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.
