A gem in Auburn

Another great stay at the Foothills. I always get there late and I'm always greeted kindly and check in is easy. Since my last stay they added breakfast. A packaged pastry, banana and coffee of hot chocolate. It was nice bonus. The room is always clean, the bed is very comfortable and its quiet for a good night's sleep. Love the retro vibe and decor. The pool looks inviting, hoping I'll have time to enjoy it on my next stay. My wife and I have stayed at the Foothills five times now and always a great experience.
