Key Housing, California's leading provider of corporate and short-term furnished housing, has designated 800J Lofts in Sacramento as its Featured Northern California Listing for January 2026. The selection underscores the growing demand for high-quality temporary housing options in the state capital, particularly for professionals conducting business with government agencies and local companies. Located just blocks from the California State Capitol, the property offers business travelers convenient access to government offices while providing a residential experience that contrasts with traditional hotel accommodations.
"800J Lofts garnered this award because it checks all the boxes for an offering that is a true 'home away from home' as a short-term housing option," said Bob Lee, President of Key Housing. The complex's proximity to state government operations and area businesses makes it strategically valuable for visiting professionals. Beyond its functional advantages, the property offers what Lee describes as a "hip" experience, creating an urban oasis for residents during non-working hours. The surrounding neighborhood features numerous restaurants, bars, and cafes within walking distance, enhancing the appeal for extended stays.
The property features studio, one-, and two-bedroom loft-style apartments with distinctive design elements including bamboo or polished concrete flooring, in-unit washer/dryers, open-concept kitchens with granite countertops, and large windows. Some units include European-style balconies or city-view patios, providing residents with private outdoor space. These features collectively create what the company describes as high-quality apartment living specifically designed for temporary Sacramento residents seeking more than traditional hotel accommodations.
Resident amenities include a 24-hour fitness center equipped with Peloton bikes, a media room, outdoor courtyards with BBQ grills, and a resident lounge featuring televisions and an espresso machine. The complex maintains pet-friendly policies, smoke-free environments, and controlled access security systems. Additional practical features include garage parking and onsite storage facilities. Unlike traditional hotels that can feel sterile, 800J offers a furnished-apartment experience designed for extended stays, providing occupants with space to work, cook, and relax after business hours.
Sacramento's central Northern California location provides additional advantages for residents, with the Bay Area approximately 90 minutes west, Napa Valley an hour away, and historic Gold Country towns like Auburn, Placerville, and Nevada City offering weekend excursion opportunities. Local attractions accessible by foot include Old Sacramento's riverfront district, the Golden 1 Center for entertainment events, and Midtown's dining corridor. Day trips to destinations like Lake Tahoe, Sonoma, or the American River Parkway are easily manageable from the central location.
Prospective residents can review detailed property information through Key Housing's updated information page, while those interested in broader Sacramento options can explore the company's Sacramento listings page. The designation comes as California's short-term rental market remains highly competitive, with corporate housing providers increasingly emphasizing residential-style accommodations that offer both convenience and comfort for business travelers requiring temporary housing solutions.
