuffing (go light on this tho, a lot of bread, future self), baked brie, cranberry goat cheese, creme brulee, pudding, cranberry sauce 3. Corn 4. Turkey (tbf I tried the white meat but am actually fond of dark meat), green bean casserole - Prime rib very very good. Huge 360 from last year. - Cranberry sauce so mature in flavor, nicely spiced, maybe my favorite of all cranberry sauces? - Mashed potatoes fluffy and buttery, y'all know what you're doing - Creamy onion soup ugh savory, creamy, not too salty, sumptuous home cooking (tho I waste the bulbs unless they're blended in lol sorry) - Pumpkin soup ugh yes like a savory pumpkin pie, thick soup, supreme - I don't usually eat bread at a buffet but the herbed biscuits are worth it (also the stuffing, tho I personally prefer my dad's/grandma's gizzard stuffing) - Baked brie is complicated I think because it has to be kept warm for a little gooeyness but I can't resist any kind of cheese, I don't care if it's hot or cold, store-bought, even kraft cheese (is that cheese?), I'll eat it

    One of the most comfortable beds I've slept in. Supportive but soft. They're very high so my mom…read morehad a hard time climbing into it (she's 4'7".) Good hvac unit with controls that worked as it should. Our room was noisy because we were on the ground floor near the pool during an adolescent tennis tournament. Lots of slamming doors, running feet and yelling. Room was clean and had a lot of lighting options. There is a multi plug charger attached to the bedside alarm for your electronics. Well stocked with plenty of towels, coffee pods, cups, toiletries, tissues. Water pressure in the shower was mid. Breakfast had a decent variety but the chaffing dish cuisine did not taste great (salty reconstituted scrambled eggs, diced potatoes, diced processed ham.) The breakfast team was very hard working at cleaning and replenishing the eatery. I really liked the automated pancake maker, bean burritos, hard boiled eggs and the carb station. Lobby has a 24-hr access self serve coffee/tea counter. The decor for Halloween was super cute so I had to take pictures of some of their things. Service at the desk was so amazing and efficient. We would like to sing our praises to Bella for finding us a room at the last minute! We were very impressed with her attitude and friendliness.

    If there's zero, I rate it 00000…read more Our reservations was 3:00 pm September 6,2025 We came an hour early before 3:00 pm.Our experienced was extremely dis appointing.Upon our arrival we went to the lobby, you couldn't find anybody to ask, I rang the bell, seems like what I did was very annoying when she came out from the back room of the front desk. She said no rooms are ready yet. I asked, how about if we checked anyway we're there, she said they aren't ready to check us in either. We need to come back before 3:00pm in between 2:30pm - 3:00 pm. At that point, we asked her if we can use the restroom in the lobby, she said "its out of order" not even offering alternative restrooms. How about if we really need the restroom ??? On our check out 9/7/2025 10:30 am We brought our luggage out. As I remember breakfast is included, I went back to the lobby if they still serve breakfast, she said "No" not even look up into my face, and look down right away to whatever she's doing. I felt ignored. When my Caucasian boyfriend came in , he asked the same question, if they are still serving breakfast , she was very polite, explained to him that they have certain time to serve breakfast and say to him " have a great " Do you think,that is a fair treatment? I felt discriminated for the same simple question, an obvious and unacceptable different treatment. This kind of unprofessional and discriminatory behavior should not happen in any hotel. All guests deserve equal respect and courtesy. I don't usually complain but in the future it will not happen again . I hope.......

    Serious Security Breach and a Staff That Doesn't Understand Guest Safety…read more My experience at the Residence Inn Modesto was nothing short of alarming. I had a Do Not Disturb sign clearly displayed on my door, yet the hotel staff entered my room anyway. This isn't a housekeeping mix‑up -- it's a direct breach of personal security and a complete disregard for guest safety. When I raised the issue, both the front desk supervisor and front desk agent told me the property can "enter any room at any time," even with a Do Not Disturb posted. That statement alone should concern anyone staying here. It shows a total lack of understanding of basic privacy, guest rights, and safety protocols. The Regional Manager didn't handle it any better. He offered 5,000 points (about $20) as a "gesture," and seemed surprised when I told him that was unacceptable. The fact that such a serious violation was met with a token offer and blank stares says everything. What became painfully clear is that no one at this property -- from the front desk to management -- grasps the gravity of entering a guest's room without permission. They treated it as if it were nothing, when in reality it's a major security breach that puts guests and their belongings at risk. If you value your privacy, your safety, or the expectation that your room won't be accessed without your consent, do not stay here. This property has made it clear they do not take those responsibilities seriously.
