Pros: We stayed here for a short trip to DC. It was close to shopping center and restaurant. The room was spacious for my husband and I. We also arrived pretty late but the evening receptionist was very nice. I would stay at Candlewood Suites again.
Cons: The shower had weak water pressure.

Nice place, be careful if...
Pros: Nice, clean room. Staff was friendly and helpful. Great place for most people.
Cons: I have sensitive skin and whatever they use to wash the lines caused a nasty reaction. This doesn't happen often with hotels. Walgreens was able to recommend something that helped a great deal. But if you have sensitive skin, you might want to reconsider.

Pros: The facility was incredibly quiet. Awesome! It was so nice to not hear doors slamming shut all night.
Cons: I wish someone had been on-site 24/7. When my friend and I got back from our event late at night, we needed some assistance, but the front desk was closed. A little disappointing.

Pros: I stayed here last year. Really enjoyed it so I book(ing.com)ed again.
Cons: Last year was at the other end of the hotel on the first floor. This year was not as convenient. With the shape of the hotel, it wouldn't hurt to have elevators at each end. It's a long walk with groceries when staying 4 or more days.

Excellent stay, but charges applied...
Pros: I liked the free laundry services. The Wifi never failed. I received a package and it was easily retrieved. The staff was always friendly. Coffee was always available and fresh. Cleaning crew was very friendly and accommodating. It was a most wonderful experience.
Cons: Billing midway through my stay had me at odds with my company. I am to report all "spending" to the office before 9:00 am every Monday morning. Candlewood Suites charged my credit card without my knowledge and I missed my reporting time. I received a somewhat nasty email from my company about not reporting the "charge" in a timely manner. I was VERY dissatisfied with this aspect of my stay. This is something that should be explained upon check-in, that charges will be made on your credit card BEFORE your stay is finished. My stay was for 2 weeks (11 days).

Great location
Pros: Location was excellent, short distance to I-66 and Fair Oaks Mall. Kitchenette was very handy. Major snow was approaching, so we fixed dinner in. The front desk staff was extremely friendly. They provided free ice scrapers since it snowed overnight.
Cons: We were in a queen studio--it was extremely small. The shower head was dirty and new caulk is needed around the bathtub faucet. One minor thing--complimentary USA Today was available only to IHG members. Come on!

Best Place Ever!
Pros: Excellent facility in terms of staff who are pleasant, helpful, efficient and provide a relaxed vibe. Hotel is very clean and quiet, rooms are very clean, excellent layout, really nice decor/color, very plush cosy bedding, fully furnished kitchen (including dish washer) and separate dining table, plus there is a locker room in lobby with additional items you can borrow from kitchen appliances, games, books, videos to play in DVD player in all rooms (bonus popcorn included in room), etc. Laundry facilities are free and located adjacent to large workout centre with great equipment. Free coffee provided in main lobby, mints at front desk, plus all kinds of breakfast/snack goods you can purchase on honour system. This is second Candlewood Suites stayed in and equally as good. Will only stay in these where possible from now on. As quoted by another guest at stay, they feel like home.
Cons: Absolutely nothing.......have stayed in lots of hotels on this lengthy trip and these are by far the best.
