Smaller motel but easy access to UF, downtown, airport, and interstate. Modest room with smallish but clean bathroom. My room was a king bed with fridge and microwave. Very reasonable and quiet.

This property was unique in that you could check in at any time you wanted. There wasn’t a rule about not being able to check in until 3-4pm like at most hotels. The room was very nice and spacious. The hotel was close to everything I needed. It was a pleasant experience and I’d stay there again.

This motel was very convenient to my meeting at the University of Florida. Check in very easy with friendly staff. I felt the breakfast was on the lower end of the spectrum compared to other motels offering free breakfast. I would stay there again.

Pictures seriously over inflated look of room. But it was a cheap room and clean, so I was happy. Check in guy made me feel like I was annoying him when I was checking in. Probably not the best way to treat a customer. At least pretend you enjoy the job.

Property has been updated inside. I was given a handicapped room so I can’t state if my room was typical or not. The bathroom looks really nice and modern. The room was very clean “smelling”. It smelled so clean that I could still smell the cleaning products the day after I got home through my cPap machine. There was a small refrigerator in the room. The freezer door could not close all the way. So it had a large frost buildup and was obviously wasting electricity and also useless for a guest who needed to keep things frozen. The continental breakfast didn’t begin until 7am and I had to leave before that time. Breakfasts, especially just “continental” ones usually start at 6am at most places I’ve stayed. All in all, the room was a good value, comfortable, large, clean, and I would stay there again at the current price point.

Great stay for those on a budget, the room was very clean and modern. The washroom had nice granite counters, the sheets were clean with no rips or burn holes, no bugs, the internet worked well, and the facility was quiet (that's a feature worth mentioning in a college town). There was a used bottle of Oil of Olay in the shower that I'm guessing wasn't a standard amenity (the hotel-provided soaps were a different brand), but other than that everything was very clean and well maintained (and seriously, anyone who would take issue with that extremely minor imperfection should consider paying a little more for high class hotel like Marriott or Hilton). I was glad to see a Gideon bible in the drawer too, I always look for those when I stay in a motel.

This is an older facility but very well kept. The room was clean. We had both a fridge and microwave which was a very nice convenience. The bed was comfortable. The room price was very reasonable. The pool looked nice, although we did not use it. The only negative thing I can think of was the parking situation. There were enough spaces but vehicles were very close to each other so you have to be extra cautious and aware of other vehicles when parking and leaving. I plan to return to this motel when in the area for an extended stay.
