The property was good. Our phone never worked in our suite. It wouldn’t be a problem until I needed to reach out about a room service I had placed at the bar earlier and was taking longer than expected. We didn’t get our order until 40 mins later and my phone never got even looked at after reporting it. Other than that, everything was good. Just wished they had put more than 2 large towels.
Condition of my phone during my stay.

Our stay at the Padre Hotel, Bakersfield CA

The hotel overall is very good. The beds are comfortable but the pillows ( there is 4 pillows on the king bed) go down to nothing. No support whatsoever. In my room there was an ottoman at the end of the bed. The ottoman is black and so is the carpet, my husband took a horrible fall in the middle of the night. Not safe!!! The coffee shop serves excellent coffee, And the restaurant, although limited menu, had tasty food. The room service is very good too! I’ve stayed at this hotel twice and both times had problems with my room not getting cool enough! This time I had to use a maintenance fan to be able to cope with the heat! The service staff overall is 5 star, from reception, valet, cleaning and so forth! Very friendly, professional and caring!

I enjoyed everything about the stay except dining. The room was extremely loud. The menu didn’t appeal to me. I had breakfast at the cafe in the morning. It was outstanding.
