Nice hotel, facility and staff. They charged me for valet fees every day that I stayed in the hotel, even though I never even used the valet. They also NEVER came to clean our rooms!!

Clean, well appointed, friendly and quick check in and valet parking.
I enjoyed our stay, there are plenty of places to eat around, grocery store within walking distance. In this occasion we chose to stay again in this hotel because were going to a volleyball game at FAU, which the stadium is walking distance from AC Hotel, works perfect! Only thing we don’t like is that is only ballet parking but at least they have the option to help parking your car for a fee ☺️ so that is fine.
Love the property but find it inconvenient that rooms do not have microwave inside and its not the first time that we stay at this hotel and ice machines on floor are not functioning.
Great hotel - best Gainesville option if you want to be in a great location. Would be nice if the lobby didn't blast music at 7am for those of us who want to head down and work and have breakfast. Maybe a little quieter or maybe wait til 9am?. It's not the One Hotel in South Beach.
My air conditioning stopped working during my final night (in hot, humid Florida in the middle of July) so that was rough but otherwise it was a good stay
