Originally had our room of a 1 BR mixed up and not available had us in a 2 queen room. Talked front desk & they had no 1 BR available. Was going to cancel but decided to wait & see if they did anything next day. They rearranged their reservations the next day & moved us to the room we had reserved. Anyone can make a mistake, it is how it is corrected that counts and they corrected their error. Great front desk staff. Many restaurants nearby.

The elevator stopped working when I was there. I was only going downstairs because my key wasn’t working. The manager asked when I was checking out which I thought was weird since he had to pull me up to get my card to work. I had to walk up and down the stairs afterwards cause they couldn’t fix the elevator. The lady that checked me in was extremely nice nice and helpful on my checkin day

Nice place.

Nice room, very comfortable. My only dissatisfaction with this chain is that they don't offer a breakfast. That's the main reason I rarely stay at Candlewood. If the hotel next to them (where I regularly stay) had not been full I would have stayed there. It's a nice property, though.
