Great! Ok, let me give you a little advice. Forcing people to provide a written response vs a check box is a horrible idea and it ruins the ultimate validity of your survey. Please feel free to reach out to me or my company and we can absolutely help Candlewood suites design your surveys so the data is actionable and can be used for continuous improvement. Right now, you are not getting the information you need and it is also highly likely that it’s invalid.

Location was very good. However, there was no breakfast provided by hotel. Of course I should have realized by type of hotel that breakfast may not be included. We would have liked to have had breakfast but then again we would have missed breakfast at Mobjacks which was such a great experience that we stopped back there for lunch.

I loved the fact that everything was there in the room and it felt like taking the kids to a home away from home I did not like the fact that our mattress pad and mattress itself was nasty , and it was late when we realized it and had to move rooms at 12 1 o clock in morning with 3 kids by myself and I was already exhausted and ready to go to sleep. In the future they should pay attention to the reservation to make sure everyone is accommodated properly. I booked for 3 kids one adult so we was going to use the pullout couch. Also when we arrived our room smelled like nail polish remover if the previous guest did that, why not put us in a room cleaner ? We moved across the hall so it was a better room for us.

Location Had three rooms with two under my name and one under my sons name; and all between rooms and floors had heavy smoke smell on one floor and in bathroom of another room on separate floor. Majority of building cameras for security had covers removed or hanging off. One room had smoke detector covered with plastic. Third room had heavy chemical smell. Advised by staff, no other rooms were available.

Not a bad room but the following needs your attention: room was not cleaned very well. Toilet paper dispenser loose and paper falling off. Shower drain is very very slow draining.

Roaches roaches roaches in two different rooms assigned on the third floor 312 and first floor 102. And not just one roach but several with one having babies on its back! Disgusted me so much I just left and stayed at the Hampton Inn which was much cleaner. Not booking anymore hotels that have kitchenette’s because they do not clean them enough to eliminate roaches. Waiting on a refund requested but they will more than likely keep my money!!! Shameful!!!

My room (115) was right near the front lobby and the elevator. I could everyone coming through late night, which caused me to wake up several times throughout each night. I recommend that before assigning this room, please ask if the guest is okay to be near the lobby and elevator as there is more foot traffic than other rooms. Otherwise, I enjoyed my stay. Thank you!

The kitchen area was disgusting. The dishes and utensils were filthy and had dried food and drink stains on them. The floor was so disgustingly filthy that we had to keep our shoes on and they were sticking to the floor. I used a wet paper towel to wipe a small area of the floor and the paper towel was almost black. DISGUSTING!!! The room smelled of urine. DISGUSTING!!! The bathroom was was filthy as well. There was hair everywhere. The floor was the same as the entry and kitchen floor. DISGUSTING!!! The vanity cabinet fronts and drawers were so sticking and gross.

The room smelled dank, like mold/mildew. Our noses adjusted and we would forget, until we went out and came back. It got worse every time, but we kept getting use to it. Probably should have switched rooms. The room itself, including linens, towels, kitchen, fridge, and bathroom, was pretty clean. There was somebody's smashed black sock or underwear we discovered under the corner chair when we were packing to leave. We left it there. The shower pressure was poor. Usable and disappointing. Pillow were made of a new kind of memory foam, the kind that are very puffy at first, but so flat when you lay your head down, all you have left are memories of what it's like to have had a pillow. The bed itself was super comfy, like sleeping on a dream. The hallway reeked of pot on day 1, but gone by day 2. We checked out earlier than originally planned. Checkout at 2 a.m. was A+ and that person was kind and sweet.

The floors in our room were very sticky, like they haven't been mopped from the last stay.I had to drive an hour away to take my kid to VA Beach because your pool was closed the entire time of our stay. Which was NOT made ware of during time of booking. Which cost us more gas. The shower had blonde hair everywhere, the table looked like it was lifting up,

There were awful smells. First in the lobby and the room smells were way too strong cleaning solutions. We asked to move to another room. The next room had a slight bad smell but was better then the strong cleaning solutions smell. Made the stay pretty bad. Will never stay there again. Staff was not friendly. Seemed to be bothered by us.

