We were looking for a place to stay over between San Francisco and newport beach in order to watch the Super Bowl. We also needed a hotel that would take dogs. There is a fee, but the website identified that. The room was laid out very nicely with kitchen area, sitting area with sofa and chair, then of course the... More

Got a studio room for 3 people. The room was adequately large & clean but totally undecorated and stark. An adequately equipped kitchen is best for reheating. The bed was comfy. The toilet, sink and shower are all in a single bathroom with poor ventilation. The temperature control was good. There is no WiFi in the room, only in the... More

I was amazed at the size of the kitchen and the room overall! I stayed here for 3 days on business and chose this place for an in-room business meeting. I was able to seat 4 other people comfortably for the entire day and provide snacks/drinks since I had a refrigerator, microvave, stove, and dishwasher. The rooms are spacious, the... More

I stay here one week every month and have for years. I had stayed at the Sheraton Four Points on California Ave and was disappointed that their service had gone downhill. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The food i.e. breakfast has improved in the last few months. I like the convenience of the location right across the street... More

We chose the Residence Inn Bakersfield based on stays at other Residence Inn locations, not from reviews by others. Boy are we glad we stayed here. The property is very attractive and well maintained, beds are comfortable, and the service from check in to check out was outstanding. The front desk staff, especially Varerie, were very curtious and professional. The... More

Showed up after making my online reservation to discover that Residence Inn now charges a $100 "deposit" (nonrefundable) for a dog. I was not informed of this when I made my reservation. More

My wife and I stayed here as the result of a Priceline booking. I appreciated the size of the room and the apparent upgrades to it. The room had a large screen tv, and was well-appointed, the the bed was too firm for me. My wife appreciated the firmness of the bed however. The kitchen appliances appeared to be modern... More

I haven't had occassion to complain about a Marriott property before, and I'm surprised Marriott would let its brand be so badly compromised by this tawdry two star budget motel masquerading as a Residence Inn. It's next to a rail line, and we were constantly awakened by freight train whistles throughout the night. We booked a two bedroom suite because... More
