Most hotels we stayed in had a small refrigerator,coffee pot, and microwave. The Candlewood Suites had a large refrigerator and Microwave also a coffee pot, dishwasher, 2 burner electric stove, reclining chair, side table, pots, pans, and utensils. They also have a free laundry room, but you have to purchase your own detergent. They don't have breakfast, but you can make your own or go to a nearby restaurant.

I’ve stayed in quite a few candlewood hotels, and this one was by far the worst. The room was not clean, and was very beat up and rundown. There were hairs all over toilet and floor where someone clearly shaved the stay before. The queen size bed was hard as a rock and was like sleeping on the floor. The price per night did reflect in anyway. The lady at the desk in the evening was very nice and only positive I can say but I won’t be staying here again.

I absolutely loved this hotel, the staff is excellent, extremely friendly and professional they simply out do an excellent job in all areas most places fail at. I had the joy of staying here nearly 2 months and I'm glad I was so lucky to snag a great room at a fantastic time. Cleanliness and service 5 stars with 24 hour front desk and an excellent location depending on your agenda. As an employee of McCrory construction I will definitely request to book this place again if ever needed in the future. Thanks you all ☺️

I stayed here for 6 weeks, so that says a lot. The price was great and the staff is exceptional! The hotel is older and in need of a refresh but it is clean.
Thank you to everyone there.
