“home away from home!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 4, 2012

This was the 3rd time I have stayed at the Candlewood Suites, each time I am more impressed with it. We stayed in a standard room which looked like a studio apt. we had a stove, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher we had everything we needed and more. There is a pet fee of $75.00 but was worth it to us to have our babies with us. There is a pet walking area on the north end of the hotel. Staff was pleasant. If I have to complain about something the only thing I can even come up with is that the door scrapped on the door jam when opening and made a squeal. Would definitely recommend this hotel to my clients. A good solid 3 star hotel.

“Operation Pending”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 26, 2012

I travel on average 45 weeks a year. This wasn’t a business trip or one for leisure. I was having cancer surgery in Columbia, MO and wanted a hotel chain I had stayed in before that I could use my reward points for the one night stay. The Candlewood Suites was located across the street from the hospital and allowed smoking in the room. I have stayed in Candlewood Suites before and knew about them, but this one was different. The Manager, James Weirich, was very professional and friendly when we checked in. After he found out the reason for my stay, he went out of his way to make sure I had everything I needed the hotel could provide and was comfortable in the suite. I wanted to take this opportunity to Thank him again and to let him know he made a bad situation a little bit more bearable. Thanks and I recommend this hotel to anyone in my situation or for business or leisure.

Room Tip: Rootel on the backside of the hotel are quieter

“Very nice for an extended stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 23, 2012

I stayed at Candlewood this weekend and I was very pleased with the room. Loved the full size refrigerator with ice maker included. We had one queen size bed in our room and the bathroom was good size too. The room seemed large and two nice chairs for the table used as a eating or work table. The microwave was up to date and worked well.

*** I have a couple of suggestions for management - please include a second nightstand or small table on the other side of the bed. Spouses have needs too. I have a CPAP machine and I needed another small table to use on my side of the bed. My husband & I both have CPAP's and it was difficult to have my machine on his side of the bed. This should be done in all rooms because you never know what medical needs a couple might have for their room. Also, please provide more than (3) pillows per bed. At least provide (4) pillows for each bed. Many couples are used to at least (2) pillows for each person.

*** In the kitchen area - it would be nice to have a pantry cabinet for food like you have in the suites with the large work tables. Some people can't afford the suites prices (or their company won't pay for it) but they are staying at Candlewood for work reasons for several weeks. Not everyone can reach the cabinets above the microwave or above the refrigerator to store their food. A nice cabinet about 14" wide with two doors like in the "suites" on the end next to the stove would be nice and appreciated by your customers.

Bed - it was very comfortable to sleep on, but it was set up a little too high off the floor.

LOVED the free laundry facility and the pantry was well stocked! I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

“Great place to stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 2, 2012 via mobile

After driving all night from PA after having attended a funeral, we needed somewhere nice to sleep at 8 am. Nadia quickly checked us in to a very nice room at a great rate. Very clean, large room with everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again!

“Would stay here again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 21, 2012

We had to make a trip to Columbia to pick up a piece of equipment for my husband's business. It was a fast trip, just needed a place to spend the night, so was primarily looking for value, no frills however I never want to stay in a dump. This motel is very conveniently located. Lots of other motels around, right across the street from a Hospital. Lots of places to eat and if you needed to stay here for an extended time and really use the kitchen there is a Hy Vee grocery store within a mile or two of the motel. Check in was a breeze and staff was very friendly. We found our room very clean (also very cold as mentioned by some other reviewers). Could use some updating but wasn't bad. The bed and other furniture was very comfortable and bathroom was a nice size. When we checked in we were given "coupons" for 2 free drinks from "The Cupboard" which was very well stocked. We also found complimentary popcorn in the microwave in our room. There was an in room coffee maker and if you needed more coffee at any time all you had to do was go the "The Cupboard" and get more for free. They do not have a free breakfast here as it is an extended stay hotel so keep that in mind. I want to mention something that was also mentioned by other reviewers that you can keep the fan on all night on the air conditioner/heater. That is very helpful if you need some type of "white noise" when you sleep. If I had to mention a negative there were some a few kids running loudly in the hall about 10:00 but that didn't last long. You could kinda here people walking around upstairs but not too bad. When I was sitting at the table next to the wall I could here the tv on in the room next door. But those were very minor issues. All in all I would stay here again if I was ever in Columbia Missouri.
