2/10 Poor

Will not stay again…

The water in the shower was cold even when the knob was moved all the way to the hot. We asked for maintenance to come and all they did was move the nozzle head and adjust the pressure. I had to take 3 cold showers and wash my face in the sink with cold water the entire time. We were never comped anything and barely received an apology.

8/10 Very good

a place to sleep

its a hotel, nothing special, was under construction so they are trying, close to everything you may need including highway access. the room was 8 out of 10, I bring a blacklight and the bed passed inspection but the floors did not, bring slippers or flip flops. breakfast is an up charge which I thought was ridiculous. nice common area for gathering. internet speed was basic. again its a hotel to rest your head. would stay again

10/10 Exceptional

My First Stay; Not My Last

It appears to be an older place, yet it was well kept. The room was clean and comfortable. The check-in was great and Elaina was very personable and accommodating. They have a bar and a breakfast (for a cost), although I didn’t use either. It’s not a 5-star spit shine, but well worth a weekend stay.
scott, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

rug is filthy tile floor gross wall in bathroom damaged just all around old and dirty. lamp shade all stained and crooked. bedding was clean so we stayed the one night. pool was green.

Great stop.

Great convenient stopover right off 75 on the way further south on our vacay. Great bar and bartender Jade. Nice warm outdoor pool.
Derek, 1-night trip

Homeless panhandlers on corner before main road, pool was icky, elevators are slow and scary

6/10 Good

Good for a quick night’s sleep

Just a layover while travelling on the I75. Great beds, quiet airco, good basic gym. Plenty of parking.
Ruben, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I stayed in this hotel because I needed to be close to Shands for my surgery. Not only did my room keys not work, it took 2 hours for the AC to cool off the room. Very disappointed.
Chiquita, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location if you nee4d to be close to UF Medical or down town areas, and still be able to jump on highway for travel. The staff was especially kind, welcoming. The snack bar is great. Breakfast is a bit ordinary, but for5 the price its fine to be right across the street from First Watch. The bar restaurant has amazing food options. and delicious! Kudos to that chef!
Rhea, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel is clean, nice looking, quick drive to UF. Staff is very nice and helpful when we needed to print something. Beds are comfortable and AC working well. The only thing I would not recommend is $15 breakfast which I found largely inedible, but since it wasn’t included in price of my room I’m not taking a star off for it.
Anna, 2-night trip

Definitely different to the reviews I have read previous to our stay. Hotel is very worn and loud. Would not stay again.
