Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

horrible. not only did we get scammed when we first got here, but staff was terribly rude including the manager. not accommodating to customers whatsoever. we had black hair all over bathroom floor when we first arrived and 2 shower towels the size of a bath mat. room was extremely dirty and bed was made with the sheets inside out. DO NOT STAY HERE.

This fine establishment gets a 0 out of 10 for me. Only positive is the location that’s about it. Honesty doesn't get you very far at this hotel. I informed the front desk regarding bugs in my room upon checking out immediately after finding them crawling on the counters and walls in the kitchen area. Front desk affirmed she’d leave a note for management and apologized. Called in later that day and asked if there were any compensation options since I didn’t get a full nights rest here after finding what look like roaches. The manager told me they never heard anything regarding my complaint. Lmao that made my day honestly. I didn’t want to do this for your business but since you used zero effort to make anything right, these pictures are my heartfelt gift from me to you.

When we first arrived, our room was missing several items (hair dryer, sheet on bed, some silverware, sugar for coffee, regular coffee), in addition the tub didn't empty. However, the desk clerk bent over backwards to fix everything and we were happy. The bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean. Great room size, overstuffed easy chair, and full sized fridge. We left for 2 days and came back to another room. The room was good, but the customer service was awful. I put my laundry in the washer, and saw a sign that we couldn't leave it for more than 30 minutes. We were hungry, so I asked the desk clerk if we could leave it a bit longer. He got very rude, told us he would throw our laundry away, and we ended up putting our wet laundry in the room. (there were 5 washers and six dryers, and none were being used). I called SONESTA, the woman I talked to was very apologetic and called the property while I was on the phone. She came back very upset because he was terribly rude to her also. Told me to stay away from him. Later I had to go get towels because we used ours for the pool. When I asked him for towels he had me bring him my wet towels, but had only pool towels to replace them. He got rude again. I asked for his name, he said Charles. He asked if I wanted his last name and I said no, I figured they would know him. He said he makes an impact on people. This motel is completely self serve. If you need towels you must take them to the desk, and meet them around the corner to get new ones. We asked where to put our trash, and were told where the dumpster was, but it was locked. Other people put their trash out in the hall, and it stayed for 2 days. The "breakfast room" was locked and had no breakfast, just a few snacks and toiletries for sale. There was a free coffee machine, but only powdered creamer and you need a clerk to let you in. This room doubled as the laundry. Every time you wanted to check on your laundry, you had to get a clerk to let you in. Often there were people sitting around in the office. When we checked out early Monday morning, the clerk was very disheveled, but was efficient. After my altercation with the clerk, everyone was very cold and unhelpful. Even the gentleman who was originally so nice, didn't even get up when I went to the desk. Because the bed was comfortable and clean and the size of the room was awesome with a full size fridge and microwave, I can't give this motel, 1 star. However, they definitely need to work on customer service. Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

The room/suite was great in that it had a little kitchenette with all of the basic items you need to cook and eat a meal. There was a large desk/built -in table; and an overstuffed recliner in the room and the queen bed was comfortable. The staff was universally cheerful and helpful with any issues that came up. The only issue was seriously inadequate cleaning. Cleaning is only done once a week and after check-out for the next guest. My the bathroom and the floors in my suite clearly had not been cleaned. I was shown 3 other rooms and they were all in the same condition. Since it was a late-night check -in I opted for the first room spoke with the manager the next day to have cleaning performed. Additionally, the lobby and halls are all quite dirty. Obviously there are issues with the cleaning staff, but generally it has good value pricing and can work if you are a diligent guest

I had a good sleep in this property. Day Staff was great! I like all the amenities that Candelwood offers. Spacious rooms and very quiet hallways. The only issue we had is the room smell, we believe the smell comes from the fridge.

I booked this hotel because it was among the most affordable in the Phoenix area. My first thought was "What's wrong with it? It has to be in a bad part of a town or just really crumby." Turns out there's nothing wrong with the place at all! I really enjoyed my stay here. Loved that the rooms were suites. It was a spacious room with full size fridge, microwave, silverware, plates, etc. Had no problems with the TV; cable worked great. Shower worked well; great hot water. Everything about the place was convenient...lots of parking, access to snacks at the "Candlewood Cupboard," "business center" in the lobby which was helpful in printing out my boarding pass for my flight the next day. The location was great. Felt like a safe area and very convenient to airport and attractions. Check in and check out were fast and staff was friendly. It's not a newer property; I'm sure there are places that could use an update. But overall, I would stay here again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

While not fancy they do cover all the bases. Clean, quiet, very friendly staff. Free laundry which was very convent for us as we had been traveling in an rv for some time. Great room, very clean and spacious. Plenty of storage space. Plea to of parking even if you have an rv that takes up four regular spaces. A real value!

Setup like a studio apartment, with a large desk and small kitchen. Room 223 has a noisy refrigerator which we survived one night. There is no breakfast, but they have a little shop to buy food and free washer and dryer. The Waffle House is just west a few blocks and a Fry's groceries about a mile west. Easy access to freeway - 8 miles to airport - note: Exit 150b (rental car return) is before 150a - you have to get in the right most lane of the 3 lanes for exit 150a and then exit off of that lane.

I stayed here in August for a little over two weeks. Checkin was a breeze.There were a number of things that made the long stay comfortable. The room was nice and clean. The kitchen was well equipped with pots, a pan, plates, glasses, cups, silverware etc. The room had a full size fridge. The bathroom was nice with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and plenty of towels. Free access to washer/dryer was nice. The laundry center had free tea/coffee and had a lot of things like snacks and daily use items (toothpaste, detergent, etc.) for purchase. Housekeeping is one day a week which is fine for a long stay hotel. You can always get used sheets and towels exchanged for fresh ones at the front desk. The staff at front desk is great. I interacted with Enrique and Kyle and found both of them to be very friendly and helpful Overall very good value for money. Highly recommended.
