It's a beautiful hotel and even has kitchenette in the room. Parking is limited though. They have an agreement with a neighboring motel for overflow parking though.

Friendly staff, clean and comfortable accomodation

The room booked was not available at check-in due to the hotel having had to move another guest. The gal at the front desk was super friendly, apologetic, and set us up with another equally acceptable room. She, and the clerk on duty at check-out in the morning were very pleasant and efficient in their role. Room was very clean and comfortable. We were disappointed the coffee service in lobby in the morning was not available as the machine was out of order. We would stay again.

There where a few cosmetic issues in my room ( porcelain lid to the toilet tank had a large chunk out of it exposing the water in the refill tank) but nothing that I would say that would prevent me from staying here again. The property was clean safe and easy to get to. The front desk staff were both excellent! And my bed was very comfortable and my stay was extremely quiet.

We gave Candlewood more chances than they deserved. In 4 reservations there, (two trips a few years apart) they got our prepaid reservation right. The first time, we got the right room, but the stove didn't work. They sent us to another room that was 1/2 the size without adequate sleeping arrangements. We cooked dinner in that suite - had to clean it and then went through the halls with our dinner to go back to the first room to eat and sleep. Yet, we decide to give them another chance one this trip. Sorry to say it was no better. On this trip, both times we arrived to check in with our prepaid reservation, they didn't have an appropriate room for us and there was nowhere for us to sleep. We ended up scrambling to find a room in another hotel. They only refunded ONE night of our reservation. (we paid for two in total this trip) The desk clerk was unwilling to spend 2 minutes on a computer so we Might be able to get our money back on the second night. The experience they put us through is definitely not what Anyone would want to ruin their vacation with.

Staff were not friendly & did not prioritize the fact that our room had a NONWORKING TOILET! It did not flush & water ran continuously. After 2 calls to the front desk hours apart & nothing being done, I called IHG and notified Expedia. They moved us to another room that was already occupied, as evidenced by the man sleeping in the bed upon us opening the room door. Staff response to situation was ridiculous! We sat in lobby with our things for an hour until they finally cleaned another room for us. All the while we missed some of the wedding events that we were in town for and spent so much money on. I was so upset. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!

Good place to stay if you dont care about security

Front desk was very helpful. However, was charged for a nights stay even though the locks to the room didnt work and we left after 4 hours when we found out. We had to leave due to no security to our room. Could push the door right open. The hotel knows this is an issue. Stay away if possible.

When I checked in there was nobody that could speak English at the desk. I waited at least 5 minutes before someone came in that could handle getting me checked in. Also there apparently rooms are not made up every day (they said weekly)_ I either missed this notice when making my reservation or Expedia did not show this in the listing. Had I undersatood this I would have made another choice.

The front desk attendant at check in was very polite and welcoming. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. I was on the 4th floor so it was quiet. Not sure if it was because I was on the 4th floor towards the end but had cold showers every morning for the first 3. The front desk attended said to let the hot water run for 15 min in the morning before getting in the shower. That helped but wound up turning on the shower, the bathroom faucet and the kitchen faucet and got hot water after about 10-15 minutes. Stayed 11 nights. Was told when I checked in that seeing that I was staying so long housekeeping would not come until the 7th day but if I needed fresh linens to go to the front desk. Was there 11 nights never received housekeeping services. Being there 11 nights it was nice ti be able to cook dinner every night and not have to eat out every meal. I would stay there again but it wouldn’t take much effort on there part to make the experience better.
