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.

Very courteous staff. The place is in need of exterior work, the interior of the room was spotless. Wished it had coffee in the room
Centrally located. Very clean and comfortable. Very nice staff. Room had everything I needed. Would highly recommend! Will be there next year! Thank you !!!!
The staff member at the desk was super friendly and kind. The room was clean amd everything worked properly. Really just cant gobwrong with this place.
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.
If you’re heading to the Auburn area to hike and explore this is a great, affordable option! Rooms were very clean and the owner was super friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be staying again the next time we are in the area.
Good: Generally clean, newish bathroom, bed, near downtown Auburn shops.
So-So: room size small, very basic furniture (no drawers)
Bad: *Lots* of traffic noise (next to a busy intersection), incl lots of motorcycles.
It is a very nice Motel and really quiet during night even it is locatited on a busy road during the day.
We slept very well there.
The sgaff is very friendly and helpful and made our stay a pleasant one!

Clean Budget Hotel
This is a no frills budget hotel but was clean and comfortable. Easy walk to Downtown and the Historic District.
It is modest motel with recently updated rooms. The rooms are clean and fair service. The location is a little noisy because of the traffic but that is the case with most motels. It worked for us for a one night stay.
I was looking for a clean place to sleep on a rail trip. This was a great place that fit my needs. It was clean and looked recently remodeled. When I check into a new place I always check the sheets and bed for signs of bugs. Past the test!! The sheets were clean and very nice to sleep in. The owner was nice and showed interest in my stay. It was a good stay for a motel.
The property was clean , a lot of white towels, front desk was so nice gave us 3 cans of beer, l want to stay there again and it’s nice area nobody sell drugs on property no drug dealers outside of hotel too l want to buy the house in that neighbourhood
Nice comfortable basic no-frills motel for a budget price. We just needed a place to stay overnight and this was perfect. The facility is a bit aged and used, but they keep up on paint, maintenance, and the like. My only complaint is that there was more road noise than I prefer.
