Lakisha

Disliked: Cleanliness
I was disappointed in housekeeping. The lady did not clean the tub after I had to wait 4 days because the first housekeeper did not clean the bathroom! When I said something about it, she went in and wiped it with a towel! It cost to stay here! the services are only offered every 7 days so it seems they would do a good job. Se did not sweep or mop the floor, but i passed her today doing that in another room! I was really annoyed by that!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I know the hotel services only 7 days. The day my room was to be cleaned, the young lady never cleaned the toilet or the tub and proceeded to leave! I let the office know for 4 days in a row and no one ever came back to clean it until today. And even with today I had to remind the lady that the tub need to be cleaned. I have stayed here for quite a bit and spent some money here. For the most part the staff has been nice and that the first time I had an issue with the room being serviced.

I was in need of a comfortable bed, a hot shower, in the exact location of the intersection of highway 55 and highway 54 in Durham. The Candlewood Suites delivered on all three conditions, plus the room looked exactly like it was pictured so I have absolutely no complaints.
