The manor is decorated for Christmas throughout and made it even more spectacular! The history of the manor is interesting and primarily featured Hazel Buck Ewing's life. She was an equestrian and the stables were part of the tour. In each room a docent shared interesting factoids and historical facts about the manor. The cutting edge technology for the time period was also promoted, such as the concrete beams made to look like wood, and the "automatic" horse watering troughs. The manor was actually lived in until 1969, but was decorated for the holidays in 1930's style. The tour is a one night event and could easily become a holiday tradition.

We were midway on a road trip and stopped here, and it looked so promising online before actually experiencing it. The car area to drop bags up front is a small semi-circle and a bit chaotic. Cars get stuck easily if just one car up front takes too long. So it's kind of a weird 'welcome' as it is. From there, I think I may've experienced the most checked-out-check-in guy I've ever seen working the counter. It was actually impressive, like a caricature of someone who hates his job. I said hello, he stared at me. I guided him through how to check me in essentially, giving my ID, spelling my name out, and a credit card. He said not a word. I had to ask everything; ok and the elevators are that way? Breakfast is what time? Parking is where? etc. One big draw for this summer road trip with our longest day driving so no matter the weather, we knew they could swim here. Nope, pool was closed and that set everyone off. Girls were like "this trip stinks we wanna go home!" The room was fine, smelled a bit mildewed. Nothing too bad, but just fine overall. The breakfast the next day was poor quality, IMO. The oatmeal was impressive in that it was somehow super watery AND super thick and gummy. The fruit options are minimal, and it's sort of more 1990's continental breakfast than Hampton Inn. I was excited to see hard boiled eggs but they left the shell on and they were super sticky, so that was a one and done. Luckily the staff on the way out was friendlier than the guy before (would be hard not to be) and the hotel luggage carts came in handy. Other than that, very forgettable, and I would definitely go elsewhere next time around despite the nice location for this hotel.

On first glance this looked like a nice place. The exterior had a faux-chateau look, the lobby was…read morespacious, there was a bar, a restaurant, a pool, etc. Sounds good so far, right? Upon arriving in our room - again first glance was okay. But there was a large flickering light fixture in the bathroom, and when we visited relatives in another room the same thing was happening there. Not a deal breaker, but oddly annoying - though not as annoying as the barely lukewarm shower in the morning. Oh yeah - no bathroom exhaust fan either. WHY DON'T ALL HOTEL BATHROOMS HAVE AN EXHAUST FAN? For heating/cooling there was no 'constant fan' option in our room (though our relative's room DID have that feature), which meant overnight the a/c went ON AND OFF loudly on an irregular basis, usually just went we briefly dozed off. And when it was off you could hear every door slam, people talking in the hallway, doors slamming, and people running back and forth down the hall. That is until the a/c went briefly on again. Loudly. We asked the front desk for a fan (to use as some kind of white noise device) but they didn't have one. Pillows were flat and hard, only compounding what was easily the worst night sleep (or lack thereof) I have ever had in a hotel. And I have stayed in a few skeevy joints. The hotel bar apparently closed early on the night we wanted to stop in for a cocktail, so we missed out on that. The whole 'closing early' thing is also a pet peeve of mine. We were told we could not bring our own cocktails down to the lobby, though there was a large table of boisterous teenagers playing poker - so I guess that was ok but not four adults sharing a quiet drink. The room keys were very temperamental - working sometimes and not others. We were told when signing in not to keep keycards near credit cards or they wouldn't work (never had that issue other places, but whatever). Even keeping the key in a separate and empty shirt pocket did not prevent the wonky access issues, which required a few visits to the front desk to have the keycard 'fixed'. Complimentary breakfast was ok, though our party did have some disagreements on the food quality. In all fairness it was about what I was expecting. Short version: noisy, uncomfortable, noisy, and uncomfortable. I can't stress how horrible the overnight stay was here. Sure - your mileage may vary but you have been warned.

So ya gotta stick your finger in it and unwind the TP. And no hangers for wet towels. Small-ish TV, not able to log into Netflix or other apps like other hotel chains. No real plugs for device charging. Batteries for remote control were sealed in with electric tape. No safe for valuables. No alarm clock. I don't think the bathroom had a ventilator fan. Key cards were temperamental at best. Shower door was a half door, which I believe was intentional, however water ran out onto the bathroom floor. No housekeeping either? You apparently have to request housekeeping, however there's no signs or information at check in about requesting housekeeping. Elevator out of service at end of hallway. I leave reviews about once every two or three years. I felt I needed to leave this one. I had my high school senior dinner here and my fraternity end of year formal here. Those days seem to be over. This is a Wyndham property? Does corporate know about the condition of this hotel? Over 600$ for three nights. First night, Saturday, was 300$. I could have likely had a hotel in downtown Chicago for that.

Looks very similar to one we stayed at in Oklahoma, but without a lounge chair or separate chest of drawers. I loved the long table/counter with extra shelves to keep shoes and stuff off the floor. The end table between the beds also has extra shelves and plugins for charging electronics. The TVs also welcomed us by name and allowed us the option to stream content from our phones. Only complaint is that not all the features worked on the tv remote. The sleep timer and input buttons wouldn't work. The beds were super comfy and gave full sized pillows. The last hotel we stayed in only gave us small square pillows and only about three of them which equals about one and a half regular sized pillows...ridiculous. After staying here, we have decided that whenever traveling we will always stay at a Candlewood.
