Nice place.

Nice room, very comfortable. My only dissatisfaction with this chain is that they don't offer a breakfast. That's the main reason I rarely stay at Candlewood. If the hotel next to them (where I regularly stay) had not been full I would have stayed there. It's a nice property, though.

Best Stay By Far!

We were here for 3 days for church and will say that this was the cleanist hotel we have stayed at in the last 10 years coming to Alexandria! I usually bring cleaning products with us to clean our room once we check in and to my surprise when i cleaned the floors they were actually CLEAN! The staff was very friendly and professional as well!

Weekend Visit

Check in went well. No morning room cleaning or towel exchange, had to call for at least towel exchange when we got back. Lots of construction, which was not disclosed when booking. Would not have booked due to strong smells and dust.
