Clearly recently renovated. Clean rooms, very comfortable beds, nice staff, convenient location. Coffee downstairs was very good - freshly ground. Pantry doesn’t really have anything but snacks but groceries nearby and full frig and cooking setup in the room if you need that. We will be back!

Our stay was awesome. The staff was very helpful and had excellent customer service.
We will definitely be staying there again our next trip to Delaware, and telling family and friends about Candlewood. The sugar cookies and hot chocolate is an awesome touch that they provide.

This was the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The room was extremely clean. A 10 out of 10. The hotel had an appearance that it was brand new. The dishes and silverware had a shine to them.
The bed was very comfortable and the were crispy clean.
