Howard Johnson by Wyndham Bakersfield

The guy who owns this place is renting out rooms with his stuff in it he lives there in the hotel there was drug addicts all over doing drugs cigarette smoke and people smoking in the hallway filled going into every room homeless people hanging out in the parking lot and around the hotel do not go here trust me

Passable

Front door kept propped open at night with no security - soiled sheets stained with brown spots cigaret holes and hard clumps inside- one person staff - toilet flooded I was forced to clean up with towels and small kitchen mop- janitor came in plunged the toilet then left without fixing the issue then handed me a mop to clean - was so loud in the hallway every night you could hear everything if someone knocked on the door next to you even 2 doors down it was as if they knocked on your door - one night someone entered my room noticed me in the bed and I must me in the wrong room then left- no ice machine - felt more like a homeless shelter than a hotel. On the positive they did let me check out late and the air conditioning worked great. I felt bad for the one guy on staff because he seemed like he meant well but just over worked and under staffed.

Not recommended at all very unsanitary and a lot of traffic around

Arrived at the hotel and saw a tall person in a short red dress strolling up and down outside the reception. She pointed out (in a fairly deep voice) where the night window was. I rang and after several minutes someone came. Check in took several minutes while he arranged a room for me - he sent me to a neighbouring motel 200m or so down the road. I assume the owners have two (or more) hotels and it is luck as to which one you get. Room was OK. Rather shabby, but nothing really wrong with it. Would have been nice to have a microwave oven or at least a kettle to boil water in. Internet didn't work.

Very nice staff is helpful and friendly and I am

Good

There was parking

Staff asked for cash when booked room through hotels.com, homeless roaming the parking lot…just never felt safe

One on the worst that I never stay!

The staff was super nice and very helpful. He went out of his way to take care of us.

I check out of this dump and still charge the 3 day. The owner is a scammer. He charge when I check out to another hotel. Victor Singh the scammer

The owner hes very sweet an understanding great place Nothing at all

Sketchy. Felt like it was a trap house. Homeless people outside and inside. Loud and felt unsafe. Don’t stay!

Location very sketchy. TV & phone hooked up but didn’t work. Door dead bolt didn’t lock. Smoke alarm missing. Very loud neighbors and dogs across hall ALL THRU NIGHT and no phone to call front desk. Desk clerk friendly but spoke no English.

No, just don't!

n/a dirty

Check in was a bit suspicious wanted it pay with a credit card, they wanted cash, check in was me talking to the manager on a cell phone, cash was given to the person covering the desk. Over charged $15 (no change available. Room was probably worse room ever! I will never stay at a HOWARD JOHNSON again.

Exceptional

No staff available most often. Had to wait for staff to open the office for check in. The surroundings, parking, hallways, stairs are dirty. Tiles in the bathroom were cracked. Noisy AC/Heater. Door entrance handle needs repair. No cups available for the coffee maker. Microwave was dirty and need repair. Drawers were dirty...
