We stayed here for three days and enjoyed the free WIFI as well as the hot waffles at the free continental breakfast. We... More

It was a big football weekend and they jacked up the prices so much when the hotel is suppose to be a reasonable hotel, but I went ahead and booked it since most of the hotels were booked already. What a mistake that was. The bathroom was disgusting it had little dead roaches inside the bathtub. There was a blood... More

I have not stayed at a motel (outside access) since 1993. So I gave an "average" rating because it was neither a poor hotel experience nor a very good hotel experience. Stayed here after booking last minute for a Gator game. If you need a place to sleep and that is all you want to do, this is a low... More

I was late in booking a hotel for my family to attend the Gator football game and because everything else was booked, we were stuck with this hotel choice. I understand that all the hotels in Gainesville raise their rates on football weekends, but what I paid for this hotel is beyond reason. It is a low budget operation. The... More

After a very cordial and welcoming check-in, found a clean, spacious room with a nice bathroom. Not luxury, but fine. It's located next to services such as a Walgreen's and a car wash, several restaurants. Only problem was tv reception, green and snowy. And it would help if hotels would give you the wi-fi code when you check in. The... More

I stayed here with some friends and paid a great overprice because of a game in town. Don´t know exactly how much they charge but I wouldn´t pay much. It looks very sad, inside and out, in boring surroundings, pool looks just awful. Beds are okay, make sure you go for a quick shower cause you just want to get... More

The whole property was ugly and rundown. The buidling was old and tired, the landscaping scraggly. The room was awful. It stank of mold combined with some kind of carpet powder. We made it a little better by running the AC at an uncomfortably cold level, but then it was unpleasantly chilly. The linens were so skimpy and cheap that... More

I normally wouldn't stay in a hotel with cheaper prices simply because they lack class and attract the undesirable. The structure is old and needs renovating. The bathtub finish was peeling. The bathtub rubber mat was permanently filthy and would not come clean. So I actually brought lysol and bleach to spray the room down because I literally felt sick.... More

Stayed at this place for a couple of days while working in Gainesville. Because I travel all the time my suitcase contained over $50 in loose change for laundry and the snack machine. I have stayed in hundreds of hotels across the southeast and this is the only time I have been robbed. My co-worker also had his cologne stolen.... More
