Why Comfort Suites In Bakersfield is a Great Choice When Traveling

Comfy & Quiet Comfort Suites Bakersfield

Dear Polite Travelers,

We needed a hotel stay near highways 58 and 99 in California. Luckily, we found Comfort Suites in that exact spot for a good rate. Since it’s so near a major junction, it was surprisingly quiet and very comfortable.

Basic in appearance, this hotel offers quite a bit for the money. For one, the rooms are large and well-equipped with the typical microwave, fridge, and coffee maker. But more importantly, it was spacious, clean...and quiet.

The hotel itself was adequate with a pool, hot tub, outdoor seating area, breakfast room, and fitness center. The lobby was small but, again, adequate. The real star here was the breakfast. For one, it’s the only place I’ve visited that provided gloves for our protection while using the buffet serving utensils. Although, most did not use them or wear masks in the breakfast room. Grrr... At least we did.

Breakfast was typical with potatoes, sausage, and eggs, but especially yummy due to the full-size yogurt and better than average pastry choices.

Will We Return?

Oh yeah! That’s if we are on the road south, which just maybe later this year. If all goes well, we just may make another visit to Palm Springs in early winter. Can’t wait to share it with you, my fellow polite traveler.

Hotel Review: Comfort Inn Downtown Morro Bay, CA

Old, Needs Update, but Perfectly Located Revised 4/2021 Dear Polite Traveler, I’ve always wanted to visit our central coast, an ocean town known for its big rock. Staying in a hotel one block from the coast...dreamy. The Comfort Inn Downtown is central to just about everything and overlooks a majestic bay with, yes, a huge rock. This hotel is adequate, and the staff is accommodating . Most importantly, it is inexpensive for this area, especially considering the view. Note : Follow CDC and county guidelines when visiting. Always wear your face mask when in public. Also, during the pandemic, some amenities may not be available. Please remember, this is only temporary. The Positives Proximity to the shore, the wharf, and Morro Rock Fitness center/gym equipped with up-to-date machine Guest laundry Free hot breakfast: limited Free WIFI Free on-site parking Interior corridors—excellent for cold weather C...

Pluses & Minuses of The Hyatt House Vacaville

Beautiful But Needs Adjustments to its Accessible Rooms My Dear Polite Travelers I recently read about a new Hyatt House and since I needed a short brain-tidy-vaca near my home base in Davis, CA, I ventured twenty miles west to the sprawling city of Vacaville, the shopping mecca of our general area. The Lobby/Bar/Restaurant Walking into the lobby, I noted calming tones, striking art, décor, and welcoming faces. The registration staff was delightful and efficient. The attractive bar and eating area are tastefully decorated and have ample seating areas. In fact, the entire area was so lovely that I brought many of those decorating ideas home with me. The restaurant’s menu was limited and similar to what is typically found at bars: hamburgers, pizzas… etc. I ordered a hamburger which was delivered overcooked. Grr… Accessible Room 133 First off, this is a gorgeous room filled with outstanding artwork. It includes a kitchenette, small ...

Cruise Room Review: Grand Princess L307

Comfy, Rocking Room on the Grand Princess Revised 4/2021 Dear Polite Traveler, What does a person really want in a cruise ship stateroom? Well, I suppose the answer would be different with each passenger. For my hubby and I, we wanted to be able to see the ocean and be comfortable. Since this was a relatively chilly weather cruise, we skipped a balcony room and chose an outside cabin with a window. Not many were available when we decided on an Alaskan cruise anyway. Even so, I think ours was perfect. Not too small and not too expensive. After all, this is our second Alaskan cruise, so I did not feel it granted an extravagant suite. We are not that type anyway. Note : Follow CDC and Princess guidelines when visiting. Always wear your face mask when in public. Where’s our room? We knew our room was on the Lido deck. Check. Nevertheless, we couldn’t find cabin 307. Ever...
