“A Welcomed Surprise”

Reviewed 4 June 2013

This is our first time staying at a Candlewood Suites and I was quite impressed. The rooms were very nice with a full refrigerator and kitchen setup. Also a wrap around desk with two chairs. The location is okay, but there are not many food options within walking distance of the hotel. The staff was cordial, but I wouldn't classify... More

“College Visit”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

Overall, I got a good deal for the money. The place is upgraded but it needs a good cleaning. The door wouldn't close without slamming and it looked like dry blood or maybe finger nail polish on the curtain. The bed was hard.

“Nice Surprise inside!”

The room was very nice and modern. I was surprised to see a small stove, a refrigerator, dishes, pans, etc. The bed was very comfortable. I hardly heard any noise in the hallway. The only reason I gave a 4 rating for service is because I had to wait over five minutes for someone to show up at the front... More

Recently updated with new carpeting, bathrooms, and furniture but some areas still need attention like the laundry room/gym which are dated. The paint in the suite was dirty and the bathroom fan was extremely loud/non functioning. Beds were very comfortable and the room was reasonably clean.

I recently stayed at the Candlewood Suites University while in Charlotte on business.
