Overall this was a good stay. We were on the side facing the interstate and we could hear the tragic. At first we thought, is the window open? But of course it wasn’t. Could even hear the interstate noise from the bathroom. I would stay again if I could be sure to get a room away from the interstate. The bathtub had some black marks (like split paint) inside it. Needed to replace it. The facility was clean. The staff was helpful and friendly. The location was convenient.

If I could rate this hotel no star, I will do so. I booked a room of two queen beds via Expedia, and I sent a message via Expedia requesting a pet friendly room. When I arrived, the front desk told me that they were oversold. The only room they could give to me was a handicap room of one queen bed. Because I travel with my wife, my teenage son, she will give a roller bed. She stated Expedia never sent them the message about the pet room. They cannot put me in the other room for two beds. She asked me to call Expedia to complain. I called Expedia who contacted the hotel. The front desk called saying hotel manager offers three drinks and snack bars as the compensation. I declined it. 15 mins later, she called again saying her manager asking what I want. At the same time I was on the phone with the Expedia who wanted to talk the front desk to confirm my allegation again. I walked to front desk. I then spoke to the manager over the phone. He stated that was my fault I did call to tell them I travel with my pet. Policy is on their website. I told him I put my request when I booked the reservation. He said you just want to have a free night! I said I never said it. I asked his name three times. Then he said his business card is right in front of me. He never told me his name. He said Expedia told front desk I wanted a free stay. I then questioned the front desk. Front desk told him that I never said I wanted a free night.

We arrived at the property and there was a long line of customers. The attendant explained that the property was overbooked and some would be turned away. We waited patiently and luckily received the last room of our selected type. Our room was okay. There were baby handprints on the mirror, the tub faucet had a loud, noticeable drip, and there was a sticky cup ring on one of the nightstands. We were also unable to get our towels switched out until later the next day due to a shortage of cleaning services. We expected a more upkept facility but it seems there is a major shortage of workers. This is a great and convenient location.

Okay so the biggest issue i had was having a $250 deposit because im a local as opposed to someone out of town with a $10 one. The a.c. only sorta worked and our bathtub had patch tape in it and the bottom looked like it could use a deep scrub. Also in a building that size there should be atleast 1 ice maker. It took forever for the refrigerator to make ice. And no breakfast included for the price. They do have some kind of room that u can buy stuff from though. All the staff was super friendly especially Dorothy and the main areas where clean.

We booked a double queen and had our pup with us. Expedia doesn't give the option to tell that we had our dog staying with us. Apparently, Candlewood Suites puts all dog owners on the first floor. They had no double queens available so we had to take a single king. We wanted an upper floor as we don't appreciate the noise from above. Unfortunately, there must have been a younger child's slumber party that was unsupervised right above us because the pounding and stomping went on for hours, we complained once by phone, then to the desk, they said they would remove the guests if we had another complaint, we couldn't move because all rooms for dogs owners were booked. So we decided to pack up and leave at 10:30 pm on the first night and they refused a refund. I am going to demand a refund. They could have moved the guests above us to another room as when I checked in the person at the front desk told me the hotel was less than half full. I will never recommend this hotel. Also, the highway noise was very loud on the first floor.

We checked in and was told one room number and given the key to that room, went to open the door and there was a guy in there already yelling why are you trying to enter my room. We were given the wrong key and could’ve been shot by the person in that room thinking we were trying to break in on them. It was a very dangerous and scary situation. Other than that once we got the correct everything else was fine.

Don’t stay here! Below is the message that I sent to the general manager and was never contacted directed. I only received an auto response apologizing for the teams service. I left you a message regarding my recent stay at the Candlewood Suites, but I have yet to hear back from you. I stayed at the Candlewood May 6th -7th. Initially I booked a suite but had to get downgraded because of the continuous issues. I couldn’t get into the room that I booked. After trying multiple times, I went back to the front desk to get a different Key. I tried the new key but still was unable to get into my room. I had to go back to the front desk and was then assigned another room. The key card provided to the new room wouldn’t open that room door either. The receptionists at the front desk then gave me a master key. I was advised not lose the key. I had to keep up with a door for my hotel room the duration of my Stay. In addition, the pool was closed, and the room smelled horrible! Thankfully, I had home spray in my car. The tub was not clean. I was completely dissatisfied with my stay at Candlewood suites.

This is very nice facilities. It seems kind of new. However, it had a couple issues that are not acceptable. The toilet seat had one of the bolts broken and the tub did not drained properly.

When we checked in, we were notified the room we booked was not available as the previous guest extended their stay. We had only one option with a smaller bed and no extra sofa bed as originally booked or we could leave. My daughter is on the spectrum and needed the extra sleeping space which was not afforded in the new room. We had to take the new booking. The pool was also broken and we were not notified prior. The new room was right on i55 and was very loud. Kids were also running up and down the halls and took over the workout room since the pool was not available. Terrible terrible stay and we will not book IHG strays again.

Business trip
I am in town on business, this is only extended stay(full kitchen) in town. It is in a good location, close to interstate, stores, hospital, movies l, etc. Everything was clean and comfortable the 2 wks I was there. I appreciate the free laundry facilities and gym. I wish the pool was heated and was disappointed to find out they no longer have the hot tub that is pictured and listed on the page. The weekends are quite a bit busier and therefore a bit more noisy. They are also in the remodeling process, which is not a graveyard employees friend. Several times I woke during the afternoon have expecting the ceiling to cave in under the weight of what ever it was being thrown around up there. Otherwise, it provided what I needed for the time I was there.

My husband stayed there and watched football while we shopped. We were so close to everything and the property had everything we wanted. The best part was the overnight front desk staff. Both nights we had the same workers and they were the absolute most friendly and helpful staff I have experienced at a hotel and we stay at nice hotels all over the country. Great job!

My stay was terrible
We were not given the two queen bed suite we were guaranteed, they said they gave them all away, and said they upgraded us to a one queen bed suite and gave us a rollaway bed. There were two adults and two children, it was not an upgrade it was a downgrade the bed was broke on one side Which was very uncomfortable, and they said they would give us a ten percent refund haven’t seen it yet. We paid ahead of time and we didn’t have a choice but to stay there, there were no other hotel rooms available anywhere else because of things going on in the town. We also had to go buy an air bed for one of the children to sleep on. Not an ideal 2 nights. The hotel was very clean and the pool was nice but sleeping was definitely not good.

When we arrived the person at the desk was friendly and informative. It wasn't till we reached the room that we were disappointed. The room smelled as if someone had been smoking in the room. It was hot and the air-conditioning was not on just the fan was running. The mattress was not comfortable felt broken down on my side anyway. and the security swing lock on the door was broken. Internet on the 4th floor was non existent. we could see the wireless but no internet at all the hole time we were there, even though I let the desk know nothing changed. If you had to ask me if we would stay there again I would say no. We will be making several trips to the area over the next several months and will not use this hotel again.
