Best Auburn Motel Option!
This was our first stay at The Foothills Hotel and we loved it! We needed to get over the Pass before the snow hit and the price, location and condition were all perfect for our needs. We actually booked the motel again three nights later when we couldn't get over the Pass to return to Reno! Room has been upgraded in a mid Century deco style with red frigidaire and microwave oven, bright lighting, quiet heat, comfortable bed and pillows. We highly recommend this motel especially after previously staying in other tired, dimly lit motels in Auburn!

Great Option for Avoiding Snow over the Pass!
We had had a very stressful day and didn't leave Reno until 7:30 pm to avoid the snowstorm forecasted for that night and the next day. We arrived and were given a very quiet room with no guests staying on either side of us! The room is completely upgraded in a mid Century deco style with a red frigidaire and microwave oven. The brightly lit room and bathroom were such an improvement over old dimly lit rooms! The beds and pillows were very comfortable and the heater was very quiet. Glenn, the man at the front desk, was extremely friendly and gave us the history of the motel. We also recommend Nancy's Cafe for a reasonable, delicious breakfast and The Club Car for dinner. It offered a great variety of food and the ambiance and service were excellent!

Very nice.
Everything is renovated to top standard. Looks and feels like new. Very friendly staff. Rooms are maybe a little small but nothing that bothered us. Very nice with that 50s feeling. Clean perfect.
