Verified Reviews of Candlewood Suites Pensacola University Area by IHG

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:

"Very upset with the room."

Overall Score2.0/ 5

The pictures didn't match the room I thought I reserved. No carpeting, no couch, I thought the suite. according to the pictured was two rooms with small living room/kitchen area. Then when I got here. the elevator was out. I'm handicapped so they placed me on the second floor. For three days I had to struggle to get up two flights of stairs everytime I went out. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.
