Best motel I have ever stayed in. Owner was very friendly and efficient. Place was super-clean and well-maintained. Definitely impressed. Keep it up. Only improvement would be to have complimentary coffee in the room. I will only stay at this motel when in Bakersfield from now on!

Clean room, newer beds and cold air conditioning with “constant fan mode” to stay cool all night and drown out sounds. TV worked great. Doesn’t matter how small the room is if everything works the way you hope. Good stay.

The service was good. At first our room's air conditioning was very loud so they quickly gave us another room, They were very responsive to our needs.

Pit stop on my way to Fresno
Walls are thin so I could not sleep hearing the couple next door all night. Clean and basic, no more.

The light switches are upside down. The plumbing fixtures in the shower are reversed. The water gets hot when moved to the cold position.

I have stayed at over 100 or more Motel 6's in my 72 years but this has to be the dirtiest and most run down maintenance-wise by far! The walls, floors, tables, doors and baseboards were all trashed! Repairs to the obvious "fist punches" through walls and doors were so obviosly repaired by the many transients that live on property. They probably give them free rooms forvwork. If we weren't traveling with our 2 small dogs, we would have never picked this motel. Unfortunately, very few pet friendly motels which is sad.

First motel I walked out from. Dirty, dingy, and the clientele is horrendous. Trying to sleep and 2 or 3 different arguments happening or just that many people. There is some 6 year old kid in the parking lot cussing and yelling at someone, I'm like where is this kids parents?? Anyway. This place deserves an F rating. This place, F. F, this place.

Did not return my deposit despite leaving the room in near PERFECT condition. I KNOW because i used it for an hour to have intimacy while my mother in law was in town and everything was left like it was a new room.
