Awful
Very outdated, would suggest making an effort in cleaning the outdoors and making it look somewhat welcome. We stayed 1-night and that was more than enough, the freeway is right next to it so if you’re planning to get some rest: FORGET IT! Please move on to another hotel.. would NOT recommend!!!

Dear Lesli, We appreciate your feedback about your recent stay. We apologize for any disappointment with our outdoor areas' outdated appearance and cleanliness.

I travel to Bakersfield at least once a month sometime twice a month to visit family and business. I have always stay in this hotel in the past because it was always nice and clean some noise but not bad, it was just the room size I need for my trip but the last 2 times I have come and stay there the rooms have been dirty this time around there was a big stain on the carpet and when I brought it up to the reception personnel she said oh “yes I know about the stain” and that was it I turn around and left very un satisfied .

Staff was nice and helpful. But by far this is thee worst Extended stay I've stayed in, the room was filthy and noisy. Staff switched my room, because I wasn't pleased with the cleanliness of my first room. On my 3rd night there, the toilet malfunctioned and they gave me a 99 cent store plunger to fix the issue myself. Of course the plunger didn't work and they switched my room again. In 4 days I stayed in 3 different rooms, the inconvenience of having to switch rooms was exhausting. The place is run down and not kept up, it's not in a good area and there is a lot of homelessness and a lot of stray cats. It smells like a litter box outside. And to top it off I had a man trying to sell me drugs at 7:50 in the morning! For the price of this hotel, I expected better quality. I could've had the same experience at Motel 6 for half the price. Never staying there again, I would not recommend.

Dear Samantha, thank you for your review. For guests opting to pay for their rooms in cash, a 100 cash deposit is required per room per stay. This deposit will be used to guarantee incidental charges that may be incurred during your stay, if any, as well as damages to the guest room. Payment of the deposit can only be made in cash. Upon check-out, the room deposit will first apply to outstanding incidental charges, and all or a portion may be retained to cover damages to the room during your stay. Sincerely,Hotel Management
