PROS The 4th floor was quiet ... room was clean ... a little dusty ... able to walk to nearby restaurants ... breakfast tastes good and fresh fruit available (should melt butter so it could easily spread on waffles); one waffle maker didn't work, the muffin-type did work ... refrigerator didn't have a freezer but worked ... microwave worked ... a/c not too loud in this particular room ... convenient to quickly travel to other areas of the town ... easy parking CONS Safety concerns since anyone could get on the elevator without an access card ... didn't have enough towels etc in room as requested for two-day stay ... have to actually search channels since there is not a guide on the tv (given a paper with channels listed, but you have to request it)

Discomfort Suites
I literally paid more when selecting this hotel because I thought it was better. When waiting to check in, another customer grabbed beer from the nearby fridge and cut right in front of me - check thw camera. The front desk attendant helped that customer before me. When checking out, I had to wash up and brush my teeth practically in the dark since the power was out for hours. We spent 5 minutes trying to figure out what was going on and other guest's kids were literally screaming in the halls for at least an hour. At check out, the next front desk attendant said she'd send me a receipt via email when the power came back on. I still haven't received the email and that was over 24 hours ago. There wasn't very much "comfort" at Comfort Suites as the name suggests.

Power went out, which was not a big problem, except for all the billing was wrong and the customer service center will not help me fix it They are blaming it on Expedia even though my booking was done to pay at the hotel. The customer service center does not understand the customer and does not listen to the problem simply told me they could not help me.

Great Hotel
Second time at this hotel - 2 years apart. Clean, efficient, comfortable and large room. Hotel visit was great and breakfast is very good. Only issue - billing - ordered the room thru One Key / Hotels.com and paid in full with a combination of points and money. After checking out a pending charge for the entire amount is shown on my credit card after one week. Will dispute the charge. Otherwise an excellent hotel stay.

This is my 3rd or 4th time staying at this hotel. It has now become my go-to hotel everytime I am in Gainesville. The hotel is clean, the beds are comfortable, parking lot is well lighted and safe. The breakfast is always good and filling. I will always look for openings at this hotel first when there.
