Top hotels in Downtown Auburn
Holiday Inn Auburn by IHG
Very friendly staff. Rooms are a good size. It looks the hotel has been refurbished recently. They had a standard breakfast but also had a omelette bar. The place is like a maze, the elevator is in a weird location.

Elmwood Motel
The room is clean, basic, affordable, and the staff was kind. Can't rate it as if it's a high-end property, but as a traveler who dies a lot of big miles days, this motel was a welcome destination.
