We’ve stayed at Candlewood Suites before and have always had super clean and updated rooms. This one, however, was not up to par. A missing sink in the men’s public bathroom in the lobby, food left in our room’s refrigerator as well as our refrigerator having issues (ice maker broken, wheel caster missing, door misaligned) were some of the issues. A bit disappointed in this facility.
