Ended up in the rooms over the bridge in the back, there was no gate to access the street and I had to walk back over the bridge and out through the entrance to get to the street to walk to the convention center which was very inconvenient.

Bakersfield Marriott at the Convention Center
This is a really nice hotel. The staff members were super friendly and accommodating. The lobby and bar area were really nicely decorated. The restaurant had a huge selection of foods, as well as a kids menu with puzzles and an area to color, however they didn’t have any crayons which was a bummer ...
