A good value choice in Auburn

This was our second stay here. The staff are very nice, rooms are comfortable (we were in the back, quiet also), breakfast choices were good. The motel is within walking distance of several places to eat.

Would stay here again

My friend and I spent 2 nights here during a golf tournament. This hotel was very near where we had to be early in the morning. At first, we were a bit disappointed with the location on the freeway, and the outer appearance of the older motel. We were pleasantly surprised with the updated rooms, cleanliness, comfortable beds and large screen TV in the rooms. Breakfast was included and had some healthy options. This motel was about 7 minutes from downtown Auburn and good restaurants. The pool looks much larger in the pictures than it actually is, but was also spotless and clean.
