This is a very new, very hip extended stay residence. Or, for a vacation week or weekend away. From the front desk to the pool my experience was so beyond my expectations. Everyone was kind, friendly and willing to go the extra mile for their guests. Clean, well appointed suites, beautifully landscaped grounds, a pool and spa with a patio grill and fresh brewed coffee 24/7 (!) made me want to stay longer!! Candlewood Suites Mesa puts you near everything! Shopping, food, movies, hiking trails, it's all minutes away. I highly recommend!!!

Staying here for an evening and was pleased with my stay. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean and looked nice. The pool area was nice and relaxing, and they have a good laundry area too. I enjoy the full kitchen, and is probably for more extended stays, but still nice to have everything you need. Friendly staff and was greeted each time in passing. No breakfast so you need to bring food to cook in the kitchen or venture out. Overall very happy with the room and stay.

My room was not cleaned very well, cupboards had crumbs and very dusty, the remote has something spilled on it (clearly not wiped off between stays), coffee pot in room is gross, the thermostat on the wall doesn't control the air conditioner. Pool is filled with bugs, not a big deal I can skim it... But when asking the front desk if I could use the skimmer apparently only maintenance can do that. The rooms could be nice if they were better maintained, and allowing the guests to swim without a thousand bugs and just putting a skimmer by the pool would have raised my ratings, not too crazy of thoughts.

I will preface this review with I was in the hotel/resort business for 13yrs. I have built hotels from the ground up and Managed multiple hotels simultaneously. With that being said I was disappointed in this property. I don’t believe it’s even a year old and the interior looks like it’s been open for years. The 3 employees that stood out with exceptional service was the 2 front desk gentleman and the maintenance guy. They were all extremely friendly and personable. I will say the view from my room was amazing but the room itself needed some work. There was no closet, but they had a basket on the floor with hangers and an iron inside of it. The bathroom floor/counters were rough looking. They looked dirty but weren’t. It was from the build out of the hotel. They only had 1 coffee pot for the entire hotel and it was broke one of the mornings we were there. They don’t serve breakfast (which is fine because they have a full kitchen) so we had to venture out to find a coffee shop. Laundry…machines were dirty inside as was the floor. The washer took 90min to wash a handful of items and the dryer shut off before the 30 min was finished. The hallway floors were very dirty. They weren’t vacuumed the whole time we were there. The parking is large and well lit and across the street there are food options. I almost never give a bad review but with the rates as they are right now due to “high season” I expected better.

Clean room, very comfy bed, the kitchenette was great! We only stayed one night but everything was to our liking. One thing to note; they charge you $3.25 for parking and put a $50 hold on your card for incidentals. That wasn’t a problem per se but it seemed strange to pay $3.25 at check- in for parking (shrug?). Breakfast is not offered but the kitchenette comes with utensils, cookware, etc. which would be convenient for anyone staying longer than one night. There is a free laundry service offered that we didn’t utilize but that seemed like a nice amenity for guests.
