The grapevine was closed over Xmas break so we were stranded in Bakersfield. We were all so tired from driving in circles for over 10 hours. We tried to reserve a hotel online but everythjng was booked. So I called a few places and this motel told me they have a double bed available so we headed over. We got there and the clerk told me they just rented out their last double. However their honeymoon suite was available for double the price.... ummmm okSo we ended up getting the honeymoon suite with a king bed. The clerk said there was a nice big hot tub. Ok...She grabbed a blanket from the back and handed it to me. I knew not to expect much. Hubby basically summed it up as a place where people go to do drugs and have sex....I had to keep reminding my little kids not to touch anything. The covers and couch had cigarette holes on them, the nightstand had a oily substance on it. The heater was super noisy. The restroom with the big hot tub had blue neon lights around it. I think the restroom was the same size as the bedroom area. We took a quick shower and slept in our day clothes. I swear there were major cooties everywhere! But we were desperate to have a bed to lay on for the night. Plus one star for the clerk who took pity on us and gave us an extra blanket.

Although we didn't end up staying here, Shay was very helpful over the phone as we navigated car trouble and towing from the Grapevine. Truly appreciate him taking the time to help us from afar.

We entered this motel thinking it would be decent, since it looked good outside. The moment we entered the room, we were hit with the strong smell of bug repellent. The walls were plain with no texture to them, like buildings from the 1960's. The floor had chunks missing from the tile. We lifted up the bed covers to find dead bug bodies as well. Walls were paper thin and the doors felt very easy to break down. The smoke alarm kept chirping at us, even with a new battery. Before we realized how dirty the floor was, my bare feet were completely black with dirt. The TV also has ONE channel and will not change to any other channels using a remote. It's stuck on MTV. Not to mention the broken window in our room (picture attached below). The outlets were in a very awkward place, right above the beds. Also, there were clumps of hair and sticks lodged in the shower drain when we first arrived. The air conditioning unit was missing it's louvre vents, and was held to the wall with duct tape. Overall, not a fun experience. No wonder their first rule is "No Refunds". I regret sleeping here because now I think I've gotten some sort of rash as I cannot stop itching.

A little mom, and pop place. Kind of shabby. There are long term tweaker residents, and we were put in a room that needed work between them, not great sleep. Reminded me of horror flick hotel, but I did not wake up undead this morning.
