Horrible Experience and False Advertising
We booked a room thru Expedia at the Vagabond Inn in Bakersfield, CA and when we got there to check in they gave us a room that smelled of sewer gas. We went back to the office and asked for a different room and they gave us another room that the air-conditioning unit didn't work, it would turn on then back off immediately. And, since it was a very hot evening, we couldn't get by without AC. Also, the room was advertised with free breakfast, but after I already paid for it then we were told there is no breakfast included. So, I then asked for my money back and the hotel front desk personnel refused a refund stating we were there for 30 mins from time of checkin. This was all so disappointing and a very bad experience. We ended up going to another hotel to get a room. I am asking for a full refund of this booking from Expedia and would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The property is fairly big with ample parking. The staff is friendly for the most part. There are quit a bit of homeless in the area, but very few parts of California don't have their issues concerning them. They do have cameras though and staff does keep an eye on them so that helps. It's clean and has the amenities that are listed in the rooms, so over all it's a decent place to stay.

Pretty Gross
I did read the reviews prior to my stay but as one person stated there was grass for his dog, this was the only reason I stayed here. Upon arrival and walking my dog, i found a used syringe in the parking lot. Later that evening, there was a guy shooting up near the same spot. There was a huge presence of homeless drug addicts (I counted 18 at one time) in various stages of consciousness along with a few prostitutes peppered in the mix to give it some spice. Roaches in the room, and parking lot was covered in asphalt "dust" of sorts that transferred to my room which was annoying. No breakfast as advertised but wouldn't have eaten it anyway due to the roaches and overall cleanliness of the place. Despite all this, I slept OK with the 2 tiny lumpy pillows and shower was hot. Dried off with and old dingy towel (more like a hand towel). Next time I come to Bakersfield, this is a NOPE for me

I loved my stay there I had a wonderful experience and they have wonderful and very helpful employee like Mrs. Edie, Virginia, Chrissy, Dan, regal,they have always did what they can to help and accommodate any situation a guess had and I'm happy to say Megan has also improved on being courteous and helping guest the only issue I had was with a new girl who worked front desk graveyard shift who was being disrespectful. But as soon as management was informed the issue was taken care of immediately. My family and I have Stayed here many times and we have always enjoy are stay and will continue to makes this VAGABOND are Maine place to stay. And MRS. EDIE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

Everything was dirty. Sheets, room, everything. We had to go out and buy new sheets in order to be able to sleep. We did not even use the bathroom. Went to MacDonalds. We did not take a shower or wash up. OMG What a terrible place. because of this hotel, I rated you 7 for recommendation. You should ask for a refund and refund us the money for this hotel. My husband and I have been travelling since Aug 1st till Aug 9th. We slept in several hotels and booked them all under you. Some in my husband's name, James Halliday and some in my name. I was extremely disappointed at this hotel.
