Hotels near Gods Church of Deliverance, Kern County

Driving from the Bay Area to Death Valley, we decided to stay one night at this Marriott to break up the drive. It also allowed us to redeem a Marriott e-certificate. In our experience sometimes using an e-certificate gets you the most modest accommodation available. This was not the case here. Consistent with our profile we were given a room on the 8th floor looking south toward the mountains. Granted we were also looking over the back parking lot but we believe that was better than overlooking the busy street in front of the hotel. We found the room to be well appointed and up-to-date. We were frankly a little surprised given other reviewers more critical comments. We admit we were probably fortunate that there were no events at the adjacent convention center so things were probably a little slow in the hotel anyway. Regardless, we were delighted to have registration allow us an early check-in (at 2:00 pm). It allowed us enough time to explore the city a little before going out to dinner. Self-parking, at no charge no less, was convenient and allowed us easy access into the hotel right near the elevators. It was a perfect layover experience.

Good breakfast, short stay

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!

I decided to try the Doubletree again after a bad experience at the Padre. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I quit staying at the Doubletree for business a couple years ago due to different reasons, but glad I came back. The hotel is in a convenient location for me, has good parking, and several dining options nearby. Their bar/restaurant menu is somewhat limited, but the food I did have was great and the service was good and friendly. The hotel and rooms have been completely remodeled and have a more modern feel. They have a great fitness center on site as well. All in all a great stay and will be my go-to place to stay in Bakersfield when on business.

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.

Friendly staff, clean room, good breakfast, free parking

I stayed here last Dec 2021 and on my way to assist with a fire as a volunteer with the Red Cross. I booked this hotel via Priceline. When I went to check out of Priceline the screen told me ”the room rate was no longer available” so I went back into the Priceline portal (within the same session) and booked the next available room option at this hotel. On arrival, front desk person, Tina insisted I double booked. I explained the problem and she was ”very quick” to wipe her hands of the problem saying ”if I had of booked the hotel through them she could have done something otherwise take it up with Priceline.” It just doesn't make sense a single traveler would book two rooms! She insisted the only person that could decide if I warranted a refund was Manager, Abigail Murray. When you call for Abigail she is never there nor does she respond to emails! I'm told she's only there two days a week. In the end, Priceline said they couldn’t refund the money owed to me until Baymont authorized the reversal and they claim Baymont refused to credit me back. In my mind, I’ve been double charged and Wyndham/Baymont has STOLEN my money and has been paid twice for services never received. I’ve NEVER received such awful customer service from a Manager of a hotel and someone who has gone out of her way to ignore my reasonable requests and concerns! Simply put, this hotel does NOT deserve your or my business! Please don’t reward them by booking your hotel needs at this location.

Good balance of price and accommodation.

A typical motel is the foothold on the road from Death Valley to Sequoia National Forest Park. The town is not big, so the supporting facilities near the hotel are relatively complete. There are supermarkets and restaurants. Parking is also very convenient, just at the door of the room. The room has two floors. The front desk will ask you whether you want to go upstairs or downstairs. We chose downstairs if we had more luggage. The staff are very nice. There is a refrigerator and a microwave in the room, and you can prepare some simple meals for the next day in the big scenic area
