Came into Tuscaloosa for the first time, checking into the hotel was a breeze and general manager Taylor was totally awesome with all the help and advice for us. She gave us little ins and outs of the city and going to the football game. The Hotel was clean, friendly and staff was overwhelmingly helpful. Michigan Tide Family

The rooms were very clean and neat. The only issue i had is dogs was barking alot and when the housekeepers clean the rooms all that morning i heard the doors knocked with the latch up. so everytime they went into a room to clean i heard it. Kids on the 3rd level was running. I feel the housekeepers need to have a towel to leave the door open so they dont wake other guest up with the noise of the door opening and closing.

The staff at Candlewood couldn’t have been more welcoming and friendly. We were grateful to get a reservation on a game weekend. The building is in a noisy area of town. It is a bit dated but very clean and was a quick ride to campus. Thank you so much for your hospitality
