Calvin's stay

After staying at a number of Candlewoods i find eachone continues to go down hill. The hotels appears situp for a homeless shelter instead of a hotel. I was expecting more from stay there. I graded each Candlewood to the one i stayed in in Birmingham, Alabama, which is one of the best i have stayed in. I expecting every Candlewood to be the same.

The staff was awesome. However, the room wasn't ready, they were short staffed and there was underwear left from the last occupant. I believe I am owed some type of refund. A partial refund because the staff was gracious and tried their best. Angie was awesome

Everything was what I expected. While it didn’t bother me, it is fair to note that this location doesn’t have a pool. I thought it did, and then I checked in and realized it did not have one. This might make a difference for families. The building and rooms were clean. The kitchen was ready for use, grill area was great. The gym is small but pretty solid for a hotel. 10/10 highly recommend!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The check- in from the beginning was awful. Worst experience ever!. Front desk attendant bold face lied to me that I booked a king bed, when I clearly booked 2 double bed room. I chose this hotel because of the # of beds available and didn’t get it! I could have booked any other king size room anywhere else for much cheaper, since I booked way in advance. I showed the booking confirmation to prove it as well, clearly stating the 2 double bed room, but they had already sold my room to someone else, obviously. When I asked for a manager, I was told there wasn’t one. When I asked for a copy of the sheet that I signed at check in, I was told I cannot have it, it is company property, and against their policy. After Expedia called the hotel, front desk attendant proceeded to lie to the Expedia customer service and said that we had booked a king room, and never made accommodations any better, even after Expedia representative sent them confirmation again, with my 2 double beds booking. The attendant offered us another room for $279/ night. Coming to a hotel to check in and get this kind of awful service, while having to rush to a tournament, after the long drive from home, is unacceptable to say the least. We've traveled all over Indiana and this was the worst experience ever! We had nowhere else to go since the entire Fort Wayne was booked up. The 2 adults and 2 teenage boys had to make do with 1 bed. The manager never talked to us the next day or even attempted to speak to us.
