It should be removed from the hosting list. Good attention at check in. Disappointment when arriving at the room, an invasion of cockroaches coming out of the floor carpet, torn sheets with cigarette burn holes. Dirty bathroom and in poor condition. Room with unpleasant smell. Old and dirty furniture, rusty lamps. Horrible sanitary conditions. We left the place and went to another hotel.

my husband and his friend were attending the Gainesville football game and they were very happy with the cleanliness and the friendliness of the staff attendant. We had booked a room at another hotel the night before and it was not up to par so I was able to book this one for them for the last night of their trip.

Room was very dirty definitely not being cleaned. We were in room 419. Mold smell was absolutely tremendous. We woke up early just so we could get out of there.. had no other choice to stay there. All other hotels were booked for the Morgan Wallen concert. We had booked this hotel in advance. Definitely will not be staying there again.

The room was horrible. It smelled awful. The refrigerator was very nasty. Was not clean at all. The bathroom was also nasty. I would like a full refund. I wouldn’t ever stay at this place and would not recommend no one else to. It is not sanitary at all. It smelt like someone just urinated in the room and just left it there for months.