The side door of the building was always open which again was a security risk to guests staying there. It wasn’t secure at all which we did not like as we were traveling with 2 small children. The only positive of this hotel was that it was in close proximity to stores, food and the interstate.

While the staff were apologetic, they didn’t seemed overly concerned.

I was charged twice for the same stay I booked through Expedia and someone from the hotel called me the next day to check me in and I was assured that when I checked out I would be refunded the extra charge but I have not been refunded I paid 436 for my stay and I got charged an additional 429 for the same stay and all of my banking records indicate that I was charge twice for the same stay and I was assured by the general manager that I would be refunded when I checked out so I will give it a few more days and see if what I was told is the case but so far I’ve been charge double for the same stay. I still have my banking records that indicate that I have indeed been charge twice for the same stay at candlewood suites Yorktown if you need to see proof I will gladly provide it for you. An employee of the hotel asked me if my situation was resolved and I told her it was and then the next day I was charged the additional 429.04 that was supposed to be refunded to me because I had already paid 436 through Expedia for the same stay

Awesome checkin staff—only pet available room was #111 which is across the hall from Reception. He warned me it can be noisy but it’s also right near the front door for dog potty breaks. I could hear the Lobby TV but was so tired it didn’t matter. Nice spacious room and super comfy bed. Clean bathroom with great shower water pressure. Loved having a full size fridge with big freezer. Good, safe location too.

When we checked into our room it had a horrible smell. We looked in the a/c unit and it was covered in black and white mold. We went to the front desk and we were given a new room. The second room just got done being cleaned so it smelled fresh. As the day went on we could smell a funky smell. The following day the smell was so strong, It smelled like wet dog. We even went and bought room freshener. Upon spraying the floor we noticed it was covered in dog hair. It was so gross. Not to mention an altercation in the lobby at late hours of the night. Needless to say we checked out early.

It was an okay stay, but When we first arrived, the customer service rep seemed liked she was not happy with her job. She greeted us, but her energy was off. Then when we went to the room, it smelled old and minty like. The smell was something I have never experienced staying in many hotels. They switched my room, but this room smelled much of the same. I just wound up going to Walmart and purchasing cleaning supplies (Bleach, Lysol and Febreeze). We even had to wipe down the walls because they had spots on them and pink stuff under the pull out bed and satins on the carpet under the coffee table in the living room. The dishes in the dishwasher had to be washed so that we could use them, but according to the Customer Rep, the dishes didn’t need to be cleaned or put away…smh. We actually left a day earlier than we were supposed to. I would never stay here again

Then when we went to the room, it smelled old and minty like. The smell was something I have never experienced staying in many hotels. They switched my room, but this room smelled much of the same. I just wound up going to Walmart and purchasing cleaning supplies (Bleach, Lysol and Febreeze). We even had to wipe down the walls because they had spots on them and pink stuff under the pull out bed and satins on the carpet under the coffee table in the living room. The dishes in the dishwasher had to be washed so that we could use them, but according to the Customer Rep, the dishes didn’t need to be cleaned or put away…smh. We actually left a day earlier than we were supposed to. I would never stay here again

This place was ok, not great but not terrible. Staff was not super welcoming and the amenities were not very well updated. Rooms were clean and beds were fine.

First, check in was a nightmare. Partially bc only 1 person was at the desk and she was on the phone the entire time. Had myself and 3 other parties waiting for over 25 min. 1 guy just wanted his room key reactivated. I let him go ahead of me. Bachelorette party going on across the hall. Very loud and obsene. Spilled out into the hall at 2am. I called downstairs but no answer. I called several times over the next hour. Still no answer. I checked peephope and im almost certain 1 partier was the same girl from front desk. The room was sprayed with some kind of cleaning product but not wiped. You could see the greasy mist on the counters, table and even the floor. Wore sandals around my room. Bed was nice. Thats literally it.

Nice and quiet location, the pool is kind of covered by trees but other than that a nice pool. Staff was friendly but had to wait a hour for my room to be cleaned. Great experience.

