Hotels Near California Fruit Depot in Bakersfield

This hotel is quiet! Except in the daytime when the families are enjoying the awesome pool!!! (Not a complaint btw) there are two separate buildings of rooms separated by a bridge running over mill creek. The office lady we got today was AMAZING!!!

They don’t tell you over the phone they charge a deposit of 100 a night. Stay 3 nights 300. Broken windows in rooms like 108. They don’t tell you on the phone heater for hot tub and pool Broken. Don’t answer Phone at front at all it’s silenced. Will not bring anything to your room! It’s dirty and covered in stains no one vacuums the carpets. Your not allowed to take breakfast to room and eat if anyones not feeling well in a covid environment and the staff is beyond lazy. Absolutely not like the usual Raddison. Stay at the Hilton instead it’s a dive total dirty nasty place with homeless in the parking lot and trash in the little alley behind the building. And as you can see there’s cockroaches!

I stayed at this hotel several times years ago when it was a different name and really liked the property. When I was back in the area I immediately looked it up and found different name/owner(?). Booked one night although I was going to be in the area several nights just to check it out first. I am passionate about great customer service and OMG walking in found world class customer service in April who was at the front desk. Friendly, welcoming, great personality and attitude and extremely helpful! I was already a fan of the hotel at that moment! Later in the evening I encountered another front desk person named Paul who was fantastic as well! Always helpful and smiling and a fun personality. If hotels could all clone these two employees they would have award winning customer service! The lobby is gorgeous and tranquil. It has been done in shades of beautiful soothing gray along with silver accent pieces. Seating areas are inviting and visually very nice. The room continues on with the same gray tones and made me just want to relax in there all day as it just sets the tone of serenity and calm. Extremely clean and well maintained and good sized (I had a king bed) The pool is a beautiful pool and super clean and sparkling and cabanas have been added since my last visit and a great touch. Grounds are well maintained and parking is easy. And as a note to my first night “test” stay, I am still here almost a week later!

This is a pretty new hotel. The room was large and comfortable. The staff was helpful - I had driven over 10 hours to get there and was a bit forgetful checking in but they got me through it. The hotel is across the street from a good brewery with great food. Just what I needed to rest up for another day of travel.

The overall environment of the hotel is good. There is a cookie at the check-in. The front desk staff is also very friendly. The hotel is very comfortable and the bed is large. The price is very high.

This review happen during CoVID (Feb 2022). My wife and I where visiting friends in Bakersfield. We spent one night. The hotel is located right off the freeway in an industrial area with other hotels located around it. The area around the hotel has a lot of fast food restaurants and some sit downs. But with that said we had a pleasant stay. The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. The check in process was quick and easy. They have a little shop next to concierge where you can but chips, soda, and candy. The lobby was nice and the restaurant was open (Happy to see it was open). The room was nice, clean, and with plenty of room. For one night in Bakersfield it was perfect. We would stay here again.

Good breakfast, typical American breakfast. We arrived late, and the breakfast allowed us to continue eating for a while. The hotel is a motel with the advantage of free parking, close to the costa, gas station and several fast food restaurants. I came out of Death Valley and went to San Francisco to find a place to rest.

I will start my review by saying most of the Staff was very courteous and accommodating. I was impressed by the outward appearance of the Hotel and the front desk area. Cons It pains me to have to list the cons with this Hotel because I don't ever like leaving a bad review that said, I am going to address a few issues in hopes that someone in charge will see this review and initiate some changes. First after we checked into the room, I went in the restroom to blow my nose and to my surprise there was NO Kleenex or any other type of bathroom tissues in the tissue holder on top of the bathroom counter. Though it was an inconvenience, I didn't think it was too big a deal so I grabbed some toilet tissue. I then proceeded to unpack some of my things to get a shower and noticed that there were NO washcloths left where the bath towels were located under the sink! Luckily, I had a couple with me in my luggage so me and my girl used those to clean with when we showered. that was very disappointing the say the least. Just imagine if we didn't have washcloths! Now to my third issue.....Clean, mold and mildew ”FREE” bathrooms are HUGE for me because mold and mildew that can be a health issue and secondly, it makes the shower look unclean and unsightly. Not a good look at all especially for the price of a Hyatt Regency! I took pictures of the mildew and it was gross. Bleach or some type of Industrial cleaner would work wonders. And of course last but definitely no least, my lady saw a young lady named Crystal in the restaurant are who was carrying some glasses around in a glass carriage and asked ”Crystal” if she could grab a glass and said that ”Crystal” rolled her eyes at my girl because she about the glass. How rude! We are very respectful people and harbor ill will toward no one. I am sorry but it is because of the issues listed about I gave the review that I did. Respectfully Kevin

Breakfast is relatively simple, but bread, milk, ham, egg patties and other varieties are also considered complete, room hygiene is absolutely OK, although close to the airport but very quiet, passers-by definitely recommend this
