Unfortunately the first room we got was quite smelly, and we probably found the reason for that on the second day when we tried to use the dishwasher and noticed water leaking.

We were moved to another room which smelled much better.

Rooms in this hotel are equipped with a small kitchenette featuring a hot plate, fridge, microwave and dishwasher, so you can throw together a small dinner without having to go out.

We were very much impressed by the helpfulness of the staff when we realized that we left the car lights on over night and had drained the battery. They had a starter cable and a member of the staff jump started our car.

Even though the interior of the hotel is average, we'd still come back if the price is right. The location of this hotel is quite good as long as you have a car.

I stayed at this property for 2 weeks at the beginning of July. It was much cleaner than I had expected for the price (I paid $69 +tax per night). The staff at the front desk are friendly; but the security does seem a little lax because anyone could walk in and out without being questioned. However, the location of the hotel is fairly safe so no bother. It is situated close to the Galleria (5 mins by car), but walking there is not an option because 1) the weather is hot hot hot!, and 2) Houston streets are not pedestrian friendly, the notion of walking anywhere seems strange to Houstonians.
It is true the maid service only comes once a week, but every adult should be able to make their own bed for a week at least. There is a good stock of towels in the bathroom. The rooms are fairly spacious, and the kitchen area is a godsend even though the hotel only provides one saucepan (which is really a small stock pot).
All in all, it was well worth the price.

I always enjoy the friendly staff and clean rooms when I stay at this hotel. The location is convenient to many restaurants and shopping. Staff is also knowledgable with area attractions and offer good suggestions. Whether business or personal, I will return. The rooms are clean and the prices are reasonable for any budget.

This is my home away from home hotel. The Candlewood Suites Galleria has a great location close to restaurants, downtown, and the Galleria area. The staff will make you feel like you are part of the family. I often check-in early and my room is always ready. If going to Relaint Stadium this is the perfect place to stay.
