I had a wonderful stay at Candlewood Suites Fargo during my recent trip. The staff was friendly and efficient, making the check-in process a breeze. The room itself was spacious and equipped with a full kitchen, which I loved for preparing my own meals. However, the absence of a pool or breakfast options might not appeal to everyone. Overall, it was a perfect fit for my needs.

I had a decent stay at Candlewood Suites. The cleanliness and friendly staff were definitely highlights, but I missed having a breakfast option since it's an extended stay hotel. The kitchenette in my room was a plus for any late-night snacks! Overall, it was a good experience but there's room for improvement on maintenance.

I found Candlewood Suites to be a comfortable and spacious stay, ideal for anyone needing a fully equipped kitchen. The convenience of being near the airport was a plus, but the absence of breakfast options and some issues with room maintenance dampened my overall enjoyment. I would consider staying again, especially for longer visits, where the amenities can be more fully appreciated.

My stay at the Candlewood Suites was mostly positive, with great staff and a clean room, though there were a few hiccups. I really appreciated the kitchenette in my room, which added a nice touch. However, I noticed some cleanliness issues, like the carpet not looking well-vacuumed and a weird smell in the room.
