I’ve stay here a few times when visiting Auburn. But this time my room wasn’t as clean as it usually is. The bathroom had mold in between the tiles and around the tub. Something that should easily be wiped away. Also my husband found someone’s used contact on the night stand. So it kind of made me think things weren’t that clean

The picture and description is for a hotel and this place is a motel. I am a disabled vet that can’t do stairs. We didn’t even stay but charged. Expedia did not help get a refund of any kind.

Let us in early, which was nice. There were lots of options for eateries close by. The one thing that stood out was the pillows were too large--it made it difficult to sleep. Would recommend bringing your own.
