Blake, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This is a nice hotel with a great hot breakfast, nice pool, spa, and patio, and really comfortable rooms. While it might seem far from the center of Gainesville, not being near Archer Road and all the traffic of that area made it super easy to get around where we needed to go. We'll definitely try to stay here again.

Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Every single staff member we spoke with or had any interaction with was friendly, kind, and helpful. They were quick with extra-anything we needed. We appreciated the option to reduce our carbon footprint with less room cleaning during our stay, and the front desk was always happy to give us extra towels, as needed. The building was clean and comfortable. The rooms were clean. 100% would stay here again.
