The guy at the front desk was extremely friendly. Room was really nice. I typically pay twice as much for a room when I get a hotel. This room was just as nice as any of those. I will definitely be staying at Candelwood suites in the future.

I was so impressed by this particular Candlewood Suites. Upon arrival everything was above and beyond. I was staying there to visit my husband at Healthpark Hospital for open heart surgery. I felt frightened and the staff had shared my problem with me. Showering me with a vase of flowers and a desk like picture of a letter telling me they commended me for my bravery during this time. It was signed by all employees and stated how happy they could show compassion to my family as our roads crossed. I will never forget this Candlewood Suites in Fort Myers Fl. near Sanibel Gateway.

Had a minor issue with first room, staff moved us no question to a different room. If you are in Ft. Meyers this is a great option in a good location. The only possible con is no breakfast but we did not miss it.
