Verified Reviews of Candlewood Suites Wake Forest Raleigh Area An Ihg Hotel
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Comfortable but functIonally Obsolete."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
The most important thing is the bed and covering and that was excellent. I would have appreciated a bedside table but was told there weren't any extra. But the hotels appearance is just tired and the rooms are boring. Drapes carelessly hung but do block the exterior light. But the lighting in the room was terrible. Housekeeping is sporadic but the staff was very nice. The heating/AC was good. There were only two plates, cups, glasses and cutlery so the dishwasher was a joke for a weeks stay but nice selection of cookware. Some of the office staff needs better training. The girl in the office told me to take my wastebasket to the dumpster at the end of the hall and save the plastic liner. Laundry and gym were nice and clean. Not the Ritz but sufficient.

"I wanted to change my reservation and was told that was not possible."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
On the 15th I made a reservation for 17th to the 18th. I needed to change that to 19 to 20 and was rudely told by one of your employees that I could not do that because I didn't cancel before the 15th. I didn't make it until the 15th, therefore, how could I have cancelled it? Then she told me that I had to pay for the room even though I did not use the room. So I went to Hampton Inn instead where I was treated like a human being. I will never even attempt to stay at Candlewood in the future. It is not right to charge someone for a room that they did not use.

"Worst experience ever."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
Made reservations two weeks prior to my stay, when I went to check in they said they were over booked. Asked them what can they do for me didn't even care if I slept out in the streets. Never experienced this in my life and very unprofessional for them.
