This is basically a Motel 6 with a Hilton badge on it. The hallway carpets were dirty and stained. The room didn’t have a coffee maker or microwave. The shower didn’t have enough water pressure. The breakfast was a joke. It was basically just bagels.

Sheila is amazing, but I got there late after midnight and i put in a reuest for a room on the 4th floor 2 days in advance overlooking Travel lodge-this time I was on the second floor facing the china buffet and I did not like it so this week I am staying at another location. Will try to get there earlier and connect with Sheila she always takes really good care of me since I am a regular.

Our room was very clean and comfortable. It was perfect for our one night stop in Bakersfield . I would stay there again. I was disappointed they did not have a coffee pot or microwave in the room. One needed to go to the lobby for coffee/tea.
