“OK depending on what you need!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2011

I have just spent 4 nights here. Let me say that I travel for business combined with pleasure, I stay in hotels almost every week for 2-4 nights across the S.E. so I have experienced the good, the bad & the ugly & I am picky within reason (hate dirt, mold & or stench). The room was clean (more in a second) with microwave, coffeepot, full size refrigerator, stove and basic utensils and pans so you can cook your meals if you so desire. Outdoor pool to cool to use while I was there. Because it has a mini kitchenette they do not serve breakfast, just coffee (so they say but I couldn't locate it). Unlike my stay last week in Candlewood Tallahassee, Fl this hotel was clean but showing it's age, floors could use better cleaning, beds OK not the best staff was just there. No sign of bugs and believe me I look!
I stayed here 2 or 3 times in the past but it has been almost 3yrs and I am disappointed with it's condition.

Remember this is a suite hotel and like all of the suite hotels they give you more amenities in the room but room service is only once per week, so if you need a change of sheets or clean towels you go to the front desk and do it yourself.

Overall my stay was pleasant and comfortable and the location is convenient (and safe) to most of Birmingham with plenty of stores and food joints in the area (Try Full Moon for BBQ), it is a good value for your buck if you want (or need a kitchenette)

Room Tip: If you like to sleep in (past 8:15-8:30AM) Do not stay in rooms 113 or 115 right across from houseke...

“Roaches, Termites, Horrible Smell. Never Again!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2011 via mobile

Me and My sister chose to spend tonight at this hotel and within being in the bed 15 minutes 3 roaches was crawling all out of the bed and pillows and One termite inside of the bed. I get off the bed and there's roaching crawling on my shirt hood. I had to literally strip down check all my clothes and shake roaches and termites out as well as empty out all my bags to check for bugs before changing rooms. I've never had such a horrible experience at a hotel I could have should have and will go to Mariott my next visit here.

“START CLEANING AFTER ANIMALS!!!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Not the best I've ever been to though I can bring my dog here would bring me back if the whole grassy area wasn't filled with droppings. My dog and I had to walk somewhere else because it was so full, I know that they have things to pick them up but doesn't anybody know that? I wouldn't come back here because of all the droppings. Don't they clean up after the animals, or atleast if you don't do it they will?

“Relaxing, quiet, conviently located”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2011

A great place to stay for a short or extended trip. Pet friendly...lots of grassy area to walk your dog. Super clean, nice and quiet. Very friendly staff. Lots of restaurants nearby. My only complaint has nothing to do with the hotel itself, but other guests with dogs who did not clean up after their pets. The hotel even provided a trash receptacle with bags for picking up after you dogs and there were droppings everywhere, including right next to the trash receptacle. It is getting harder and harder to find a decent hotel that will allow pets without charging an arm and a leg, and this is the reason why. As a dog owner who travels frequently with my pets, I feel it is important to be a good representative for all dog owners and show responsible behavior in managing and cleaning up after my animals and I expect the same from other dog owners.

“Great home away from home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 April 2011

My daughter had cosmetic surgery nearby and due to our distance from the clinic and the bad weather we were able to stay here at the Candlewood Suites. It made for a calmer day of surgery and recuperation before traveling home. Manager was very understanding and accommodating to our needs. Location was close to our medical personnel as well as to retail and eating establishments, but off of the main highway so the traffic and noise was not bothersome.

I definately would come back here for a weekend away from it all!
