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.

Verify before you book😥
The room was very clean.
My issue was that the elevator didn’t work on coming down from the 2nd floor room 208 we had to call the front desk every time we needed to go back down or we had to take the stairs.Very bad on my knees😥
I booked this hotel because on the website there was a grilling area with a grill. I arrived on Friday Oct 11, 2024 with 8 ribeyes and potatoes to grill for my son birthday and family weekend and the clerk at the front desk informed me that the grill didn’t work. But when we were leaving they were replacing the grill with a new one.

constant beep from a fire closet next to our room for 2 days, our entire stay. Not sure the staff has access to that room to fix it - could be fire department only.

Overall for a one night, it was pretty great! King size bed was really comfy and soft. The room was really clean and spacious, also loved that the pull out couch had its own lil private space in the room. The staff who helped us was really helpful, kind and patient with our last min check in room. Next time we plan a trip there, definitely gonna get a room there again!!

The floor was damp and it was very sticky and humid in the room. The handles in the bathroom were noticeably rusted. I found a chunk of food on the curtains. Not what I expected for what I paid.
