"Bed was comfortable."

Red Lion Inn & Suites Auburn

8/10 Good

"Pros: Property has everything you need for a short stay. The parking lot and location is safe and easy to access. The staff is very nice at check in and check out. There is a continental breakfast included at no extra charge. The rooms are spacious. The bed is very comfortable. There is a fridge, blow-dryer, ironing board, and the shower water is warm and good water pressure. Next to the hotel is conveniently a taco bell and Starbucks. The location is just a short uber ride to downtown. Cons: This is an older property, the rooms could use a little extra cleaning and minor updating but to be expected for its age. Reason for staying: We like to day drink and hop around the shops and downtown/old town and found this is a comfortable hotel to stay and the location is very convenient."

Comfort Inn & Suites Rocklin - Roseville

"My only complaint is the rock hard bed. I had to shorten my stay due to the rock hard bed. They really need to add a topper to it or upgrade the mattress. Besides that no complaints. No homeless, friendly front desk, and good breakfast."
