Location: within 2 miles from large mall, nice restaurants and Walmart. Front desk staff: not overly friendly (not a lot of informal chitchat), but all business and efficient. Front desk is staffed only from 7 AM to 11 PM. Front doors locked after at 11 PM, need keycard to enter after 11 PM. We had a studio suite with one... more

We had planned to stay at this hotel for one night on our way to Minneapolis. According to AAA, pets are accepted. We have two bijons, and when we arrived, we learned they accept only one dog. That would be fine, but the lady at the check-in desk was extremely rude, said she does not like animals, and in her... more

Stayed for one night--although it is built for long-term stays. Great room with comfortable bed/pillows. Room came with DVD player and movies to check-out at the front desk. In addition, they greated you with microwave popcorn and a soda. Can't beat this place! more

We liked the mall with a cute lake to walk around and many restaurants to choose from. This was close to I-80 and was convenient... more

The new beds are so comfortable, and everything is very clean. This hotel and its staff are a shining example of customer service... more

I asked for a quiet room and got one on the 3rd floor at end of hall. What was not obvious until I tried to sleep was that the room faced I-80 which is about 150 yards away. Adding to the problem was that Iowa cuts grooves in the road surfaces and there was an up-hill grade, so all night... more

I stayed at the Candlewood for about 3 months during the summer of 2003. The rooms were fine, the facilities were great with a mini-grocery and free laundry services. The staff was fantastic. They were very friendly and helpful. In addition, as a middle-age woman, I always felt safe and secure at the Candlewood. more
