Top Bakersfield Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Bakersfield

Hyatt Place Bakersfield

8/10 Good
"Unfortunately due to staff shortages and corporate financial decisions, my room was short soap to wash hands and since we were 4 people, we needed to make multiple trips due to towel and soap shortages. Really Hyatt? Do better. If a room can hold 4 people, make sure amenities are for 4 people or at least give them the towels if you know the room is only set up for 3. Again Hyatt do better."
