I had always wanted to stay on the Delta King, and it turned out to be a really fun and memorable experience. The location was super convenient, and one of the best parts was being able to just sit out on the lower deck and enjoy the atmosphere of the river and Old Sacramento.
That said, there were a few drawbacks. The rooms did not provide shampoo, which was a huge inconvenience for an overnight stay. The valet parking also took more time than expected—it would have been much easier to have standard come-and-go parking instead of waiting for the valet, especially when multiple cars were ahead.
On the positive side, breakfast was very good and the bar had a nice atmosphere. The only hiccup there was that my husband ordered a pale ale but was served an IPA instead.
Overall, I’m glad I finally got the chance to stay here. It’s a unique spot with plenty of charm, though a few small improvements could make the experience even better.
