Worst Candlewood Suites to Stay
Pros:

It stunk in the hallways and lots of foreign contractors. They were dirty and most of them did not speak English. The laundry facilities are a joke. The contractors use them and walk off. Don’t care if you have to wait. The rooms were set for several people to stay. Very uncomfortable mattress. No broom or anything to keep your kitchen tidy. It was one of the worst experiences of a Candlewood Suites I have ever stayed in. The area around it is nice. That’s why I was confused it was in the shape it was in. My recommendation is don’t stay here if you like clean and comfortable. Those ratings is a joke.

Pros:

I feel I got rib off. I booked with Candlewood Suits but they put me at a cheap hotel across from it. I am very allergic to dust and others so this is simply horrible. I want my money back!

Pros:

Strange property. Staff was fine and the place was clean. However, prospective guests should understand that it caters to a clientele that differs from the average motel/hotel occupant. On our floor we smelled cigarette smoke, despite signs saying the building is a nonsmoking facility. Since there are cooking facilities in the rooms, cooking odors were also fairly strong in the hallway. There was a group on men having a sort of tailgate party in the back of a pickup truck in the parking lot. Latin music could be heard from time to time, including for a short time around 3 a.m. We wouldn’t have let the high ranking we saw on Expedia influence us to choose this Candlewood facility if we had understood that it has more of a residential character, rather than being a regular hotel/motel.

Pros:

Attended Washington Commanders Training Camp and this hotel was close by and inexpensive. The hotel had a kitchen, complete with cooktop, microwave, full fridge, dishwasher, comfortable queen bed and large bathroom. This hotel doesn't have a pool but does have fitness room and small store to purchase items to be cooked or snacks.
