Alachua County Hotels with Wi-Fi

Internet problems were unacceptable! Unreliable internet! Neither bedside lamp worked. Plugs next to beds were so tired/loose that cell phone chargers would not work on one side of the bed and had to be plugged in across the room (not unusual for built-in outlets in headboards in hotels, sadly). To call these ”suites” while possibly legally accurate, seemed quite an exaggeration in my humble opinion - yes, they included a microwave, fridge, silverware, dishes, and a two-burner stove installed in the very same hallway entry area of any typical (smaller) hotel room -- but no extra sitting area that you would expect of a ”suite” designation or as is common in a Home2 Suites hotel (think typical hotel room with 4-foot counter-top-area wth kitchen cabinets for dishes, stove, a 5-foot tall junior-sized fridge), installed in any hotel room you've ever stayed in before. If you don't ask for housekeeping BEFORE 9 a.m., they refuse to provide it that day! Seemed arbitrary. Similarly, Breakfast is from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. hard stop. .The staff was generally disinterested, dismissive, and unhelpful (with a few exceptions). I asked a housekeeper for something small, and the response was: ”no.” Surprising response in a Marriott. I write these reviews more for myself so I know which hotels I've stayed at in an area and which ones to avoid in the future. I will not stay at this property again -- there are many lower-priced options in the area, and this was the MOST expensive hotel of them all. I expected more from a Marriott, and certainly from the most expensive hotel in the area -- which was why I chose it, hoping for an ”elevated” experience on a two-day trip with family.

We are not only Diamond members but also frequent guests at this particular Hilton. There was an issue with our AC leaking and we tried to reach out to the front desk staff. When they told us it was fixed but wasn’t, Danielle took the issue into her own hands. Kindly moved us to a new room close by and personally made sure we were taken care of. Thank you Danielle again for making sure, in these uncertain times, your guests were personally handled and your follow up was exemplary!! For those higher-ups, Danielle is a total asset to the Hilton team!! Because of employees like her, we will be back!

This hotel has its okay aspects and its not so good aspects. First the good...The hotel is a bit older but has been somewhat renovated and is sufficient. The location is close to everything including I-75, and surprisingly quiet inspite of being close to the interstate. The beds were quite comfortable, and it was reasonably priced. The not so good... Digital key does not work, front desk staff was less than friendly, informative, or helpful (with the exception of Ami who was a friendly new hire), We stayed 2 days and there was no housekeeping for refreshing of clean towels. We were later told housekeeping had to be specifically requested but this was not mentioned at check in. When we requested new towels, we were asked to bring our dirty towels to the front desk to swap. Completely unacceptable and unsanitary! There were several hot options for breakfast and it was standard for Hampton. I will say this hotel is NOT a bad option but there are definitely BETTER options in Gainesville. I would only book again in a pinch!

There are two supermarkets such as target on the side of the hotel, including McDonald's, a Vietnamese restaurant and several American restaurants. Opposite the hotel is the school gate near the business school. The hotel is quite quiet and the stay is quite satisfactory. . . . . .

We were very tired after driving for 2 days and decided to stay an extra night in Gainesville. We saw your hotel and decided to try it. We were very pleased by everything. The staff were so courteous and nice - the room was very nice with great amenities - and the breakfast was outstanding! Cereal and yogurt are usually my favs, but the biscuits and gravy, eggs and sausage caught my attention. Delicious! There was yummy blueberry muffins and coffee to top off breakfast. What a treat! We would definitely stay with you again! I've also been telling our friends how wonderful HOM is!
