Clean and comfortable room. Misleading listing. I booked this hotel for the spa and pool. The spa was closed for the 4th of July holiday. Front desk said the adjacent pool was unaffiliated to the hotel…so no pool access either. Convenient location if you are golfing at Forest Akers, but otherwise, you’ll need to drive to restaurants. It’s a clean, quiet, and inexpensive place to stay. Consider other options if you require additional amenities.

The check in process was so fast and friendly. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The lobby has a small convenience store area that was very well stocked also. If we're ever in Lansing we'll definitely come back!

Front desk was abandoned upon arrival. Two other parties ahead of me had been waiting a while so I left to get dinner and checked in an hour later.
Room was great for the price, spacious and clean.

This hotel is an older property but has been well maintained and looks as though the rooms have had a recent renovation. Facilities and room where clean and well maintained. The Market area with snacks and drinks is across from the front desk and was well stocked. The setting of the hotel was really nice, it backs up to the Forest Akers West golf course and almost feels rural. About 3 miles from Grand River drive but a great value. Enjoyed my stay!

Very much liked almost EVERYTHING at this hotel. When entering my room, noted that the shape of the room — not the usual rectangle — gave this unit an illusion of space! Nothing felt cramped. Besides being very clean, feeling of airiness, very comfortable bedding and bed, small kitchenette with full-size refrigerator, Adequate work area, lots of lighting and electric plugs.

Then add lots of “little” extras: gratis coffee 24/7 with variety of snack foods available for purchase also 24/7. Free self-laundry.

Excellent desk staff, helpful and friendly. Not a problem changing my check-out date a couple of times.

Feels like being out in the country while still being close to visits and activities in Lansing and East Lansing. Gym and golf, walking area right there. Planning to stay here whenever I visit the area.

I booked 2 days and the 2nd night, my partner and I had to work 3rd shift, so I requested a late check out of 1pm and told that would not be an issue. I received a call at 11:45 AM from the management telling me it wasn't ok and if I wasn't out by 12:30 I'd be charged. I'm a disabled full time wheelchair user, so it takes me a long time to get ready. So, I had to wake my partner up and we had to find a way to basically do the impossible or be charged even though the staff made the mistake and not us. I had planned on coming back due to the property and location being good but I doubt that will happen now. Extremely extremely unprofessional and rude. Absolutely and unequivocally unacceptable behavior from any hospitality business.

I needed to stay nearby the hospital, and this location provided a clean and safe place to get a good night's sleep. I will say that the hotel and room are a bit outdated and the room itself kind of smelled (not dirty, but stuffy/old), but I got the rest I needed and the reception staff were nice.

Front desk staff was rude during check in and overcharged me for the room. Online rate was 144, she charged me 244 and said the rate listed online was incorrect, refused to adjust. It was late after a horse show so we don’t have time to locate another hotel. Rooms are outdated, spring mattress on pull out couch was terrible.

My issue with this place is prices. Especially for only offering one bed. The cupboard is extra expensive. With them offering the amenities that they do bring your own food and drinks, wayy cheaper. Place is fairly clean, no issues there. Had a problem with a wet floor and that was taken care of right away! Someone replced the garbage disposal and didn't remove the knockout. Wasn't offered an upgrade or discount for the inconvenience. Stay here every year for the stallion expo which is convenient. Overall, not a bad place to stay and i do recommend it.

Walked into the room and it was a blast of heat. It was 78 degrees. Why waste energy like that. Room was very clean. At 6 A.m. on new ywars day a snow plow was clearing a parking lot right outside our bedroom window for 45 minutes. Come on who needs to be woken up that early. The bedroom was freezing cold as no vents in the room. Summer must be unbearable heat with no vents for air conditioning. These peoblems made a very unenjoyable no rest stay. Never again.

We really liked our room setup - small kitchen living room and bedroom. Worked great for us as we were visiting our son so he could come and sit and chat with us - much nicer than a hotel room. Some things were antiquated - no USB plugs, just standard electrical, had Direct TV but could not see info on Guide to tell what movies/shows were even on. But it was a nice place with plenty of parking.

Internet was 95% unreliable. I asked about it at the front desk and was told \"were switching over our internet right now and you probably wont have internet in that area of the building\". No offer of a resolution, nothing. The showerhead only faces to shoot water all over the floor beneath the glass closure. The towel range fell down when I took a towel. Nothing but sheer curtains to draw across the window even on first floor rooms 5 feet away from pedestrians and parked cars. Ive stayed in BWs before and this isnt a franchise thing, it was definitely just this this place.

Staff were lovely, place was very clean. Only two complaints: we stayed in room 302 and the bedroom door to the living room wouldn’t close so we had to keep the door open. Also, there were four of us who stayed in the suite, two people slept on the pull out couch and the mattress was so thin you could feel the mattress springs.
For a group of 2 people the place is perfect.

Very Good Accommodations

Our room had everything we needed and it was very clean, organized and had everything we needed. We appreciated having a refrigerator which we used for leftovers and made ice so we could keep them cold on out way home. It was nice to have coffee available. Our only complaint was the soft mattress but it’s impossible to have mattresses that everyone prefers. I’ll

We had a great stay at Candlewood. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We asked for rollaway and extra towels, and they provided quickly and happily. The coffee machine at the lobby is awesome, brewing freshly grinded coffee that tasted great. The only drawback is that there is no dining place within walking distance. But it’s short drive to MSU and nearby restaurants. There is also a full size refrigerator, electric stove and dining wares and even dish detergents in the room. A laundry room too. The room rate is very reasonable. So a great place for a longer stay too. Very happy with the hotel and will come back in the future.

Unexpected conveniences!

Room was very nice with more conveniences than expected. Bed was comfortable. Full size appliances were unexpected but very nice. My only con was not the fault of the hotel. Was on floor 1 (ground level) next to an exit and half-wall by our room’s window. A small party of loud drinkers hung out at that wall from 8pm to 11pm talking and laughing loudly so we had to close our shades and couldn’t fall asleep until they left. That was unfortunate since I had been up since 4am and in meetings all day and just wanted to go to bed early because I had a headache. Otherwise room was great, we’ll definitely stay again and just ask for a second or third floor room.
