My husband stayed there for two weeks while we were moving over from Sarasota and I visited while house hunting.

 

Pros:

 

Full kitchen

Nice pool (shared with Holiday Inn)

Nice staff

Convenient if you have a car

 

Cons:

 

Crappy part of town

Hookers in and out of hotel

Definitely not the popular area that gets talked about here. There are several hotels right there, with the Best Western and Hampton Inn across the road. There is a convenient plaza right across the road as well, although SR 84 is a busy road so be careful. I wouldn't pay Oakwood-area or 17th St money to stay over here but if rooms were cheaper here and really expensive elsewhere, I wouldn't hesitate. (and every hotel has hookers in them lol)

Location is the issue. And for the night in question the Hampton Inn Airport South (Stirling Rd/Oakwood Plaza) is actually less expensive than the Airport North property off SR 84 and in a much more walkable area with better restaurants and shops for only a pittance more than the Candlewood on SR 84.
