I would NOT recommend this property and will never stay here again. After checking in, we noticed some cleanliness issues with our room. I went down and talked to the front deck which told us they would be taken care of. No one ever came and handled the issue. We never would have stayed in the room had we known it wouldn’t have been recleaned. We went swimming the next day and there was an awful smell at the pool that MULTIPLE guests were talking about what smelled with urine and a dead animal. The fire alarm went off twice, once while my son was napping and once before 8 am the next day. The “kitChen” was stocked with 1/4 of a roll of paper towels and one spoon and one knife. Two of the disposable coffee cups were provided for our whole stay and were never replenished. I discussed all our concerns with the “manager” Jason, who said he would look into it all and promptly call me. We rechecked in while we were checking out to be told he was doing some paperwork and would call us. Never received the call. Save yourself some time and book at the staybridge across the road, you’ll be much happier.

Good stay in Gainesville

I enjoy staying at the homewood suites. The rooms are comfortable and adequate size. The suite with the couch and sitting area does give you enough room to move around. The small kitchen is great to have to cool drinks and leftover food from the nearby restaurant. The Wednesday night mixer is a nice way to have some snacks and the free beer and wine. The hvac does go into Econ mode when you are not there. Our air conditioner increased the temp when we were out and went back to our set temp when we came back.

Not the greatest Gainesville hotel

After driving four hours for our short overnight stay, we arrived at 11 pm. The desk attendant said the computers were rebooting for her shift, and it almost 40 minutes for us to be able to get the keys to our room. Walls and ceiling were very thin to where we could hear everything going on above us and next to us.

Housekeeping was abysmal! After 4 days of NO service I had to ask, multiple times, for towels, coffee, shampoo, conditioner, etc. The room was just poorly stocked and maintained and no one seemed to care. Our trash stacked up, there was no resupplying in the kitchen or bathroom and the dead roach in the kitchen was disgusting. We were staying for 10 days and our bed was straightened twice… I must say that I expected more from a Hilton property and I will not stay there again. The breakfast area also had problems staying stocked.

Decently cleaned. Comfortable accommodations. 4 stars only because I feel like it’s understaffed in the evenings. There was no more towels left at the pool so we had to walk back to our rooms wet. When I checked in after 6 pm I had to wait a significant amount of time before the front desk person returned. The staff itself was friendly and accommodating.

We have stayed at this property several times. We get a room that is accessible due to some disabilities my has, however this time the seat for the accessible shower had been removed, even though it was advertised to have the seat and the picture showed the shower to have a seat. This created a situation where the shower was useless to my wife.

Good hotel - GREAT staff!

This is a good hotel with great people. The facilities are better than most at this price point. The rooms are clean, newly painted and relatively quiet. I had some issues with the TV remote, but that's a minor issue. There is a gym, and pool and half-court basket ball. The breakfast was fine with what I've come to expect from these types of stays: scrambled egg, sausage or bacon, toast, some fruits, yogurt, etc. and of course - a waffle station. Everything was clean. - They do have good coffee! Location was fabulous! It is close to the interstate and very close to restaurants and shopping, and only minutes from the University, but far enough away to avoid student traffic. What impressed me most was the staff. Someone showed up late for breakfast besides me. (All I wanted was coffee and I knew it would be available.) This guy was upset and quite rude to the staff - demanding to see the supervisor! Although it was completely this guy's fault for not arriving on time, the staff (Brenda and Ashley) were nothing be kind. The manager (gosh, cannot remember her name) handled the situation with calm. (I could never do her job.) In the end, he left satisfied with the solution, and we made it a point to compliment them on how they handled such a distressfully rude guest. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
