Staybridge Suites Gainesville I-75 by IHG

8/10 Good

"I like the atmosphere and the availability of breakfast. The quality of the food was marginal, so I didn't eat anything that was cooked. The cereal dispenser did not work properly and made a mess because someone crammed the cereal in which interfered with the proper operation. The desk in my room 376 WAS wobbly and needed repair or replacement."

Courtyard by Marriott Gainesville FL

10/10 Excellent

"yes"

WoodSpring Suites Gainesville I-75

8/10 Good

"I have stayed in several Woodspring Suites and always satisfied. I don’t need fancy, just need clean and safe. The mattress in my room might need to be changed. The room was a single and I think the bed was a full or double, wasn’t a queen. The mattress was a little more “worn” on the side by the bedside table. The other side remained more firm. Otherwise, no complaints. Front desk was always pleasant and helpful."
