SureStay by Best Western Bakersfield Central
Staff were very kind. Check in took awhile and there was difficult situations happening with guests but the front desk lady kept her patience with everyone. Got to our room and everything was clean.

Holiday Inn & Suites Bakersfield by IHG
Breakfast : typical. Second day: empty coffee pot. I had to ask. The waiter brought a coffee carafe and set it on my table. That was nice. I couldn’t find the spoons. Parking: excellent. I parked my car right outside my window. Pretty safe.
