Pros: Nice new and clean hotel with convenient location and good staff.
Cons: Demand pricing was crazy high. No hot water in evening or in morning. Bathroom light is on motion sensor and doesn’t recognize movement when in the shower so goes dark constantly.

Check-in was very delayed due to limited cleaning staff. The front desk staff was overwhelmed and apologetic. The hotel was at capacity due to multiple sports tournaments in the State College area. The room set up was convenient for a family and the hotel itself is new. Throughout the hotel there were overflowing trash cans, lobby bathrooms were clogged and never had the trash removed or paper towels replaced. It was clear that the hotel was understaffed in terms of maintenance and upkeep. During our stay, we encountered a very rude front desk attendant. She refused to offer us a late check-out (even though the check-in was two hours delayed). She came out to yell at our group while we were eating in the lobby and continued to be rude to other customers. The following morning, the new front desk attendant offered us a late check-out. Our daughter and her entire team used the pool. Upon our arrival home, our daughter had red sores on her feet and her eyes were swollen. Within the following 24 hours, her entire body was covered in the red bumps. The entire team that stayed in the hotel and used the pool was covered in the rash. They were diagnosed with folliculitis (staph) from the pool. This hotel has a great location and the room set up is family friendly. Unfortunately, they need more staff and better upkeep.

BEWARE, DO NOT stay here! Was staying at Candlewood Suites in Bellefonte for my daughter’s basketball tournament. Should have known from my check in this was not going to end well. Check in was at 3pm, arrived at 3:40pm and was given my room. My room was not cleaned, beds were unmade and went back to lobby to get a cleaned room. When I said the beds were unmade the front desk replied back, well, is it clean? I said no of course it’s not clean and was told they only have two housekeepers and are working overtime, I need to wait! Waited well over an hour in the lobby for a room. During our stay the girls from the basketball team went swimming in the hotel’s pool, all the girls who swam came home with a doctor diagnoses of folliculitis, some completely covered some sporadic. Some girls had to go back to the doctor (two in one week) due to styes on their eyes and swimmers ear! Also, during our stay there was some suspicious activity with homeless looking people there, looking like crack heads and falling asleep during daylight on the chairs outside of the hotel. They were also in the lobby cuddling a kitten in a weird way! Corporate (IHG) has been called by the team’s parents, department of health, BBB, hotels.com, the police, and Candlewood management. Candlewoods management is denying and lying to corporate about their pool and they are not cooperating. Long story short, don’t waste your time here!

The day we decided to use the indoor pool it was not heated and the water was cold. The eggs were cold most days. The room had a kitchen but no place to sit and eat.

We got in late from traveling about 11:15pm and they were very busy at this time. About 7 families checking in. They only had one person handling the desk and she also had to clean our 2 very expensive rooms. They were nice but you should not charge so much for the lack of service. I would very much like to have my credit card credited for at least one room
