Dollar for dollar, with everything being accounted for, this was an excellent stay before a cruise.. the rooms are equipped with full kitchens which allows you to go food shopping and stock pile cold waters and beverages as well. I stayed here before a cruise and I’m glad I did. I chose this property for the price and the kitchen as well as the quiet neighborhood. This neighborhood is true authentic Miami suburbs and is filled with many lovely people. The gym was fantastic for the price, pool was clean and sanitized properly but did not have a view of anything. The rooms were clean enough to my liking. No complaints here. It was super quiet on the 4th floor

The room I was in was nice and spacious and was very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful when needed. The only issue I had with the place was the parking lot was very tiny and doesn't seem to fit all the guests staying. Towards the end of the night the parking lot will fill up leaving you to have to literally create your own spot to park in or park next door at the other hotel and walk over, which is just a bit inconvenient.

Our stay at Candlewood Suites Miami Exec Airport – Kendall by IHG (July 26 – August 3, 2025) turned into a nightmare. My infant son left this hotel with Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease and a serious bacterial skin infection (impetigo) that required emergency medical attention. This wasn’t “bad luck” — it was the direct result of filthy, poorly maintained facilities and a complete lack of hygiene protocols. The carpet in our room was visibly dirty, the pool and common areas were unsanitary, and I saw no evidence of proper cleaning or sanitization. On top of that, our bathroom toilet wouldn’t flush, and although maintenance eventually fixed it, a pipe began leaking in the bathroom shortly after. For a hotel that welcomes families, this is completely unacceptable. Because of this stay, I am now forced to take time off from work so I can care for my sick child while he recovers — adding financial stress on top of an already awful situation. I am sharing this so other parents know the risks before booking. Illnesses like these are preventable with basic sanitation, timely repairs, and responsible management. Until this hotel takes real action to protect its guests, it should not be considered a safe place for families.

Room was not properly cleaned Rugs were never vacuumed Must wear shoes or your feet will collect dirt floor Bathroom had no functional vent. After you shower you must open the door Shower tiles had mold Rooms are cleaned every 3rd day. You pay extra for daily service. If you need towels you must bring your towels to the main desk to exchange for clean ones. Hotel has an agreement with local hospital to place patients in hotel for post hospital stay. When we arrived there were several patients in the lobby. We thought we in annex of a hospital. My wife and I had a 6 day stay to see our grandchildren who live locally. Next time we will drive further away. The lobby has a nice look, but don’t let this outer shell deceive you. We travel numerous times a year but this stay was one of our worst stays ever. PS They don’t serve breakfast. You need to drive to get some food. Remember their price is one of the lowest but you get what you paid for. Pay a little more and get what you deserve.

The facility looked clean except for the dog poop on the outside grass area. The room looked clean but at night my legs were itchy, and the next day we all had bite marks on our legs. Room 417. And when we asked for a blow dryer, the front desk guy made us go down To grab an old sticky blow dryer bc he was alone and house keeping was out for the day. Housekeeping did not make our beds , take out the trash, or provide fresh towels the whole 3 days we were there.

The bathroom was just ok. It looked clean but newer towels would be nice. The floor in the bathroom needs to be updated to give it that sparkly clean look. A few more toiletries would have been nice too.

“Decent Stay, but Needs a Refresh” The suite had comfortable beds, and the kitchen was a convenient feature for preparing meals. The overall layout was nice enough, and it served its purpose for our stay. However, the suite could really use some updates—a fresh coat of paint and newer furniture would make a huge difference. While the essentials were there, the worn-out look took away from the experience a bit. If you’re not too picky and prioritize functionality over aesthetics, this could work for you. Otherwise, it might feel a little dated.

Disappointing Stay at Candlewood Suites — A Series of Avoidable Failures My recent one-night stay at Candlewood Suites was unfortunately riddled with issues from start to finish. To begin with, my reservation was specifically for a king bed, yet the hotel failed to honor it and instead assigned me a room with two double beds. No explanation, no apology — just a clear disregard for accuracy and guest expectations. The problems continued once I entered the room. The blinds would not fully close, leaving the space exposed to outside lighting and compromising both comfort and privacy. For a brand that caters to extended-stay travelers, such a basic oversight is unacceptable. Noise throughout the property made the stay even more unpleasant. Whether due to thin walls or poor management of common areas, the constant disruptions made getting any rest nearly impossible. Parking was another headache. Despite arriving at a reasonable time, there were no available parking spaces, forcing me to circle repeatedly and ultimately settle for a distant spot. Overall, Candlewood Suites failed to deliver even the fundamental elements of a comfortable hotel experience. Between the incorrect room assignment, malfunctioning blinds, excessive noise, and inadequate parking, this stay was deeply disappointing. I will not be returning and cannot recommend this location to other travelers.

The hotel it self smelled, attention to detail was missing. They had us stay on the third floor after I requested the 1st floor with plenty of time to accommodate request. Four guessed total room had two towels. Pool had no towels. Front deck denied my wife towels for the kids on the first night. Reason was house keeping was locked for the night. And they don’t show up tell 830-9am joke!! dishware was chipped sink was missing the center rubber spacer. 7 outlet plugs didn’t work including the lamp i between the queen beds. The landry basket had two out of three handles missing. Body wash was empty after third day. Ran out of toilet paper around 8pm went down to ask for some was told housekeeping not here. ??? Ok…. Came back to front deck the next morning before 830 to ask… was handed a box of Kleenex. Mattress sucked chairs where trash. We stayed at the BW next store in 2022 thought I’d give candlewood a chance. Was very disappointed. Would love a refund!!!
