La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bakersfield North
Lovely stay for my husband & I for 2 nights. The staff were very kind & friendly. The breakfast was nice. I believe you should get another waffle machine. The wait got kind of long for some people. Very convenient location & plenty of nice food choices right in the vicinity. I would definitely come ...
