This was our first adventure at a Candlewood Suites. We were soooo impressed. The rooms (especially the beds) are stellar, the cleanliness was exceptional, the parking was ample... all-in-all a great night's sleep.

Have stayed there twice in the last month and both times there have been people running through the halls at night time being extremely loud running back and forth inside and outside until 3am, partying and blasting music outside until 3am. Looks like management isnt concerned with these activities ongoing all night until 3am. The hotel is super nice and I really like it but these kind of things going on without action from mangament will drive people away. Many of us were staying there for work and all of us have the same complaints in the morning forcing us to look elsewhere

Charged my card the full price of the room before check-in. Traveling for over 4hrs and still 3hrs away from the hotel. Called them and was put on hold 3 times, when asked why my card was charged they said it was their policy to charge a temporary hold. Other IHG hotels I've been to don't charge your card a temporary hold ($50-150) until you check-in, this was $220. Told them that I'm traveling on official business and I was going to use a different card at check-in. They said they would charge the new card and release the "temporary hold" in 3 to 5 days. Thanks but no thanks! I have been an IHG rewards member for over 10years and I won't be coming back to this location.
