Manager at night is a jerk off

The guy that works at night when I had my reservation he told me he was out of room and didn’t want to help me so I ask for his name he didn’t want to give it to me and gave me attitude it was on a Tuesday night so I end up canceling my reservation going to another hotel

This is a good stay for the price. I stay here during the work week. So, a fridge and microwave in the room is perfect. Close to fast food and a Walmart Super Store. I get my grocery shopping for the week on Monday after work.

I use this particular vagabond quite frequently, but lately it's gone downhill not necessarily the staff but the overall condition of the rooms, and you know it's getting bad when the hotel guests are trying to panhandle money off you, it's not enough that you have to worry about the ones that are outside that are homeless!

This property is 100% horrible. We booked a room and told them we will be paying nightly. We got the bottom floor i'm disabled and I have a service.Dog and a heart condition. Went to go pay for the room the next day with no warning. They said, no, we've already booked that room while we were still in it with no warning. And I was in La, and the hotel is in Bakersfield, so I had to drive back from l. AI wasn't able to get out by 11 o'clock because they did not inform us that They booked a room out from under us and then on top of it to make matters worse. I made. I tried to walk right in our room at 9 o'clock in the morning and woke our children up. And they are toddlers, so you know, they didn't go back to sleep.
