Air conditioning didn't reach the bedroom as well as the living area. This was an issue when using the pull out sofa as a bed, made it very cold to them and not to those in the bedroom. Sofa bed was also pretty uncomfortable.

Very Good Accommodations

Our room had everything we needed and it was very clean, organized and had everything we needed. We appreciated having a refrigerator which we used for leftovers and made ice so we could keep them cold on out way home. It was nice to have coffee available. Our only complaint was the soft mattress but it’s impossible to have mattresses that everyone prefers. I’ll

We had a great stay at Candlewood. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We asked for rollaway and extra towels, and they provided quickly and happily. The coffee machine at the lobby is awesome, brewing freshly grinded coffee that tasted great. The only drawback is that there is no dining place within walking distance. But it’s short drive to MSU and nearby restaurants. There is also a full size refrigerator, electric stove and dining wares and even dish detergents in the room. A laundry room too. The room rate is very reasonable. So a great place for a longer stay too. Very happy with the hotel and will come back in the future.
