Hotels near Aquarium Concepts Servicing in Kendale Lakes

Everything and everyone were very accommodating. I don't have any complaints, definitely recommend this hotel. Breakfast could be a little better by changing the frozen omelets but they still offer different options.

I was in Miami with my dog to fly him to Belize. We spent the first two nights at the Candlewood next to the airport which was a fine hotel. My dog’s Amerijet flight was delayed two days so I needed to extend and so I needed to find another dog friendly hotel—the Candlewood in Kendall was available and was $65 per night less expensive than the one next to the airport. Contrary to other review I read, this place was wonderful: clean, quiet and comfortable. The room was huge and everything worked great. No complaints. It is a 30 minute drive to the airport which I did not mind. I highly recommend this hotel!

We had a great stay. The hotel is next to major roads if you are going to downtown Miami or elsewhere. The breakfast included was basic, and with high quality products and offerings. The one observation is that you have to request room cleaning service 24-hrs in advance or they won't come to clean the bathroom and empty trash cans. I was fine with not changing sheets and towels everyday for eco-friendly reasons, but I would suggest the front-desk to remind guests of this cleaning-upon-request. However, when we did ask for room cleaning the day before we left, the front desk graciously made that happen that same day. I will stay there again on my next trip.

This hotel should be very inviting, a beautiful property, good location, great pool and good rooms. That being said the hotel has miles to improve on service including their front of house team and the front desk agents. Mariah (apologies if the spelling is incorrect) is rude, dismissive, and lacks any sort of general customer service skills and not someone you want representing your brand at the front desk. She lacks any loyalty awareness, and has no care in the world if you express any concerns about your stay or experience to her. Really ruins your experience when you get treated by the face of the brand like that on your first experience as you walk in the hotel. After reading many reviews on the property it seems like the response of the hotels is that of, let’s defend ourselves and not addresses anyones concerns so I don’t expect much from the management to try and fix anything. On a side note, hotels have guaranteed check in times however traditionally one may show up before this time and can usually check in if their room is ready or wait for a room to be prepared. This hotel decides in an absurd fashion that even if your room is ready they have a $30 early check in fee. Penny pinching at its finest when you pay hundreds of dollars for your stay. This hotel has a long way to go in terms of learning how to appreciate its customers and train their employees with basics of customer service. Marriott is the way to go. Bonvoy loyalty matters to all of Marriott’s brands and service makes you feel welcome in their property not like you’re a burden for being their like this property does.

Great location, good service at the front desk.

I’ve stayed at this property numerous times over the last couple years and never had an issue until this stay. To start with I was charged a $40 fee on 2 separate credit cards for incidentals ($80 total). My first morning after arrival I discovered ants in my bathroom and kitchenette. I notified the front desk about the double charge on my card and about the ants in my room. They assured me the ants would be taken care of and that my one card would be credited back the $40 in 24 hours. (It’s been almost 72 hours now). Upon returning that night to my room I noticed there were still some ants. I assumed they had treated and that all would be fine by the morning. When I woke up Sunday morning I found ants all over my belongings in the bathroom on the counter and in the kitchenette all throughout the sink. I was departing that day so I packed my things, went downstairs, notified the young lady about the ants again and she didn’t seem overly concerned but acknowledged me as she did the day before. I got home a few states away and when unpacking my belongings low and behold I have ants in my stuff. (As a side note I don’t have any food items packed with my belongings.) I then began looking through my credit card statement and found another pending charge for $10 on top of the 2 separate $40 pending charges on my 2 separate cards. I contacted the hotel and they assured me again this would be removed within 24 hours. I also let the lady who I spoke with know that I was very displeased with the ants in my room and the fact that I brought ants home. Her response to me was “you should have reported it when you were here and we could have moved your room”. At this point I told her that I did report it twice and was told the room would be “sprayed”. The lady on the phone then said “oh I so sorry the girl who was working on Saturday is new and still training and maybe she did not know that we cannot spray the room when you are there because you could maybe have an allergy to the spray or something and that you should have been moved to another room.” She said she would have the manager contact me Monday morning. It is Monday afternoon as I write this review and the manager has yet to call me. I also messaged Marriott regarding the issue and they also have not gotten back to me. It’s a shame because this is a really nice property and I would stay again if they would have the decency to make it right for my last trip. I have attached some photos of the ants but these were taken after I cleaned off the counters so I could get ready to leave the room

The hotel was nice, staff were nice, and the breakfast was OK. Since we were in our rooms for most of the morning when staff cleaned, we didn't get our rooms cleaned during the 3 day stay. When we asked for clean washcloths, there weren't any. We were given hand towels instead. The location isn't the best, but I liked that it was within walking distance to the shopping center with Target. Other than this, it was a good stay.

I thought it was close to the Everglades Park, so I booked this hotel. I went to open the room and saw the waiter just sent the towel inside. I casually said a sentence to one more, because the three of us, a person like a black manager, and the waiter explained the number of towels after check-out. Can I eat a towel hungry?

I needed a clean, quiet place ideally between the Airport and FIU with some extra space and a kitchen. I didn't use the kitchen as much as expected but it was indeed nice to have, and the place was very clean. I had a couple of maintenance items while here which were handled courteously the same day. I also tried out the locker, borrowing a DVD player. It worked great. As for noise, you can indeed hear airplanes very well from inside the room. I was never awakened by them and note that fewer fly during the night. Several restaurants are an easy walk from here, so I tried Venezuelan food and Lebanese, both really good. There is no Safe in the room.

Not far from the airport, within 20 minutes by car, close to the large local mall Dolphin mall, convenient shopping. The room is clean and the facilities are very new. The dissatisfaction is the breakfast. There is nothing to eat. The room does not provide free mineral water. It costs $ 2 for a bottle and only $ 1 for the big bucket in the supermarket.
