“AWESOME STAFF!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2011

My husband and I spend 99% of our time in hotels, travelling for the company we work with. Candlewood Suites is, by far, a great hotel chain. The one in Birmingham, Alabama goes above and beyond. The staff here is incredible. From the front desk to the housekeeping, they are the best we have encountered....and we have stayed all over the United States. The friendliness here is genuine, and it makes our 'home away from home', a very enjoyable, and comfortable visit.
If you are travelling to Birmingham, AL, you will do yourself a great injustice if you don't stay here. The pantry and free laundry are a bonus, but the staff is incredible. Thanks Candlewood Staff! You all are AWESOME!!!!

“Not a place to stay for pleasure trip, at any rate.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2011

We booked four nites, left after two and could not get a refund, since we got it through Hotwire. Couldn't sleep, the beds were uncomfortably hard, and the "recliner" was a joke, so hard to use it was unusable. We asked for non-smoking, they put us on a smoking floor and next morning we were hacking from smoke. They moved us down to a NS floor, 2nd floor, and that was equally uncomfortable and had not been cleaned well. We decided just to leave, was washing the dishes in the dishwasher and it leaked all over our stuff in the floor to take out. Yeah. We wanted to visit during Christmas, and the road it is on is just jammed 24/7. If you go, stay somewhere nice near what you want to see, travel is tough here. But the city itself had some nice things, just don't save the money here. I think they are trying to sound like "Candlewick Suites" which is a nice place. I got fooled. By the way, there is only an exercise room in the place, the pool and anything else if a bit off site at the YMCA, something that was not obvious when I read about the place.

the hotel was clean & comfortable. The FREE wifi high speed was very good, and having the kitchen in the room was great and convenient.
the fitness room was nice and the equipment was new.

“older property but ok”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2010

this is about 10 years old at least and is about 4 miles south on 280 which is off 465.
It is on top of a distinct hill, cant miss it and there is a Wingate next to it and a Joes crab shack next to it. But its quiet and among office park buildings. It is somewhat of an odd location but not bad. It is clean and a good deal for 55$ but will need a remodel in the next 5 years. Like many extended stay models that started in the SE USA, this shows some
dated parts like a faint smell and older counter tops, not like the newer Candlewoods but is still ok and much better than an Extended Stay America.A good deal for the money. There is a huge Whole Foods if you go North on 280 off the freeway a couple miles. And lots of eateries.

“Great Stay for Sure !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2010

I stayed here week of November 15 for a couple of days on business. The hotel was clean and the staff was very courteous. The suite I stayed in was very spacious, had two TV's (one in each room) and the Free Wi-Fi was quicker than most hotels I stay in. The bed was great and slept well. It's location is perfect as it's right near two of my largest accounts in the area. Thumbs up for sure.
