Motel 6 Auburn, CA

Bang for buck...

Pros: friendly staff, clean room.

Cons: NO coffee machines in room

Pros: The place is listed as 2 Stars, but since I knew it was recently remodeled (Summer 2013), I considered the rate I paid a great bargain.

Cons: In the middle of the night there was yelling, threats of violence, slamming doors, and eventually police activity that involved police dogs pursuing suspects. How the guests behave are beyond Motel 6's control, but no effort was made to let the guests know that the threat had passed. It took a while to settle down and get back to sleep after all that commotion. In the morning, the young desk attendant wasn't prepared to address the overnight issue with departing guests. There were uncomfortable moments and awkward silences when I inquired about the frequency of such events.
