This is one of the nicest hotels to stay at in Gainesville and we enjoyed it. The hotel is quiet, clean, and friendly. The breakfast was beyond delicious. My husband and I ordered the cinnamon roll and the avocado toast and they were soooo good! The hotel has l'occitane brand creams, soaps, shampoos and conditioners and that was super luxe. They even have a sound machine in the room.

I travel regularly in the USA and Internationally. I cannot think of another receptionist as engaging and polite as the one here. Who ever hired her should know that she is extraordinary. Everyone who meets her already knows.
