The price is right , The hotel was clean , I asked for a bottom room because of my wife’s bad knees . They put us infront of three handicapped parking spots . Everyone checking in parks in those three spots ,People parked there all night talking and smoking cigarettes , we had to turn off our air conditioner . Don’t get a room near the office . Great location in Bakersfield .

Staff was wonderful. Check in and out was simple. Room was decent and worth it. Only slight inconvenience was one towel to at had hair in it but housekeeping can always give you some that are better. Worth the price if you need somewhere to stay on a budget.
