Excellent Customer Service

Our stay was awesome. The staff was very helpful and had excellent customer service. We will definitely be staying there again our next trip to Delaware, and telling family and friends about Candlewood. The sugar cookies and hot chocolate is an awesome touch that they provide.

Had a kitchen. Free laundry must purchase detergent. Thiese were a plus. Bed was comfortable. Only thing was shower curtain too short & water got onto floor. Should replace with sliding doors as the rod being lowered won't help with someone tall Sorry no breakfast. They do sell food in convenient grocery in lobby
