The room is clean, basic, affordable, and the staff was kind. Can't rate it as if it's a high-end property, but as a traveler who dies a lot of big miles days, this motel was a welcome destination.

Pros: Convenient parking and location Quick check in Affordable Generally clean, some areas could have used a once over imo Bed was comfy enough, clean sheets and towels Heat/air functioned- to an extent Microwave and minifridge is nice Room smelled nice Cons: Next to busy road If you have our luck, what sounds like fifteen people will stomp up and down the needs-to-be-updated staircase directly on the other side of the wall where your heads lay at five in the morning. Uncomfortable blankets Heat/air is either very warm or very cool, couldnt find a good middle ground. Perhaps user error, but doesnt seem like its got a thermostat. Bathroom light does not turn off, door was hard to close/open. Midnight trip to the bathroom sure to be chilly because of need to keep the door closed. You get what you pay for in Auburn. This place truly isnt terrible, its alright as a matter of fact. Could use an update of a handful of things but worth it if youre staying a night or two on a budget.

The checking was easy. I had prepaid for the stay. Miki was very helpful with my special needs accommodations. 1st floor, service animal. She was very nice and i enjoyed speaking with her. For me, simple is perfect. I needed very little. My room was efficient and was all i needed. The room was clean and bright. Nice bathroom and shower. Good water pressure and plenty of Hot water. My queen bed was comfortable. The sheets and pillow cases were clean and fresh. There was enough for space for my gear, bags, and my pups bed. Again, he is a certified service animal. Other furnishings were sparse. The surrounding area is a little busy at certain parts of the day and early evening, the rooms are set back from the street so it's not overly noisy. Everything in zAuburn i is in close proximity. I'll stay again when in town

We stayed long enough to take pictures and left to find a decent place to stay. It was so bad that I ate the cost, plus the cost for a new Hotel, The pictures speak for themselves, but I will summarize the main issues. 1. Dead ants in the fridge 2. Mold in the shower and along all baseboards 3. The bed was soft that when we sat on it we sank into a pit in the middle (12" of movement). 4. brown stuff splattered on the ceiling 5. TV hung om the wall with the cords dangling below it. 6. No nightstands. 7. Air conditioner was disgusting
Disgusting shower
Mold everywhere

This is a great deal. If you need a clean place to stay the night in a safe area this is your choice. Very simple design with upgraded interior and has fridge and microwave. Basically two bedrooms to sleep in and bathroom /shower but perfect for what we needed coming in late.
