Sleep Inn & Suites Bakersfield North

Good Value for Bakersfield I like this Sleep Inn location. It is a 2 .5 star that includes a nice breakfast. It is a step up from the usual Motel 6, but not as nice as a Hampton Inn. I have stayed here multiple times, and have been happy. The hotel has an elevator and a luggage cart. King size beds don't seem to be available, so you either have to choose a room with one queen or two queens. There is a fridge and microwave. The closet in our room was very small. But overall, I like this Sleep Inn location and would stay here in the future.

Sleepwalking Inn Sleep Inn in Bakersfield is, well, asleep. Calling them to assist with directions, I was told they didn't know where they were. Once at the motel itself, the young woman checking me in seemed incoherent, making what should be a simple transaction, hard. The room itself was poorly lit. Wanting to take a bath, the plug leaked, not allowing it to fill. The biggest joke was the advertised "hot" breakfast. If making toast is what makes a "hot" breakfast, then it was hot. My tea water was lukewarm. Any positives? The location is right off Highway 99, easy on and off.

horrible experience under remodeling. dusty, noise, no service breakfast was not served, hallway was so messed up. Counter staff's attitude was unkind. not clean, not safe environment. I do not recommend this hotel. avoid it.

No masks, hair in bathroom sink and seems they ration towels! Thought since we had arrived in California on our road trip across the country that the staff here would at least be wearing masks. I was wrong. The woman at the desk who checked me in was not wearing a mask. The check in was tedious and required three swipes of my credit card, (one for the room, one for a “deposit” and one for the pet fee). Each was done with touching the credit card machine that had not clearly been sanitized since the previous use. There was no hand sanitizer visible anywhere. Two people who appeared to be employees walked past me while I was at the desk, talking animatedly, neither wearing masks. The bathroom looked like it was only partially cleaned. There were short hairs in the upper edges of the sink, as if someone trimmed their hair there. Yuk. The there was a half roll of toilet paper in one holder, nothing in the other one, with no extra rolls provided. The only linens in the bathroom were two washcloths and a single bath towel. No bath mat, no face towels. When I went down to the desk to ask for more towels I was given another, single bath towel and told that that one was the last of their “extra towels”. Other reviews for this hotel indicate that the neighborhood is “sketchy” and describe disheveled people in the parking lot. I did see two men loitering by a dumpster, who then walked across the parking lot to another location. Then later two helicopters flew overhead with searchlights. It was not someplace I would want to check in late, alone. We had a room that overlooked the parking lot; this was very noisy and awakened me several times (car with loud music at 3 AM) We stayed here because they accepted pets. Never again.

Terrible Place to Stay This was booked without any research. Bad area, not clean, just the worst place I have ever been to. Terribly run down. I can not believe this is part of Choice Hotels. Do your research. It was late at night. Will never let this happen again.
