Old and dirty.
Our room had a very old and torn chair in it. The bed was small and uncomfortable. The bathroom floor tiles were loose and coming up. The floors were dirty and stained. Nothing much good here.

Not what we expected from Candlewood Suites
Nice front desk staff. Hotel seemed fairly clean but rooms are in serious need of updates. A/C did not maintain temp, had to adjust thermostat throughout the night between 65 & 75. Bathroom fixtures obviously rusted, shower head pressure so hard it was painful, like needles. Difficult to maintain hot water. Quality of room reminded me of a Motel 6.

Worst Experience
We did not get to stay at this hotel. We were not given the room we reserved which was a king bed suite. Instead we were given a suite with a queen. There were 3 of us. When questioned the receptionist about it she said Hotels.com did not send the correct room reservation. In addition, they were out of rooms. She gave me a copy of the reservation made by Hotels.com and it right but she handwrote that we reserved a queen suite! She lied and more than likely gave my room to someone else. We arrived there at 10:20 and because of this we weren’t able to find a room at another hotel until almost midnight! This was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had at a hotel.

The elevator was working when we got there, but then once we came back it was not working and we had to call down to the receptionist (who would then take a minute or send to wrong floor) to send the elevator the the floor we were on.
