We stayed here overnight on a trip to Tahoe for skiing. The room was nice, clean and warm. The…read moremattresses were fine. No complaints about the room. The breakfast next morning, however, was disappointing and lacking. We came down at 6:30am when nobody else except one other lady was there yet. The yogurt machine wasn't ready and there were no sandwiches. The cereal selections included Raisin Bran and Cheerios. They had instant oatmeal, apple sauce cups, banana and hard boiled eggs. As we were waiting for sandwiches, a 3 person family who sat down after us was given priority for the sandwiches. The lady making them literally handed them over to this 3 person family sitting at their table instead of putting them down where the sandwiches go. I was fine with that except we were in a hurry. When I asked for them next (assuming she went by those who asked her first), she did not give it to me but put it in the sandwich section. At this time, there were 10 more people already. The problem is she only brought out three at a time. A lady took one and I took two for our family of four and I had to feel terrible about it. Later, I heard from the 3 person family that they didn't even want all the sandwiches. Needless to say, I am extremely unhappy about this breakfast experience. We left at 6:55am. Please tell the staff to have sandwiches ready at the breakfast hour at 6am as listed. Also please tell the staff not to hand sandwiches to people whilst there are other folks waiting for them. It was extremely UNFAIR of her to do so. The overall experience is 2 stars since 2 stars were deducted for the breakfast experience.

I grew up in Auburn and we are planning a visit to see my dad... I was trying to decide between the…read moreVista Sierra and this place. After just one call to the Holiday Inn, I knew I was making the right choice. I spoke to a lovely person named Wongie who was very helpful and accommodating. He seriously went above and beyond to help me reserve rooms for two different nights (not in a row)... As well as assist me in making the reservation that someone else is paying for :-) So this review is basically based off of customer service. I was also impressed by the reviews that I have read about this place on TripAdvisor and Yelp. It appears that this hotel is currently the number one hotel in Auburn. I will update this review after we have actually stayed there. But so far I am very pleased

Booked our rooms a few months ago for a wedding that was about 15 minutes away. Our stay was a 2…read morequeen sized room, with fridge, microwave, ironing board, iron, makeup remover and hair dryer. No toothbrush or toothpaste in the room but you can ask at the front desk. Upon arrival, we were given 3 key cards for one room and 2 for the other room. The grooms mom had put together a gift bag for each room so we received 2 - one for my room and one for the other room. We both left ours with the receptionist's while we went to our cars to bring our luggage up to our rooms. We forgot to grab them before we headed out for the night but assumed they would be held for us. Imagine my disappointment, when I went to go grab it later that night, that I was informed the other couple we checked in with, the girl had grabbed them. We didn't check in with a couple but we did with another female who was roomed with another female not present. Our male friend showed up as we were leaving to our cars so maybe the assumption was there but neither of them had the bags. I was told that an unknown female must have grabbed them and that one of the make receptionists thought each guest in each room was supposed to have 1 vs. 1 per room. There was only 7 left and they were for the guests checking in tomorrow. We were given the option for extra points to our account or free breakfast which we took. Food was aright but I would have eaten elsewhere had I known better. I'm knocking stars down because it was the sentimental loss of not having the bags the night prior to the wedding. I found out later that one of the groomsmen didn't get a bag so it was definitely a downer. The shower upon turning on the water had hair floating and leftover soap/shampoo was visible. I had to run the shower for a bit before going in. We were given bedding without downing at my request due to asthma and allergies and we were far from the elevator and we were on the top floor near the bride and groom and some of the groomsmen which was perfect! Convenient location with in n out down below and we were given one coupon for complimentary nonalcoholic / alcoholic beverage at Maxs restaurant.

Foothills Motel in Auburn absolutely lives up to the hype…read more I've been wanting to stay here ever since I discovered their Instagram account about two years ago, and I can confidently say, it did not disappoint in the slightest. The retro aesthetic is incredible. It has that perfect vintage roadside charm, but with a modern, fresh, recently renovated feel that is very well done. The rooms are big, warm, clean, and super comfortable. I loved everything about the design, from the spacious layout to the stylish finishes. The bathroom and shower are huge, the bed is incredibly comfy, and the large TV and private patio really made it feel like a boutique stay rather than a typical motel. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, and the location is excellent. You're within walking distance of great food and drinks, including The Lounge at Foothill Bowl, which was such a fun spot. The 10 percent discount I got there thanks to staying at Foothills Motel was a really nice perk. There are also great nearby options for Japanese, Mexican, and Beach Hut Deli, so you're set for whatever you're craving. One of my favorite parts was the exterior. The property is beautifully designed, and at night it lights up in such a cool, classic way that it's worth taking a walk around just to admire it. If you love retro style, comfort, and friendly local hospitality, Foothills Motel is a must stay in Auburn. I'll absolutely be back.

