Candlewood Suites is an extended-stay hotel featuring fully equipped kitchens, large workspaces and signature bedding in each unit. A laundry, exercise room and outdoor pool are also available on premises to business and leisure guests, along with a business center, meeting space and free wireless high-speed Internet access.

"We have a great location for baseball fans, near the spring training facilities of the Minnesota Twins and the Boston Red Sox," says Fred Cerrone, Hotel Equities president and CEO. The new Candlewood Suites, which opened in mid-March, is located at 9740 Commerce Center Court.

This marks the city's second large hotel opening in the past month, with the seven-story Hotel Indigo Fort Myers having unlocked 67 rooms in the Historic River District. Meanwhile, Hotel Equities opened an 83-room Candlewood Suites last month in Macon, GA.
