I stayed here with my parents and this place was amazing. My mother is in a wheelchair with MS and my father is also handicapped. The rooms were more than accomodating and the staff was amazing. I would recommend this hotel anytime you travel through Gainesville. Everything was clean and comfortable. We LOVED it!!!
