"Staycation"

10.0

Stayed at the Padre Hotel recently and had a great experience. The hotel has a lot of character and a cool downtown vibe that makes it feel different from the typical chain hotels. The room was clean, comfortable, and well kept, and the staff was friendly from check-in to check-out. I also enjoyed the restaurants and atmosphere around the property. Whether you’re visiting Bakersfield for work or a weekend getaway, the Padre is a great place to stay. Looking forward to coming back.

"Excellent"

8.0

Dobry standard hotelu. Wygodne łóżko. Personel uprzejmy i pomocny.

Łazienka oddzielona od pokoju szybą, którą można zasłonić jedynie firanką (przynajmniej my nie znalezlismy żadnej rolety) przez którą i tak właściwie wszystko widać (nie tylko prysznic, ale nawet korzystanie z WC) - mało komfortowe....

"Anniversary gone wrong"

4.0

When we arrived for our anniversary evening, we utilized the valet service. The valet was super helpful and very courteous to us. We made our way to the front desk, and we're delighted to find that the customer support was brilliant. Check-in was easy, and we made our way up to the room. Phone walking in the room we noticed the cleanliness of it all, remarking at what a beautiful woman was. Even with the shower voyeurism lol. We had some time to kill before dinner, so we decided to lounge about, however, that's when we noticed the issues. The bed is entirely too hard, and felt like we were laying on a stiff board. The water reservoir for the toilet would occasionally, every 5 to 10 minutes, lose water level. The float in the back would sink down, causing it to try to refill. When this happened, the mechanism would shrink loudly for about 10 seconds. With our dinner reservation coming due, we made our way downstairs and informed the front desk of the issue with the toilet. There was no reason to complain about the bed, it was what it was. The staff assured me that they would have a maintenance person investigate. My wife and I made our dinner reservation, and returned with hopes of the toilet being fixed. Upon initial return, we heard no noises. However, after about an hour after our return, the noises returned. We resolved ourselves to just endure the noise, putting on ocean sounds on our phones to drown it out. Sleep was very hard to come by. In the morning, we enjoyed a nice breakfast and coffee at the downstairs cafe. The valet were very prompt with retreating our vehicle, and we left. I am so sorry to say, there is a very unlikely chance that we will return. My wife and I understand that this may have been an isolated incident, however, it did affect our anniversary and we left slightly disheartened.
