Top Kern County Museum Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Bakersfield North

8/10 Good

"Not enough parking close to the front of the hotel. Too many transient’s around loitering and vandalizing vehicles. Need security and more shade for vehicles. I found condom and food wrappers on the side of the night stand which was disgusting. The room was not clean thoroughly. The drain in the shower drained slow. The toilet didn’t have enough water pressure to properly flush in one setting. Exterior parking lot needs to be cleaned for sure. Not enough options for breakfast. Not enough tv options either. Suite was rather small. No circulation of air in the room. It feels stuffy. Needed a lot of repairs done in room (410). Maintenance did a horrible job on repairs throughout the room."
