    quiet atmosphere

    Family with children would enjoy this place

    The staff was incredibly friendly and easily helped me switch my room when the AC didn’t work. I really appreciated the quiet atmosphere while working on my research project.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but for the service and comfort, I found it acceptable.

    nearby dining

    great walking paths and nearby dining options make it worthwhile

    The best part of my stay was the easy stroll to Sweetwater Park, where I loved enjoying the lush green spaces, and having delicious pizza a few steps away at Leonardo's Pizza by the Slice made my exploration all the more enjoyable. perfect for someone who likes to wander and discover new places.

    value for money
    cool room

    It was just a balanced option for a quick break in Gainesville with very good value for money. The AC unit was loud, but at least it kept the room cool enough during the hot days. Make sure to check if your keycard works before lugging your bags upstairs.

    would love to stay here again

    Location is perfect for visiting UF. The room had air conditioning, a microwave, refrigerator, flat-screen TV, and free toiletries. Facilities include a fitness center and an outdoor swimming pool with sun loungers and umbrellas. The staff was quick to help with any issues. Piesanos next door had good food too.

    limited seating
    inaccessible furniture

    I was impressed by the welcoming staff and the beautifully decorated lobby featuring lovely votive candles and decorative lanterns, which made for a warm atmosphere. The accessible amenities made it easy to navigate the hotel comfortably.

    More accessible seating options would be helpful.

    excellent location
    pizza place
    close access
    lack of breakfast options

    Staying here with my large family and four babies was manageable thanks to the excellent location near UF and the convenience of having a pizza place right in the lobby. We also loved the close access to great parks and local attractions, making our visit enjoyable.

    My wife says that a free breakfast would be a game-changer for families with kids. The lack of options made it challenging with little ones.

    easy access
    comfy beds
    great location
    outdated decor
    loud air conditioning

    The room was a bit outdated and kinda dreary. The air conditioning unit was super loud and didn’t really cool the room much, it felt stale. Fixtures looked grungy, and the bathroom stuff like shampoo was tiny. Toilet had some flushing issues. Comfy enough beds, though, so that helped a bit. The best part was definitely the location since it was so easy to get to UF and the nearby Publix for snacks.
