My stay here at Super 8 in Gainesville was very enjoyable. The front desk staff was friendly, the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. There was complimentary wireless internet and continental breakfast. The room did look like it had been recently updated with new hardwood floors. One thing I should mention that is somewhat outside of the hotel's... More

I've been staying in Super8 for couple nights and I did not have a feeling that I was staying at the hotel. Nowadays it is very hard to find not expensive and at the same time nice and clean hotel. But I found it and the name of this hotel is the Super 8!!!!!!! The location is great, very quiet... More

Stayed at this expensive and mold.smelling joke of motel this summer. Staff was young and unexperienced, and sighed even as they saw us aproach the counter. (I guess its much more fun to play with your phone than help guest or solving problems) there is no elevator so you have to litterally pull your bags up the narrow och steep... More

The rate was great. The location didn't matter much because I was just sleeping there between destinations. The room was clean, and there was a coffee pot for the morning. The girl at the front desk was friendly when I checked in, and the check out process was just fine. More

I was actually very surprised with the condition of the room. I had a non-smoking room and the hallway did smell of smoke. I will be cautious of motels that allow pets to stay next time though. I think the room we had had a pet in it before because there were a few hairs in the bathtub. Overall though,... More

If you have a chance to stay somewhere else: Do it! The smell of the room, actually more of a basement room, was awful. Since the window couldn't be opened, we tried to get rid of the smell through the A/C, which didn't work. The offered room spray wouldn't have made this room any healthier. By the way: The TV...

Front desk staff was nice. I only stayed one night and someone else paid for it. I was in a non-smoking room and could smell smoke from nearby smoking rooms. There were other issues, that could not be overcome due to physical limitations of the hotel. More

We were very pleased with our stay. Kim, the manager is who I talked to when making reservations. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Due to my husbands health, he cannot have any smells in the room, so I had to request no cleaning solutions or air fresheners be used.... More

We got to this motel late, well after dark. GPS got us to the door - it would have been tough without it. It's newer with clean rooms, friendly staff. Good value for the money! We will stop again. Rooms had refrigerators and microwaves. Breakfast was the usual for Super 8! More