Says there is limited housekeeping if you stay less than 7 days. But it is non-existant. You have to go to the desk to get towels, toilet paper, trash bags or anything. You had to almost beg for supplies, vacuum your own room, change and dispose of trash and deal with the nasty and unprofessional staff. They were constantly blocking the common areas to the point of guests not being able to pass and having to move things in order to. We stayed 6 nights and there was a stack of supplies hindering the 1st floor hallway and it was still there at check-out. Room had been updated and had nice fixtures. But for the price i will stay elsewhere for better service from now on.

Nice low key hotel. Decent size room w/ full kitchenette. Huge bathroom counter for all your personal stuff. Pet friendly with a part laminate floor. Always free coffee in lobby. Convenient to everything in Newport News.

We were a little disappointed In our stay. Our room smelled like cigarettes even though it was supposed to be a non smoking room. Also, the air conditioner did not put out much cool air during the stay and it was 84 degrees outside. Finally, the hallway and elevator were hot, stuffy and had a lingering smell of marijuana.

We had ants in our room. Something sticky was left on the floor in addition to what looked like dog food. We killed about 12 ants total. They just kept coming out!!! My husband went to the front desk, they gave us bug spray and told us someone would come at 11am to clean...noone showed up. I guess we were supposed to put a sign on the door for cleaning but we weren't told that. We assumed because of the nature of the situation someone would just come. That didn't happen...Several updates are also needed. Light fixtures are rusted, water stains in the bathroom, chairs are worn. All the hotels in the area were booked otherwise we would've canceled our reservation and switched hotels. Oh by the way, no discounts or anything were offered for our inconvenience. I expected more for the price. The front desk staff was nice and apologetic but not accommodating. Very bad experience! I will never stay at a Candlewood Suites again!

COVID is making hotel stays a little different. The hotel staff was isolated somewhere other than the desk (pick up house phone for them). The room was clean and comfortable, but cleaning is only once a week. Needed some repairs (doors stops falling off & bent, shower was dripping, & microwave was noisy). Taking the COVID thing into consideration, it was not a bad experience.

The rooms in general were nice. It was suite style so the room offered a stove , microwave , full size refrigerator and freezer with a spacious bathroom and desk area. However , when I first arrived the front desk associate was in the back and took a while to greet me and there was a left over opened beer bottle in the refrigerator. I called the front desk to let the woman know and she seemed unapologetic and unbothered which naturally bothered me as cleanliness is extremely important during a pandemic. However the housekeeping staff did stop by the next morning to clean the fridge out so that helped

Staff was accommodating and friendly, but the rooms smelled musty and like cigarettes. There was dirt and hair along the sideboards of the floor, and stains on the bedsheets.

We stayed at this hotel while in between houses. The room was clean but a few things from other guests were left behind. The front desk staff was helpful. Safe location.

When we arrived our room had been given to somebody else but they corrected it the next day. None of the outside card readers work so you can only come in the front and after 11pm you have to knock on the door because they have no phone installed.

We were booked into a nice room #100, but the smell of cigarette smoke was so strong we got a headache and my husband was sick all day. They were nice enough to change our room (we waited in the lobby half the morning until the room was ready) we were given room 117 which was nice also until we went to the bathroom. The nicotine smell was strong, we bought a candle to be able endure the rest of our stay.

We checked in on Thursday and checked out on Sunday. No house keeping on weekdays/weekends. Freezer start leaking when turned on Ice maker. Called the front desk multiple times, they fixed it and didn't clean the leaked water. Called multiple times but of no use.

Very nice and clean. Staff was friendly. Suite had everything you needed for an extended stay. And there was more to "borrow" from in the lobby if you needed more. We say blenders and slow cookers to name a few. They even had games you could borrow!

The room as depicted online was not available. I selected that particular room for a reason and some other room was booked instead. This was totally unsatisfactory and not the reason I used this 3rd party to book my room. This will be the last time I use expedia...they do not deliver on promises or agreements. I really would like to get my money back for this mishap.
