Closest convenience to SMF... at the moment.

Residence Inn Sacramento Airport Natomas.

For years the Sacramento International Airport had a quaint, dog friendly hotel across from Terminal B. With the remolding and the UKF (unknown factor) of when a new hotel will be constructed at the airport, I was left with venturing down the highway back to the city limits of Sacramento.

Once again I found a great deal that accommodated dogs at the Marriott Residence Inn. It was a last minute reservations, however it was well worth it for both my husband and I.

The room was clean, well stocked and well-located.

The only negatives, which is not associated with the hotel per say, were:

1. The southbound off ramp to the hotel. Northbound, easy as pie to get into the hotel, however when exiting on the southbound exit you need to go around “Joe’s Barn” just to get to the hotel entrance.

2. Remember, when in city areas, and if you are driving trucks, the spaces and one way drive around are quite tight. Take 2 spaces if you need to so you are not trapped or blocked in the parking lot.

3. The area to walk your dogs is actually next to the hotel, on a vacant lot. Dog’s are not ‘cleaned up after’ – if you know what I mean…. The other worry, or for me was, with the overgrowth of shrubs is Rattle Snakes. Be on guard, you don’t want to have to find a vet with venom antidote.
