Just so-so, but your facilities are good for domestic users, not good for overseas visitors.
Pros:

Air conditioned well, facilities good.

Cons:

Smell is not good. For the first night, I could not sleep well.

Pros:

We enjoyed our stay at Candlewood Suites. Although not super fancy or luxurious, the suite is very functional and comfortable. The kitchenette is a huge plus offering one options other than eating out all the time. They have a lending locker where you can borrow things like full size coffee pots, slow cookers, etc. They have a patio out back with a gas grill that guests can use. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We would stay again.

Pros:

The location is convenient if you’re traveling because it is literally right off the highway, but it’s also tucked into a bit of an industrial park so that was a little surprising. Very close to downtown Lexington, which was great. The humidity was high, and unfortunately, it was high in the room as well, so everything felt damp, including the bedding, which was a little uncomfortable, but otherwise it was a fine place to stay for the night.

I was disappointed in the service, but at least it was clean.
Pros:

Facility was clean

Cons:

We waited over 30 minutes for staff to show up to the front desk to get us checked in. Another couple was there longer and ended up leaving, but my husband and I were both too tired to find somewhere else. Once the front desk staff did show up, he had been outside hanging out with friends and seemed to be under the influence.
There were only 2 hand towels and 1 smaller cloth in the bathroom, now bath towels at all.

Pros:

The hotel smelled so musky and old, the room looked ran down and nasty. Not what was shown online. If you decide you dont like it and realize it was false advertisement theyll take your money.
