"My husband was at Shand‘s for open-heart surgery. I am so happy that I found this Condo. It was perfect to go back-and-forth from the hospital as it is only about 5 to 7 minutes away. it was super clean, stocked nicely, and the washer and dryer made it perfect. The communication from the owner is great. All kinds of shopping and restaurants are within 5 to 10 minutes from the condo as well. I would highly recommend this for anyone going near Shands or UF."

Top North Central Florida Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Gainesville, FL

8/10 Good

"Got the job done"

Studio 6 Ocala, FL

10/10 Excellent

"My ac was drop water in room 137 other then that every was good"

Drury Inn & Suites Gainesville

8/10 Good

"Decent stay. Very quiet. Comfortable bed. Water pressure was so-so. The small fridge didn’t really cool our drinks & there was not a way to make it cooler. Worst part of stay was lack of vent in the bathroom. It made the floor slippery as there was nothing drawing out the steam. Bizarre."

Sleep Inn & Suites University/Shands

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Free Buffet breakfast was the best part with hot food like pancakes, eggs , sausage & gravy, grits. Not to mention continental breakfast, cereals, bread, etc, etc. Unlimited coffee, hot chocolate, variety of teas 24/7. Free cookies & popcorn too. 5-10 minutes to University of Florida. Close to Kahapana Botanical Gardens. Nearby shops, stores , shopping mall, restaurants. Exit near I-75. Highly recommended!"
