Proximity to Seasons, which offers takeout
Most of the rooms feature one King size bed or two Queen size beds, although they do have a few two-room suites available with one King size bed and a sofa-bed. They also have two smallish conference rooms (865 and 430 sq. ft.).
Hallmark Inn is used by many groups visiting Davis (visiting football teams, junior high cheerleading conventions, etc.). The rooms on the G Street side are also in close proximity to the train tracks. If either of the above might prove bothersome to you, ask for a quiet room when you make your reservation or check in, as they are generally pretty accommodating to such requests.
Much of the parking is underground or at ground level with rooms above, which means your vehicle is protected from the elements. However, it's worth noting that the driveway to the underground parking structure is quite narrow, with a sharp blind corner, and a fairly low clearance. A few parking spaces on the G Street side are completely open air. If the hotel is crowded and you have a huge vehicle, it is advisable to arrive early and get an above-ground parking space. This is probably not a great hotel to bring your 40' RV to.
Hallmark Inn was formerly branded as a Ramada Inn. Around 1998, the hotel was renovated and received a new lobby, bar, and breakfast room. About the same time, the former Lyon's Restaurant was transformed into Seasons. Additional cosmetic upgrades to the hotel were done in 2008. Hallmark Inn is currently owned by the Youmans family and is related to Hallmark Properties, a local property management company.
They also have special rates for friends and family of UCD Students, as well as those who make their reservations online.

2008-05-10 18:30:18 It seems that the Hallmark Inn has undergone a series of upgrades over the past year. I've stayed here several times over the past two years, and last weekend when I was there I discovered that the big old televisions in the rooms have been replaced with wall-mounted flat screen TVs. This is a welcome change as the old televisions were the annoying type where they'd be extremely loud every time you'd turn them on. The phones have also been replaced, I'm pretty sure the bedding is new, and there is definitely new paint on the walls. Overall this place is a lot nicer now than the last time I was there, which was actually just last summer. Now if they can just do something about that dirt lot next door... —OscarSabino
