My daughter and I stayed at the Courtyard earlier this week to attend to some personal business. We were greeted by Kayla upon checking in, and she was extremely pleasant and very helpful. The lobby, eating areas, and the room was spotless. We checked out the next day and were attended to once again by Kayla. After checking out and... More

We had to book this hotel at the last minute. Being that Gainesville is a college town I really wasn't sure what I was getting myself into. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. The Asst. GM was working the desk and she was as nice as could be. She checked me right in. My room was not fancy, pretty... More

Good thing I bring my Bose noise reduction headset with me on trips our I would not have gotten any sleep. The walls of this Courtyard are so thin I could hear every word the guest on either side were saying. Very disappointed given this is a Courtyard. The property is very old and Marriott should level it and build... More

Easy access to I-75 and to Archer Road the main road to the University of Florida. Check in was very smooth and the receptionist (very friendly)already had our reservation printed out, and had a welcome bag with water and maps ready for us. The room was a two-doubles (family of 4) and easily fit the roll-a-way that we asked for.... More

My wife and I discovered Marriott Courtyards in the 80s -- at the Windy Hill exit just north of Atlanta. In those days, they were nice little hotels built often in industrial or business "parks," and business people paid a premium during the week, but pleasure travelers got good discounts on weekends. We stayed in a lot of them. Nice... More

Alas, we are very sorry for your not so great experience at our hotel in Gainesville. We had an unexpected amount of highschool basketball kids in our hotel during your stay. We have resolved this issue for the future. In December we are starting our new lobby Bistro renovation which will solve a lot of our breakfast issues. Also the... More

Centrally located....close to everything(walking distance). Just stayed one night, visiting daughter at UF. Comfy bed, Wireless worked fine, parking wide open. The hotel wasn't that busy. I would stay here again. Friendly staff. Dinner at Satchel's Pizza, live band, good food. Breakfast at 43rd Street Deli & Breakfast--Mother's Day, fast service ...Really Good! More

For the fair price the facilities were very nice. The "business center" was basic but adequate. The service, especially that of Jesica at the front desk, was very friendly courteous More

My teenage daughter was invited to participate at a program at University of Florida. We decided to bring the whole family, children ages 15, 12, 10 and 1 with us. I called twice before our stay to confirm our room choice and to request a refrigerator. Both times the staff was very friendly and accomodating. We had a smooth check... More

I began to stay at the Courtyard in Gainesville, FL on June 4, 2010. Arriving at 11PM, and having work still to do, I attempted to use the internet. After an hour of non ability to use their internet (the ISP said that I had to deal with the slower than dial up), I needed to find another location for... More

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay at the Courtyard by Marriott Gainesville. It is understandable that slow Internet access can be frustrating, and we have looked into the issues surrounding this service issue and have resolved them. Of deeper concern to me are your allegations regarding mistreatment and racial slurs used against you by front desk staff.... More
