Everything was great and clean! Only thing that I don’t like is the they charge me $50 dollars more for something i don’t even know cause the lady didn’t explain. I pay the room 2 days before the day of the reservation and, that day they’d charge more money.

Overnight Asheville trip

I was visiting Asheville for the Snot Otters game last Friday and wanted somewheres close to downtown, without breaking the bank. Candlewood Suites accomplished that goal perfectly! My bed was comfy and my suite was cozy, but big. I loved the rooftop bar – though it was closed when I went up, I was able to bring my own beverage and FaceTime my family. The pool, hot tub and coffee were the perfect cap next morning. I love how the TV had an HDMI hookup for my game console! I stayed here once before when the hotel first opened in 2021, this time was even better. Ingles next door is clutch. If I ever come on a solo trip to Asheville, I’ll definitely give your hotel a look!

Diana

Disliked: Staff & service
We booked a reservation for a specific room. Upon arrival, staff informed us they did not have that room and would be placing us in a different room. In our opinion, a downgrade. Check in took approximately 15-20 minutes; we were not waiting in line, the more experienced staff just seemed not to care to help the newer staff. With the downgrade, hotel staff did not offer compensation despite us asking. My spouse asked for a later check out, which they extended by one hour. The room itself was fine. No complaints. Truthfully though you could go to a comfort inn or any other hotel for a lot less headache, better customer service, and get the same room. My husband and I don’t get an opportunity to get away alone very often. This was the first weekend we’ve taken in about two years. We just were really disappointed. We definitely would not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an experience, however, if you’re looking for somewhere to lay your head down at night, this would satisfy.
