“Excellent Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 18, 2013

My stay was wonderful! The room was clean and everything worked perfectly. The staff was friendly. Check-in and out was simple and quick. Having a kitchen inside the room was great - I could actually cook something instead of having to relay on the fast-food junk, like in other places. Atmosphere was peaceful. Parking no problem - right outside my room.

“dirt and noise”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 12, 2013

I was to stay 6 nights. The room was dirty. My white socks were gray within an hour of walking around in the room. The walls were dirty. The furniture was dirty and torn, very old. The guest noise and the highway noise were just terrible. We cut our stay short after 3 nights and went somwhere else.

Room Tip: go elsewhere

“Transient not hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013

Ok, room was ok for a night...cleanish. Didn't get maid service - suppose they don't clean rooms? Travellers are often 'residents.' Would not stay here again unless Gainesville is totally booked out....still better than Knight's Inn.

“great stay, great room, great price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

Spent a week here. Room was large (approx.12x25), well maintained and clean. Some slight stains on rug near the bath and two cigarette burns in bath (in a non-smoking room). Staff was friendly and helpful. Lots of parking. Rooms were a bit noisy so try for a room at the front of the hotel, the backside faces I 75. Bed was perfect, not too hard or soft. Location couldn't have been better, every chain restaurant you could desire within a mile. The UofF museums are only a couple of miles away. Discounts for a week or a month for snowbirds.

Room Tip: Front rooms are quieter than the back
