    great walking destination with park views and nearby attractions

    I appreciated that the breakfast offered a variety of options including fresh fruit and waffles, which was a nice touch for morning meals. The proximity to Depot Park and the Cade Museum made my city strolls truly enjoyable as everything is just a short walk away.

    More fun than I expected!

    The hotel’s location is unbeatable, surrounded by eclectic restaurants and bars just a short stroll away. The atmosphere is friendly, and the staff are genuinely eager to help. My stay was enjoyable, though the communication about breakfast options could use some clarity. Overall, a great spot for exploring the area!

    Sure, it wasn't exactly a bargain, but I expected to pay for quality.

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    The lobby was an inviting space, filled with good snacks like gummy bears. 🎉 Our room was super clean and equipped with high-quality pillows that ensured a restful night. The downtown location was perfect, giving us easy access to local dining and lively events just steps away!

    Strongly recommend! ❤️🌟

    noisy disturbances
    unsafe area

    Great breakfast options available every morning.

    My stay was plagued by noisy disturbances all night. There were motorcycles revving and loud music blaring well into the early hours, making it nearly impossible to get a good night's sleep. Additionally, the area felt unsafe, with a nearby bum fight that was alarming to witness while walking back to the hotel.

    housekeeping hero
    unexpected expense
    noisy air conditioner

    Dude, can we talk about the nearby eats? Dragonfly Sushi & Sake Co. is a must-try, and the Gelato Company and Artisan Deli made my taste buds dance! Also, I have to shout out Shay, our housekeeper, she was a lifesaver, hooking us up with supplies when the management dropped the ball!

    But hold up, the parking situation was a bummer. $30 a night? Yikes! And the AC was as noisy as a Gainesville football game night. I wasn't there for the nightlife. I just wanted to crash after a long day.

    The location is excellent, with easy access to restaurants and bars. Parking is annoying, though. $30 a night adds up quickly.

    The breakfast featured homemade tofu and other varied options, which was a nice way to start the day. However, the parking fees were steep at $20 per night, and the room showed signs of age, especially the bathroom. Additionally, the digital key malfunctioned upon arrival, making check-in frustrating and inconvenient.
