We have been staying at the Candlewood for years. They have started renovations and things have changed for the worse. The new carpets, fresh paint and furniture are very nice. The problem(s) I had with the 2 queen room were; there were unwashed dishes in the dishwasher and no teaspoons. There were only small juice glasses. There was no clock or phone in the room. The only table to eat at was a smaller computer type table that faced the wall, with a single chair. The other chair was stuck in a corner with very little light and there was a small tray-table. If you sat anywhere other than on the beds, you couldn't see the TV. We couldn't eat together, one of us faced the wall, the recliner with tray faced the bathroom across the room. The curtains were nice and new, but they didn't come close to overlapping, which allowed the light from the parking lot into the room.
On a personal note, I have had hip and knee replacement surgeries, and the mattress was uncomfortably hard. The biggest complaint is that the room we had would have been fine for one person. If you like to look at your partner and converse while eating, you cannot. Same with relaxing in a chair to watch TV. I am hoping that maybe there are other rooms that will suit my desires. I would hate to have to find another hotel after 10 years. The person who designed this room should be made to stay in it with a partner for a week. Maybe they would realize how rediculous the layout is.
