The best staff ever

I had some car issues so had to extend my stay indefinitely. Michael and Demi were so kind to me and Cassandra was also very nice. The people who clean the rooms were very considerate of my specific needs. The hotel was very clean and everyone had a smile and said hello. My brother lives in Gainsville and there is no other place I’d stay.

This location was perfect for us. Easy on and off the highway. The staff was very professional and welcoming. Our room was clean and comfortable. The air smelled fresh but the scent in the lobby trigered my allergies. May I suggest you tone it down?

We had a terrible night’s sleep! There was some kind of alarm bell that woke us up. I could hear it in the hallway. I initially thought it could be a fire alarm, but my husband said it wasn’t loud enough for it to be that. It finally stopped after 15 minutes. At around 5:30-6 we heard the clock alarm from the common door room next to us. We had to call the front desk to go to the room. We were told the alarm was going off while guest was in bathroom and he couldn’t hear it??? Obviously, not enough noise buffering!! We won’t be back.
