10/10 Exceptional

With no accomodation rooms in Gainsville, this location was an option. What a surprise it was very nice, well maintained, clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice and pleasant. We also saw other Gator fans staying here after the big football game. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Gainsville in the future.

Very nice clean place to stay
Lorie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The two women im kitchen were extremely rude and condescending. And lazy. They treated people horrible. Started cleaning up and taking food away at 8:30 even though breakfast is served until 9:00am. The front desk did nothing when I reached out to them. Multiple guests were not able to eat, including kids and they couldn’t care less. One of the women said “go next door, they have a big selection”. The rooms are nice and overall clean even though there is a moldy smell. They have a fridge and microwave, which it’s convenient. The surrounding area looks like a dump. Not going back to this hotel.
Ivon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Check in was a breeze. The room was older, but clean. The bed and pillows were unbelievably comfy, I slept fantastic. Free breakfast was adequate, we did not leave hungry.
