We have stayed in e counties in 3 nights. This was the most inexpensive room and the best stay of them all. The rooms are clean, beds are comfortable and the staff was phenomenal. I would stay here anytime we come to Gainesville.

We had to get a cost efficient room on short notice while waiting on my daughter’s baby to be born. This Location is very convenient to the hospital. Cost-efficient and service was great.

I was having some issues with my electric at home and I needed somewhere to stay a couple of days until it was resolved. I live about 40 miles from Gainesville and since I’m from the area, I was comfortable staying there. The bed is comfortable, heat worked great, takes a few minutes for the hot water to flow in the shower, and the room was clean. I also forgot my iPhone charger and the housekeeper make sure to turn it in so I was able to get it back. The main thing is it is an older hotel and could stand some updates/renovations but otherwise it was good.

The walls are very thin, I could hear my neighbors, anyone walking outside and anyone above.. however, the room was large, clean, and the lobby had breakfast. I enjoyed it being so close to everything in town, and I enjoyed how pretty the scenery around was. My fridge did not work, my bathtub had no stopper, but none of these were deal breakers. The doors has multiple locks, the pillows plenty and fluffy. I stayed a week, and I wouldn't mind staying again if I needed to. Friendly staff, good breakfast.

Overall it was a fine stay. We requested a non-smoking room but it still smelled like smoke and musky. For the little time we spent in the room we made it work for the price vs the price of others in the area. The wall lamps next to the beds were very dusty and looks like it’s been missed cleaning for a while but other than that the room was clean. We lost power the first morning for about an hour or a little over and there was no backup generator that kicked on so we were without power the whole time the power was off and then it came back on and no further problems. The parking is well lit but there was a lot of people walking around outside and at times you could hear them
