"My boyfriend and I really enjoyed staying here with our dog! The neighborhood is nice and walkable, the unit was clean and had everything we needed. As a matter of information, I did not see a place where we could control the temperature, but it was very comfortable while we were here. The shower is also quite small, but there were toiletries provided and that was nice. We were close everything we could want and a short drive from downtown. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe. We will...

Super 8 by Wyndham Gainesville I-75 Hospital University Area

10/10 Excellent
"Clean and spacious room. Very nice staff. Parking was close to a entrance that was closer to our room than the main entrance. Price was great. Breakfast had a decent variety, too. We got there about a half hour before check-in, but they had our room available so that was a small added bonus. Location was right off the interstate, which made it super convenient! A++"
