Amber House Inn of Midtown

I stayed at Amber House for a week in the fall of 2019. It's one of the only B&B options in Midtown and has a bit of charm.The breakfasts were always good. They made what would be just basic fruit and eggs taste glorious. We had a few nice conversations with Holly, who had owned the B&B for about 3 years at the time. She told us a little bit about the history of the block and the B&B itself. It's a nice touch to have coffee delivered to the room each morning.Our room, the Dickenson, was a bit dusty when we first arrived. When we complained, it was quickly and mostly remedied. The weirdest part of the room, though, was that the bathroom had no real door - just a curtain. I just don't see why the door was excluded. That being said, the bathroom had a large jacuzzi, which I wish I had used more. It was a treat!

Went for a Valentine's Day get away and stayed in room 13 the Beethoven room. We went out to dinner came back and my girlfriend seen a cockroach crawling on the bed. So we lifted the sheets and then one fell to the ground. I called the on site manager (owner) and showed him the roach dead on the ground. He apologized and he said all he could do was issue me a refund. I had to find a hotel room at 11pm which on top of the roach ruined everything. My refund never came through after months of calling the amber house which stated that the refund was processed. 2 months later my bank is still dealing with disputing the charges and getting me my refund. I would not recommend staying here.

Hello Mr Owner,*I thank you for changing your response to what you posted earlier. I am not a critical reviewer. When we arrived at 11am we were not warmly welcomed. What we were served the next day, I found a little funky. As for price? Both the King Room & Queen room are the same price. So my choice wasn't based on price, the website has fine print which states Spa Tub. Nothing that I can see regarding house choice.I wish you well in your future endeavors.If there is one thing I hate, it's an argumentative business owner. When you say my reviews are extremely critical? Yeah, you're stirring the pot. This is so not the case. If you think travelers want canned pineapple rings and cookies out of a package, compared to the farm fresh eggs I had at a B&B last year, maybe that's a Sacramento B&B thing? It's not critical at all, just pointing out the fact that it's nowhere near flying an excellence flag. And it was never explained to us that we'd be staying in another house.Good day to you sir!

Have you ever left your honey moon suite because you and your husband were treated unfairly? If I can, I will rate Amber House ZERO! We paid $285.42 for a deluxe room with queen bed and in room massage tub. On the night of our wedding, as soon as we walked into the room then the bathroom. We were totally disappointed because the tub that we expected was not there. It was a totally a 1-star room full with the weird smell. We called Holly and asked why we received this room instead of Deluxe room and she said that that's all they have. We booked 2 months ago and didn't expect to stay in the room like this on our wedding night. She said we could leave and get the refund later. She blamed Expedia for giving us the wrong information about the room. FYI, We have used Expedia for many times and no bad experience with it. They overcharged us. They treated us unfairly. Who would do that to your customers? And just tell them to leave if they want to. And blame the third party and system problem. If you still want to book this place, don't use Expedia. They will screw your expectation.

Cozy, classic and quiet space nestled in old midtown. Friendly and welcoming management!

We stayed in the Chauncey Suite. It was AMAZING!!!! The room is everything we expected and more. The little intricate details added the perfect touch. The room was clean and comfortable. The pillows and bed were like sleeping on clouds. The staff was helpful and friendly. The jacuzzi tub was perfect for us after a long day, definitely big enough for 2. We had fresh cookies waiting for us in the room when we arrived. We would hands down recommend!!! It was relaxing and romantic. We will definitely be back.

Lovely people, beautiful venue, relaxed atmosphere, awesome neighborhood. Please support these fine folks when they reopen. SeattleSophie

Great B&B. Check in generally at 3 PM and checkout 11 am. There are two victoeian homes that are part of this place. The larger one has a porch with 2 tables and a swinging chair. This place is great to take your breakfast, or PM sip of vino. The entrance leads to a living room with comfy couches, rocking chairs, a fireplace and an entrance into the dining room. The dark earthy wood and accents of stained glass make this place so charming in a Sactown kind of way. The rooms are each themed differently. Each morning they leave coffee outside the room at 6:30. Then they offer 3 types of breakfast options, each that is tasty and beautiful in presentation. The location is central in midtown so you can walk the city. Plus it's a flat city so am strolls are great, especially in the summer, before the day gets hot.Staff was kind and accommodating. I highly recommend staying here when you visit the California capital.

The cafe de olla is perfect. The service is great and the mariachi are great!The food is good, but the beans need to be more thick. The beans are like a sauce? Beans should have substance. The atmosphere is likely. Good place

Loved staying there...no longer open not sure what happened great owners. Comfortable rooms. Nice breakfasts too bad they shuttered
