We liked the retro design of Foothills Motel in Auburn CA. We were also impressed with how clean the room was and the grounds as well. The pool waz a delight with lovely lawn and shade trees. Easy shopping and dinning nearby.

The hotel owner is very friendly and welcoming. The location is great and easy to get to. The room was tiny though. The bed mattress was a little soft for me. Still a nice property.

I loved nearly everything about this place it was quaint and cute. Had great quality though to the inside of the rooms. My only complaint is the size of the rooms it feels overly small and with 2 kids and a dog it was nice and packed but it was clean and well taken care of. I appreciated the retro modern styling it made my wife and I both smile. Staff was very friendly especially in the morning of our stay. I’m recommending this location to all my family who visits the area.
