Not in a good area. People walking around the lot looking like they’re dealing drugs. Rooms had a mildew/musty smell. Front desk was rude. This shows as a 2 star hotel.. I wouldn’t give them a single star. Never again. As a whole Candlewoods have gone way down hill but this takes the cake. If you need a comparison think Econolodge or Rodeway Inn.

Google tells me that this is a two star hotel sandwiched between the three star Hampton and HI Express, but the honest truth is that I have spent hundreds more dollars a night for rooms that I have felt less at home in. It’s not fancy nor does it have daily housekeeping, but what it does have are full kitchens, dish ware, and a laundry room. While the amount of trouble that having those amenities on hand has saved me is considerable, where this place truly shines is in their customer service.
I can tell you without a doubt that this small hotel is punching far above its weight and will be my go-to lodging any time I need to visit the area.

Excellent customer service and Jennifer at front desk was professional and friendly. We were driving through from Houston Tx and this was our first visit to a candlesuites hotel. It was a great experience and we highly recommend.

I thought this deserved a 5 star review, but the manager (I think Wendy?) went above and beyond to extend my stay during a bad weather event. She took care of my reservation even during a system outage. Thought I had to move rooms but they let me keep my 1 bedroom. Great service 👍
