I stayed here with a colleague while traveling for business. We had not made a reservation or read reviews prior to pulling off of I-75 and checking in. There is some road construction which made getting to the hotel a bit confusing at first, but due to the detour we discovered a back way from the hotel to nearby shopping... More

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The front desk clerk, Milan, was very helpful. He was very knowledgeable about the area and obviously well trained. We were here for a visit to the hospital and found this hotel very convenient. The hotel itself was clean and comfortable. The price was reasonable and again the staff was great. More

Check-in went well with very friendly employees. They have fresh baked cookies around dinner, but three times I went the plate was empty. Bringing luggage in is somewhat a challenge for those with rooms on the ends because of the way parking is laid out. The two end entrances are open to card holders, but don't have formal sidewalks up... More

Breakfast is above most breakfasts with a lot of variety. Good location. If you are a light sleeper, ask to have a room in the... More

This is an older building, that can use some TLC. The lights were dim in the room, along with dark blanket and comforter. I like white covers in hotels so i can see that it is clean. There were dirty smudges on the wall by the bed, along with mysterious red smears on the ceiling in the bathroom. The water... More

My wife and I stayed at the Gainesville Comfort Inn after a University of Florida football game. The hotel is just off I-75 and close to restaurants, shops and the university. There was some road construction that made getting to the hotel harder but not too much of an inconvience. This is a newer hotel in a safe area of... More
