Good location for an overnight stopover and the beds and room were very comfortable. The breakfast was also good and the staff friendly and helpful.
There was a strange pulsing strobe light on the sign pole of the adjacent Super 8 motel that flashed through our window, but it could be mostly blocked with the curtains.

Staff is so nice, and friendly. They accommodate well, to what you need. I needed a couple extra nights for the hurricane, and they gave me a discount also.

At the same time, the hotel had some really nice details, such as free popcorn and cookies in the afternoon and a free newspaper in the morning. Breakfast was generous even if very crowded. I would suggest to make turns to avoid having too many people in the breakfast room. Otherwise, the hotel could re-arrange the location of the breakfast food to make it easier to pick it when crowded.
The place needs some care. The wallpaper in the hallways was peeling off, the room bath was old, the hallways smelled of mold.

We were in Gainesville for a quick trip. Ended up needing to stay a night. I found this hotel and when we got there it was very comfortable and smelled very good. The desk clerk was very nice. Our room was very comfortable and huge! My daughter and I went to take advantage of the swimming pool and enjoyed ourselves. The king-size bed was huge. Breakfast was really good too!
Also, when my daughter (5 yrs old) got sick from the free popcorn they had (she said it was too spicy for her and it didn't agree with her little tummy) the desk clerk was concerned about her and gave us extra towels because we had gone thru them quickly.
Everything was great. We didn't want to leave lol

it was in a prime location
the popcorn was stale, the room smelled strongly of bleach, the sheets had stains, the elevator barely works and because our room was close to the elevator we would hear it thump every time it would go up or down.

Location was awesome as my husband was a patient at Shands. The front desk team was absolutely welcoming and amazing. I don’t have all their names but Joy and Alice stood out. The rest of that team was also wonderful. The kitchen attendant was so friendly and went out of her way to make sure everyone had a great breakfast!
