Only problem was that the shower door was almost stuck open. Once we got it loose, it was fine as long as we didn’t slide it all the way open again.

The room was exactly what we expected on arrival-very clean. We stayed 6 full days. During that time we received 1 service for clean linens & room cleaning. We had a barking dog across the hall for an entire day into the evening. Breakfast during the week had no variety, until our last morning. Coffee had a bitter taste all week. Any time we talked to staff, they were all very pleasant.

The young man that checked us in was positively delightful! The room was fine but it had a handicapped button. I assume that meant it was handicapped accessible However the toilet was so low no handicapped person could use it. The faucets in the sink were very difficult to operate. Other than those things it was a pleasant stay

Walls are paper thin. Can hear man snoring from room next door and could hear all conversations. Chips on floor (we didn’t have chips)

Great stay with the grandchildren
We were delighted that we had a separate room and bathroom for the children. Nice lay out that the living room/kitchen was in between so we had some sound deadening.

Nice refuge from Milton
We evacuated from the recent hurricane. The room was nice and spacious, more than we needed. Really nice to have coffee maker, refrigerator, etc.

I enjoyed staying here while visiting my daughter in Gainesville! The property was very clean. The rooms were spacious. The breakfast had a good amount of options. The beer and wine pour option was a great addition also. When I come back to visit her again, I will stay here.

Tis property was safe and clean. The rooms were spacious and well kept. The front desk staff was pleasant and professional. The buffet breakfast was one of the better ones that I've had with a variety of items to choose from. There was coffee (reg and decaf) as well as hot water for tea offered at all times in the dining area. Would definitely stay here again!

The property was very expensive for what they offered. Part of this was due to a UF home football game. Never the less, I felt like there could have been more services offered like daily housekeeping and evening complementary drinks and food. Also the breakfast was average at best. Too much grease added to every hot item on the buffet.

Needs work
The waffles were terrible. Our room never got cleaned despite us being gone from 9:30am to 9pm. The hotel leaves the LED pool light on all night so the light shines through the sides of the curtain so the room isn't dark. The lady who worked the breakfast area was almost rude.
