Econolodge No Heat In Rooms Winter No heat in rooms hard to keep warm Bakersfield California

It is said you get what you pay for.. well.. the Econolodge operator in Bakersfield took that one step further by not having rooms available with a working heater.. even changing rooms did not help.. and since it was late and I was already stuck with a reservation charge on my credit card.. I slept in my clothes and overcoat as it was too cold other wise. Also, this location does not offer tv remote controls or clocks in the rooms.. the place should be condemned as it is very poor repair. Filthy rooms... and an anti-social desk attendant rendered this facility to the top of my fecal roster. It is very apparent that Econolodge's business model is abased on the very familiar one that US auto makers have practiced for too many years: For every customer lost, 7 new ones appear. So for Econolodge operators I hope they have another career lined up. This one is reaching the end of it's life cycle.
