First, the buisness center. You will be charged to use it. Expect to pay for use of computer and seperate charges for the fax/printer/scanner. What nonsense is this? The credit card swiper will remind you of this when you enter. Also, the nightclub on site was the dumbest idea. Expect LOUD noise even on the weekdays. If your room faces the ...
The check-in staff was actually very friendly and efficient. If you have limited needs this place is probably O.K.
My issue had to do with the internet. My room had no cable to connect, so I called the front desk to request a cable; they said an "engineer" would be right up... well, after 20 minutes and no response I ...
We stayed at this property for the XPSL Paintball Tournament. All of the employees from the check-in clerk to the maids were very helpful and friendly. We were given awesome warm chocolate chip cookies upon check-in, which was appreciated after a 4 hour drive to get there. Our room wasn't ready yet, but that's OK, we were early. We went to ...

Doubletree Disappointment
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/05/06
The staff was helpful. I had to change rooms because they had shampoo the rug in my room and the rug was still damp and strong order of rug cleaner. The parking lot was in great need of repair and very dirty. The room was clean, but the bathroom floor was not clean it could have used a good scrubbing. I would not recommend to anyone, I expected ...

Very disappointed
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/26/06
It was nice but I expected a lot more from a Doubletree Hotel. I spent $160 for 1 night for a "romantic getaway". It did not explain exactly what that was. Found out it was nothing more than a slightly oversized king room with a view of the pool. I have stayed in rooms the same size, the same amenities and the same service for about ...
I stayed here for 3 weekends for business, but my hubby accompanied me. The rates are fair compared to adjacent hotels. I preferred to stay at a large hotel rather than a smaller one. At check-in they give you a very DELICOUS warm cookie. Nice touch. The rooms are okay. I tried both a single and a double room. I loved the double room - so much more ...

Avoid it on the weekends!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/26/05
Nice place on the inside and the rooms were just remodeled from what I heard. The night club is something to stay away from. The drunk should-be-in-college crowd that gathers there on Friday and Saturday night seems so out of place for a hotel this nice. My wife was harassed in the lobby because some girl clubbing thought she was staring at her ...
Saturday night retro party with local radio station - great service and fun. There's not many places to go out to on the weekends in Bakersfield. The Doubletree is a nice place. Club Odyssey is a great place to to to. Overall it is clean and has great service. The rooms are very nice - I recommend them to family and friends when visiting Bakersfield.
I have been here a few times for different reasons. I booked a room for a meeting, everything was waiting for us just as I ordered it. Our company had our Christmas party there and it was a fun night with everything taken care of. Some of us girls went to the buffet lunch, which was scumptious. It is a comfortable, quiet setting in the courtyard. ...
