Kristina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Not a five star hotel by any means but a five star review due to friendly helpful staff and clean room. Rooms and property are a little shabby and very dated, but for the price the place is comfortable and staff fully serviced the room each night. If I come back to the area I will stay here again.

Worth it

The pwners are great. The room was nice and very comfortable. They go out of thier way to make you feel at home.
thomas, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The staff was nice. But rooms have adjoining doors (which you can lock) which leads to no sound insulation. The guy in the next room to me started screaming at 2am. When he stopped he turned the tv on all night long.
Gilly, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

While the gentleman on duty was extremely nice and welcoming, there was nothing else good about this place. In disrepair and questionable in all regards. The carpet was damp, the paint peeling, mold, and overall sketchy. If you can afford the extra 30 or 40 bucks, do yourself a favor and go with a known HOTEL chain. Lesson learned: I will never look for “a cheap place to crash” again.

4/10 Fair

It has roaches. Need to be updated and cleaned properly. Check in was smooth and the guy who checked us in was very nice.
Gloria, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at this hotel after a gators game and the receptionist was very kind are room had a very comfortable bed nice hot showers and a descent Tv. Only bad thing was a strong smoke smell but definitely worth what I payed for.
Scott, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It was very affordable, convenient to 75. Frig and MW provided. Personnel was professional and helpful, they came to open the office within minutes after ringing the bell. The beds were comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. The facility was older and though clean, fixtures were rusted. Wall unit and frig were noisy. Could hear TV and clear conversation from adjoining room. TV was in room, but no remote. Ice container and plastic liner provided, but couldn’t find ice maker anywhere. Overall, I got what I paid for. A good night’s rest and shower, a frig to keep my ice chest contents cold, but no frills.
Susan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Listen…for a $65 (with tax) room, I was not expecting much. And it did not disappoint. But to be fair, it was close by my event, the carpet was not dirty, and the beds appears to be well maintained. I was comfortable and it was pretty quiet. All in all, you won’t be impressed but youlll get what you paid for…a fairly clean, quiet and safe place to lay your head.
Mark, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We stayed there because we had no choice. We couldn’t find anything in Gainesville like we normally do. Place was old and outdated. Room was clean but basic. Towels looked dirty and we found roaches in room. Water pressure and hot water was great. Staff very nice and welcoming.
Nathalie, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Expect little and you won’t be disappointed

Stopped late for the night. Sorry to say you get what you pay for so my expectations were low but…I still felt I overpaid for a very poor stay. Hot water was excellent, and the woman at the front was Great but that’s about it.
