It was so clean, fresh, and neat. It is right across from the Bakersfield train station, and very handy to break up a long trip with a night's rest. The room was in excellent condition.

The room was nice, clean and comfortable. My only complaint is that there where some people bbqing in the bed of their pickup truck outside the door i had to use to access my room, and though that itself didn't bother me but the fact that they threw their chicken bones on the ground everywhere did a I was traveling with my service dog. Luckily I noticed when I took my dog out and was able to find the majority of them before my dog got ahold of one. So really it was the other guests that where not being mindful that was my only problem with my stay. Otherwise i would recommend the hotel and stay there again myself.

Hotel was clean ,staff was good. The only issue was that the pool is empty no water and they should inform people of that, ice machine wasn’t working in the location we were staying at so we had to walk to another building. Too many people the pool is important specially if the weather is hot and customers should be notified of.

The only good thing about this hotel was the check in. Was checked in less than 5 minutes. But the rooms and hallways smelled very stuffy and the walls are paper thin. We could hear other peoples conversations as if they were in the room with us. And the doors slamming shut constantly was even more annoying.
