Let me begin by stating that this establishment deserves 10 stars. My family and I have had to book an extended stay due to sudden unfortunate issues with our residence. The hotel is extremely well maintained, and despite current renovations the construction did not disturb us in any way. The cleaning staff is always happy to help you with anything you need. They are always happy and smiling. The staff at the front desk is exceptional. Always available to answer any questions or concerns. Parking is easy and I have always been able to find a spot, even on the weekends when it gets busy. The location is great with plenty of nearby grocery stores and restaurants. There are even big box stores within walking distance. A Walgreens store is located in the adjacent parking lot as well as a 24hr gas station. Free laundry is available and the machines are well maintained. The gym is spacious and quiet. The rooms are great. Comfortable beds, great pillows, plenty of space. Very large shower, and plenty of hot water. The kitchenette is fully stocked with dishware, flatware, and regular sized appliances. Including a dishwasher! ***The customer service manager, Morgan, was extremely helpful with the resolution of a billing error that accidentally occurred. She was attentive, kind, and very professional. The general manager, Fernando, was amazing as well. Rarely do you get to speak to a GM when there is an issue, but Fernando always made himself available. He personally assisted us often.

Great stay and remodel

Place is being remodeled currently. The room was way nicer than the pictures online. Bed was comfy, shower was good, everything was spacious and super clean. I traveled with my dogs and they were good with them too. Only thing I’d change is having a bit more green space for walking them, but given the location it was sufficient.

The hotel is being renovated they have major hot water issues. Me and my wife could not get a hot shower sundae morning. No could we get one Saturday night? This is way too much money spent tonot to be able to have a hot shower.. The mattress was very uncomfortable and the pillows as well. I myself had a very difficult time sleeping

I was pleasantly surprised by this property and my experience. I tend to strictly stay at another large hotel chain but after a negative experience elsewhere, I gave Candlewood Suites a try. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the staff was friendly. Will definitely recommend and stay here again!

The hotel is a dump! Our room had no blow dryer, they said they were on back order, really?? The front desk employees could not have been any ruder! No ice machines in the hotel. Would not recommend to anyone for the price!
