Candlewood Suites Mobile-Downtown, an IHG Hotel

"I invite anyone to stay a night or two. There's always something to do in Mobile Alabama. Just because Mardi Gras parade has ended in downtown Mobile. There's still a parade in Pritchard, Alabama Saturday morning at 10:00 AM be there."

"Had a great stay downtown at candlewood hotel! Service was wonderful and the location was just perfect! My only caveat would be the lack of towels."

"Nice hotel within walking distance of the civic center and other waterfront attractions. There are washers and dryers that guests may use for free. Bring your own detergent and dryer sheets or purchase at the front desk. A small gym is located on the ground floor adjoining the laundry room. Guest rooms are nice and spacious. The small kitchen was a huge plus!"

"**Never open your doors for strangers (especially at night!!) when traveling in new city!!** We are two young female travelers who arrived late and checked into our room that we booked online. Front desk attendant was friendly, room was clean and beds were comfortable. At 1:30am, we received 2 calls to our hotel phone. We answered the second call and it was the desk attendant, she asked if we could come out to the elevator to help her see if it was working. When we declined this request, she said she had the wrong number, then scrambled to change the story saying that she needed to change our room. We said we didn’t need a room change. A few minutes later, someone knocked at our door (we did not open the door and she did not stand in view of the peep hole), again saying that she was there to help us change our room- something we never requested nor felt we needed. When we declined to open the door, she left very quickly. This was all around an uncomfortable experience to have so late at night, and it left us feeling like someone was trying too hard to get us to open the door/ get us to leave our room without directly addressing why. We asked the new front desk attendant about it the next morning, and she could not find any reasons as to why a hotel employee would be trying to contact us so much, especially so late at night. Lastly, our room was double-charged and management has been slow to correct the situation. We wanted to leave this review to warn fellow travelers to be extra safe and aware in case things like this happen often at this location. *8 months later, we have not heard any follow up responses per the general manager’s promise, and we will never have answers to this scary situation that we will never forget.*"

"I was quickly reminded as to why I stay at Marriott hotels. The room was dirty — hair in the shower, nightstand with stains on it, even the “room cleaned by” card was reused as it had requests from previous person written on the back of card. The room smelled of mildew. To make it worse the towels I received had black curly hairs stuck in them… I was stuck on bottom floor and it was very loud at night with people coming and going and bringing their dogs by the room. This was a terrible experience and will definitely be sticking with my Marriott loyalty."
