Ok for a quick stop
Rooms clean. Good job to the maids. Prolly an old comfort inn??? Place is worn, but staff very nice and trying their best. Lots of homeless, but that is everywhere in Bakersfield, the town is a dump.
The hallways smelled like weed even though it said no smoking. Very outdated hallways n rooms. Good thing was nobody bothered me and my car was safe all night.
The people who ran this hotel should not be in the hospitality business. We overslept and awoke to knocking at our door. It was almost 11:00 AM, checkout time.
We got to the front desk at 11:02. They told us we were late checking out and they were not going to return our $100 cash deposit. If we checked out at that minute they would only return $25.00. We took the room another night so the $75 they were going to keep anyways wouldn’t be for nothing. We were 2 minutes late. It was outrageous.
There were no towels in our room; you had to ask for some. Also no phones in the rooms.
The bed was very nice. The remote control to the TV didn’t work.
This is somewhere you might stay if you had no other choice. The owners are

The hotel is completely open at the parking lot, which
makes me feel unsafe, the rooms are on the second and third floors. the room was clean but the furniture is very old and a little bit damaged the chair had a lot of dirty spots the vending machine did not have water.
We really liked staying , it was comfortable and clean, and no noise, Only thing we didn’t like as soon as you enter it smells like weed, cigarettes. Also it shows they have Free Breakfast which THEY did not have nothing at all so it’s not true
No clean rooms specially the bathrooms bets the holl room no clean

Pretty typical for what you get for this price in this area. The good: Nice very large TV with good reception. Generous amount of shampoo and soap provided. Shower was comfortable. Bed was comfortable, though not exceptional. The pool looked nice, but I didn't use it. The bad: Coffee maker in room, but no coffee or coffee cup?!? I used it anyway, since I had my own Starbucks Vias and a coffee cup. It worked, but leaked water onto the counter badly. Broken tile in backroom; not dangerous, just unsightly. Generally the facilities looked run down, though it is obvious that spot repairs have been done in places. Overall, I would stay there again if on a very tight budget.
On the outside, you can see it's not the newest of places but looked like it should be okay. Desk was really friendly and nice. Now let's talk about the room. Room was in disrepair with no working bathroom door (pocket door stuck in wall), shower had non stop running faucet and not just a drip but very slow flow and a broken shower head holder, Bed was medium firm and not new, headboard was shredded like a dog scratched it up, and fabric chair was stained with large wet spot staining. The hallways smell like weed. Breakfast was two choices of kids cereal, bread slices, gallon of milk and gallon of Sunny D. Coffee was what i chose (weak). Price was almost the lowest offered. If you just need a roof for a night and on a budget, maybe consider that may be why things are not as well kept but they seemed to try with what they had. I've seen worse for more money. Even with all this, the staff made me feel like it wasn't so bad when i left.