The toilet had a slow close lid. None of the higher end hotels had this touch. This was our only stay with wood floors (faux) rather than the nasty carpet most hotels use. The retro mini fridge and cooler was a nice touch. The bed was really comfortable. There is the noise from the road, but that goes away after about 9 pm. Overall we will stay here again, and look forward to it.

From the second we walked up from the private parking lot to the Victorian Mansion we were warmly greeted by owner and operator Alfred.  We both felt welcomed and overwhelmed with the beauty of this home. Alfred made us feel like a family member and gave us a tour of his beautiful home and it's history. Power's Mansion is adorned with so many antique pieces and trinkets that you might initially mistake it for a museum. Each of the rooms have a theme; we had the lighthouse room which was fully decorated in the lighthouse theme. The breakfast was hearty for travelers with tons of carbs, and I loved their quiche. Alfred sets a beautiful atmosphere with music and lighting. We were treated to outstanding hospitality! Alfred went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. His stellar recommendations to visit the iconic parks and sights in and around Auburn were greatly appreciated. Power's Mansion is over 120 years old so it's not perfect but is very charming and we would definitely go back again.

( They should consider a name change for the establishment. Read to the end for my suggestion. )…read more Let me start off by saying I haven't stayed at a Red Lion in the better part of two decades. From my memory in youth they were always decent to well kept establishments. So after an impulsive trip from Reno to Sacramento one day I was headed back to Reno and decided to not drive through the mountains in the dark of night. I saw the Red Lion on the list of places to stay and decided yep that's the one. I pulled in and went to the counter. The check in process was efficient so no complaints there. I walk upstairs and down the hall a bit dazzled by the dated carpet and the random sequencing of room numbers. The sequencing is still a bit bewildering. I get to my room and none of the bedside plugs works. I ascertain that well... none of the plugs are plugged in to make the things work. I take it upon myself to rectify the issue and pull the bed away from the wall and realize why they are not plugged in. Well the outlet is only half secured into the wall. I plug it in anyways and push the bed back. Success! Plugs now work on the night stands. After I settle down I go to take a shower. I am greeted by paint peeling off the walls and dirty switch covers. I then start the shower to abysmal water pressure. This is likely because the rear of the shower head connection puts out as much water as the shower head itself. On the bright side the bed was comfortable to my liking anyways. Not a rock and just soft enough to relax into. Now allegedly there is breakfast but at this point I don't know that I even wanna risk it for the biscuit. I have already renamed this place in my mind as no longer the Red Lion but simply The Mangy Lion instead. I would recommend a revamp of The Mangy Lion to restore it to its former prominence as a Red Lion.

There was an odor that hit me in the face upon entry. It only intensified and got worse as I made my way into the bathroom, which reeked of cigarette smoke. The hardwood floor was filthy, so I wasn't comfortable walking around in socks or bare feet. There were no coffee makers inside of the rooms, and the one that was located in the office was broken. There's no lighting above the desk. The top rocker switch located at the vanity was broken. The only redeeming quality is the staff, as they were pleasant and replaced the towels and changed out the garbage bags when I was gone for the day. Obviously, the cleaning crew could use some help. The location is convenient to nice restaurants, shopping and parks/ hiking and walking trails. There's also a gym located right next door.

I am a local who stayed here for use of the shower, as our well water is acting up. It was exactly what I needed. A warm room with clean water. If you need a place to stay while you're out and about and visiting Auburn, I highly recommend this motel. All that's needed is a trip to a local coffee shop, which is right up the road being that the motel is in a PRIME location. 5 stars for location, affordability, and modern touches.

I like the location, especially because it is next door to Awful Annie's, which is an amazing breakfast/ brunch restaurant worth the best Bloody Mary's around! We also decided to stay here because the Annual Rib Cookoff in Auburn was the next day. After we checked into our super clean room with 2 queen beds, we went out to dinner(for our one year anniversary). When we got back to our room, the TV wouldn't connect. We phone the front desk, and the nice man that checked us in came up and fixed it for us and also pointed us to the ice machine (no ice buckets available). Our beds were comfy, sheets were clean, and pillows were fluffy. The table and rolling chair were very clean(this time). Again, they have great channels available for your needs. The next morning, you can go to their main office, but take the elevator to the next floor so you can enjoy their hot complimentary breakfast. I had an English muffin with eggs and bacon worth hot sauce & ketchup on it. They also have fruit, yogurt, muffins, and other breads available. They even have a pancake machine! We absolutely enjoyed our stay here. I do look forward to staying in Auburn again at the Rodeway Inn!
