Really beautiful grounds. Felt safe. Lots of pretty plant beds. Nice big airy breakfast area, nice families. Good food. No potatoes but they had scrambled eggs and sausage, also oramge juice, fresh fruit, and hardboiled eggs. Suite was huge and clean. Nice clean bathroom. Plenty of space. Only problem was the fridge made a terrible noise all night. But other than that, it was a wonderful hotel.

Great stay in Alachua.

Overall this facility exceeded our expectations. Firstly, everything was clean and orderly. Secondly, the employees were helpful and friendly. Lastly, we were able to bring our small dog and although pets are accepted, the facility does not have run down smell. The location is perfect with the Publix conveniently located next door.
