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.

Practical but uninspiring accommodation
Staff were excellent. Friendly and very helpful. Rooms were clean but not great condition. Broken safe. Leaking tap in the bath. Generally very tired looking. Ask for a room away from the main entrance or you'll have coaches idling outside your window for hours at a time.

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!

This Property is a DUMP!
This place was a dump! This place should have a zero star rating! The room was not ready at check in. Property and hotel were filthy. The bathroom was disgusting! Would NOT recommend this hotel and especially at the rate of $495. Very disappointed when hotels.com rated this property 7.8 Good. Not sure I can trust the ratings on this app.

Room was average, beds were average. Many cars driving around the hotel, did not make my family feel safe. Halls were dirty. However, the staff was courteous and friendly.
