Had a fantastic few days here this weekend! We got in late and was welcomed by the happiest individual working night audit, Ray. He was a breath of fresh air after a 6.5 hour drive! Got to our room to find it nice and cool and spotless. Viance was the housekeeper on our floor and I noticed her consistency and time management was spot on.The beds were probably the best I've ever slept on in a hotel, comparable to a cloud. Kanika definitely runs a smooth housekeeping department and has a reliable and dedicated staff helping her keep the ball rolling! On Monday when we checked out Kenny was working front desk and you could tell he loves his job. His laugh is contagious! The pool and spa area are kept clean and the kids loved the warm pool with the waterfalls. The spa was fantastic. Not strong chemical smelling like some, I honestly had to ask if it was saltwater. All in all Keri (GM) runs a beautiful, well functioning, clean, welcoming hotel. If you find yourself in the Gainesville area I'd highly recommend this hotel(or the Holiday Inn Express that's on the same property!) Keri will ensure you're stay is top notch and has the best dinner and activity recommendations.

Stayed here while in town for an appointment at UF and had a great experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, and I especially appreciated being able to check in early. The location is excellent, with plenty of stores and restaurants nearby. Rooms are spacious and have a mini kitchen. The pool area was clean and well-maintained, with towels readily available and the bathrooms kept spotless. A nice bonus was the weekday happy hour, which included complimentary food and drinks, as well as a free breakfast each morning. Overall, a very comfortable and convenient stay - I would definitely return.

I can’t say enough about this hotel and the wonderful people who work there. I spent almost eleven weeks as a guest, while my husband was in Shands Hospital. I extended my stay at least 8 times, and every single time, my request was met with a smile and a “we’ve got you covered” attitude, even though the hotel was very full. The breakfast is amazing and the ladies who work hard to prepare it every morning are pleasant and kind to every guest. The rooms are super quiet which allowed me to work in the morning, and the bed was really comfortable. There is a nice laundry room available for free use and the gym is well equipped. The hotel is clean and bright, and located in a very safe area. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Gainesville!
