    The ice machine was down in our building so I had to walk over the aqueduct to the next building to get ice, but the walk was so tranquil I forgot it was a hassle and enjoyed the evening.

    There was a mix up with our registry and they sorted it out right away and got us into the room I had reserved with no problems.

    Potential guests should be aware that the hotel looks nothing like the photo, and is actually a set of mid-century standalone chain hotel buildings, which are quite worn. There are no lifts in any of the buildings, so those with mobility issues or heavy bags should verify a downstairs room at checkin. There is no hill to be found anywhere within miles of its location; this is Bakersfield, after all. Breakfast is not included with the room, and while there is a restaurant attached to the hotel, there are no other restaurants, or any stores, anywhere nearby.

    The room was well outfitted with quality toiletries in the shower, a microwave and large mini refrigerator, as well as a k-cup coffeemaker. The beds were very comfortable. The bath also had both a safety mat and grab bar. The main lobby has a plush seating area, a coffee bar, and there is a decent sized outdoor swimming pool. The hotel is literally across the street from the Amtrak station, so very convenient if one is traveling by train. Desk service was efficient, and the clerk asked if I wanted extra coffee pods and I would like a paper receipt, both of which were appreciated.

    My room on the first floor had a sliding door to the parking lot. Because of the location, there were a decent amount of unsavory folks walking down the streets at night and the gate was left open until late. Even though the door was barred closed, it did feel a little unsafe staying alone.

    The property was nice, clean, and very conveniently located 2 blocks away from Mechanics Bank Arena. It was the perfect place to stay for the wrestling State Championships. The front desk staff was absolutely lovely and extremely accommodating. They generously allowed me to park my car there the morning before check-in, and also accommodated an early check-in time, even though they were extremely busy with the event. The price was about double the value, but that wasn’t unexpected due to the proximity to the event. The rooms were large, if slightly dated, and the lobby had an espresso machine. Breakfast was not included, but available at the restaurant next door for $10. Overall, it was perfect for what we needed and I was very happy with our stay.

    Ice machine was not working in the same building my room was in. The fact that I was told my car would be safer in the front parking lot because there was only cameras in the front not in the back.
