Very bad rooms

Checked it to first room got there and it smelled very moldy that’s because cause the air conditioner had the entire floor soaked! So I tried to cancel, but they said they couldn’t give me my money back because I booked through a third-party so they gave me another room. Got to this room and my TV did not work and they couldn’t call maintenance so I decided to take a shower and when I went to the bathroom, I noticed mold all on the ceiling. At this point I was feed up took both keys downstairs and left! Filed a complaint now wa in response! I really don’t want anything short of a free room and my money back it was awful!😡

The staff were nice. The room was fine. The only real issue was there was no ice available in the whole hotel. I checked in and I felt that the should have been spoken of during check-in and not after when I went to my room and noticed that I didn't have a ice bucket. Having a fridge in the room with no ice in the freezer didn't help my one night stay overnight

No pool!! Fasle advertising

They advertise a pool but the pool has been closed for a year. We booked this hotel because it had an indoor pool. And in fact it is closed. They say under maintenance but being shut down for a year...

Misleading Listing and Poor Conditions

We’re a traveling basketball team, and we booked Candlewood Suites in Bloomington specifically for the pool and the in-room fridge—both important when you’ve got a group of kids and a weekend full of games. While the fridge is a decent size, it definitely needed a proper cleaning (some mystery liquid was lurking in the drawers—yikes). The biggest issue? The pool. It’s been out of order for nearly a year, but that wasn’t mentioned anywhere when we booked. If we had known, we absolutely would’ve chosen a different hotel. The photos online are misleading. Cleanliness was also a letdown. One of the bathroom pictures in our room had long hair caked to the glass—like it hadn’t been wiped in forever. And unfortunately, every room our team booked had a weird, musty funk to it that was impossible to ignore. Needless to say, our team won’t be staying here again, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else either—especially if you’re traveling with kids or expecting basic amenities to match the listing.
