If you need a good night sleep, look no further. BW in Auburn has the best rooms with a quiet and safe location. I've tried several hotels in the area and won't stay anywhere else! Plus it includes breakfast with a good assortment. Front desk service is excellent too.

We decided to stop here and stay for the night instead of going on to Reno. I wish we had gone on then I might have got some sleep. We travel a lot and have stayed in hotels all around the country. This place has to be one of the worst stays we have ever had. The bed was horrible... More

It includes a buffet breakfast. The room is clean and nicely furnished/decorated and had all the facilities you need-flat screen TV, microwave, fridge, etc. Bed is... More

The desk clerk was very accommodating and helpful. We had a bad experience the day before at a different Best Western which we explained to her. She stated they had just had a staff meeting regarding the very issue of overuse of chemical cleaning products and offered to open numerous rooms so we would be able to select a room... More

This is an older motel that has been really well maintained and kept up to date. Rooms are spacious (something newer hotels and motels don't seem to be) and very clean. Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. This is right off of Hwy 80 with several food options within walking distance. We had a room toward the back... More
