Candlewood Suites Springfield

Ventajas: Cleanliness and location

Desventajas: No towels in bathroom and was already in the shower before I noticed.

Ventajas: A great price for what's essentially a studio apartment; desk w/ chairs, full-size fridge, cooktop, microwave, sink, side chair, flat-screen TV, large bathroom w/ tub, closet, and a queen-sized bed. Quite a comfortable size for a couple on extended stay.

Desventajas: While the room was a nice size and the bedding was clean and very comfortable, the bed itself - the mattress - was as hard as a brick; like sleeping-on-the-floor hard. Woke up with a backache from it. Hotel might want to invest in some pillow-top inserts.

Ventajas: The front desk was more than accommodating and the location was very convenient. Hotel itself was very clean.

Desventajas: Room 130 smelled of spicy food that was probably cooked in the room and the odor remained in the carpet or curtains. Not sure how you could prevent this with a kitchenette in room.

Ventajas: This room had a stove, microwave, and full sized refrigerator.

Desventajas: Bed said queen size but it was the smallest queen I've slept on.

Ventajas: Location and price

Desventajas: No pool
