hello good afternoon from the moment of check-in. The young man Marques was awesome even though a lot was going on around him. He held it together. Gave me a nice check in and throughout my stay we had laughed and jokes and that made it really nice. I love the hotel. It will now only be staying at the Candlewood because of my visit there thank you so much for allowing me to take a long drive and be able to rest when I get there the bed was awesome even when I was leaving, I did not have a do not disturb sign in the lady that was cleaning the room walked over and gave me one. I appreciate her being attentive, listening, and being there for my knee it was an awesome. because of my visit there thank you so much for allowing me to take a long drive and be able to rest when I get there the bed was awesome even when I was leaving, I did not have a do not disturb sign in the lady that was cleaning the room walked over and gave me one.

The property needs some updating. The air conditioning was not working correctly. When we first got in the room everything was wet. The humidity was really high. Both floors were wet. Had to turn on the heat to dry everything out and then turn off the unit completely. Also the facets in the bathtub was backwards so we thought we didn’t have hot water. The front dest suggested the faucet was inverted and it was.

The condition of the hotel was very disappointing. Cleanliness and upkeep were clearly not a priority, and our expectations were not met. Worst of all, we were not told they were having issues with their fire alarm and we were woken up at 4 am by the fire alarm going off. We rushed downstairs along with other guests and given no direction or explanation after the fire alarm turned off. We all just assumed that it was a false alarm however no explanation was ever given by staff until the day after when it was time for us to check out.

This hotel was great for the time that we needed to stay. The front desk associates were great. Very friendly, hospitable, inviting, and helpful. The only thing that I didn't like was that our tub/shower wasn't very clean. There were strands of hair in it. The toilet could have used a better cleaning as well. There were yellow stains that were at the base of the toilet. Also, the door to the bathroom was not leveled and dirty looking. Other than these things, our room was good.

Don’t go there.

The ice machine in the room didn’t work and they had no ice machine stations on the floors.
We had a fire alarm in the middle of the night so we all had to stand outside for an hour and there was nothing wrong.
And upon check out I was charged hundreds of extra dollars for no reason since I had paid the full price on this platform.
Also, the towel rack in the bathroom just came off the wall. The drywall just gave way and let it fall.

Unfortunate

Hotels.com description of the hotel rooms are listed inaccurately on the website, first. The hotel allowed me to move into a room on day 3 of my stay, one that matched the correct website description. The hotel is having issues with condensation in the ductwork which has created mold or the smell all throughout. The room gave me a horrible headache daily and my animals are not feeling well as a result of the smell. I moved hotels. The fire alarm continuously goes off due to the condensation affecting the wiring. It’s alarming to deal with the loud noise early in the morning with 2 frantic pets and guests. The hotel is understaffed and needs new management to help create a safe and overall healthy environment that doesn’t violate OSHA regulations. Being in the service industry for years, you create expectations and standards of care and hospitality. This hotel is lacking and it’s unfortunate!

Good property for a value hotel. The building is kind of dated. If you are looking for a lot of USB ports for your electronics, look somewhere else. The age of the building is apparent because of old outlets, light switches, etc. They work...just a little dated. Otherwise pretty clean and the staff was great!!! Overall, a good value option.

Candlewood Suites was beautiful on the outside of the property but we had nonstop issues on our 3 night stay. Upon check-in, they told us their system was “down”. But we were able to get into the room. Studio suites are quite small. They did not offer housekeeping services since it was a 3 night stay. The first night our room key card stopped working, the room phone wouldn’t work, the WiFi wouldn’t work, and the TV completely stopped working. Shut off every couple minutes. The desk staff then needed us to come down to the desk at 8:30pm to sign more paperwork since the system was down and they needed more information on paper. The staff ended up moving us rooms late at night since nothing in our room was working. Each day the room key card stopped working and we had to get a new one. The system remained mostly down for the weekend and we watched many people stopping at the desk with issues or not being able to check-in altogether. Female desk staff wore pajamas all weekend. The good things would be a comfortable bed and nice amount of counter space. Would not stay again.

If you like Weed Smoke and Barking Dogs...

BEWARE: Though hotel staff is very friendly and accommodating, the smell a marijuana poured through the vents into our room constantly. The kennel across the street provided a soundtrack of barking dogs morning, noon and all thru the night. The beds were clean and comfortable but the bathroom was stained, dirty and had poorly patched up walls. Overall, the hotel smelled stuffy, mildewy, damp and smokey. Couldnt stay more than one night, had to move my children to a different hotel.

It was a horrible service from check-in to Check-out. Me and my family arrived Friday evening to check-in well none of the reservations paper work was printed out so we had to wait okay no big deal. We get to the room well key card did not work so we had to go back down the to service desk to get that situated. At that point we were tired and hungry so the front desk attendant express they will have it fix when we get back. We get back around 10pm and our key card still was not operational, we had to go back down at this point we were really tired and sleepy so the front desk attendant had to use his master card to let us in for tonight. Get up the next morning (Saturday) still no key card operational, we endure this the whole stay. Property manger had to hook up a computer just to open the door for each time we need to leave the property. Didn’t get ask to move to another room til Saturday night which we were to exhaust to move anll our belongings and we had an 5am flight Sunday morning. This was a very inconvenience for me and my family. Room 302 needs a major upgrade to that room. I pray they take that room off line until they are able to fix the door. I will never recommend this property to anyone.

I wish that I would have read the negative reviews before I booked. The first issue was the phone. I called before we checked in and no answer. When I arrived the front desk attendant said that when it rained that week it knocked the phones out and they were waiting on the repairman. (We stayed two days and we still had to go downstairs for trash bags and toilet tissue) When we got off the elevator to go to our room, it was extremely humid in the hallway with a mildew smell. Our room had a lot of patchwork done. There were missing tiles in the bathroom and the sink water ran real slow. The bathroom door looked as if it had been punched and they just painted over it. The good points were the bed was comfortable and the shower water was hot.
