I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, quiet, and had hot water available on demand. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, and it's evident the responsible management prioritizes guests' comfort. The location was superb, nestled near great dining options and close to Old Town Auburn and downtown Auburn. However, it's not very close to Auburn itself. The service was exceptional, with always friendly and helpful staff, including housekeeping who even made sure my Kindle safely reached the East Coast.
