La Quinta by Wyndham Gainesville

8/10 Good
"I contacted the property the first part of September explain the situation that my company was closing my location, and I was looking for reduced rates on a long-term basis as any apartments I looked at were not able to get me in till October 1st. The general manager, Chris, responded to me and asked what specific dates. I informed them that I was already in their hotel for approximately the previous three or four nights. I never heard anything back, last week when I was i checking in. The manager happened to be the one behind the desk. I asked whatever happened. You know is it something that they couldn't do or what? And he passed the buck and said that he had asked his sales manager to contact me, which never happened. Overall I like the hotel and the staff. But I spent a small fortune at your hotel during that time frame overall it was a pleasant experience"
