Love this place! (It was our first time staying here.) BW Waldo is very clean & had a very nice scent in the building as soon as I walked in. The king suite we had was very affordable & roomy & i loved the bathroom! I was greeted with a smile & the front desk clerk was very friendly & helpful. The Dunkin Donuts and Pilot travel center wwre both in walking distance so that was definitely a plus! It also was only 25 minutes from Gainesville so we weren't far from the stadium for the game and so many other things.

The tv was not working, pillows were small and didn’t even come close to being sufficient for a king bed. Laying all 4 end to end didn’t get from one side of the bed to the other.

Quiet 4th of July!
I wanted to get away from my apt to avoid 4th of July fireworks. This Best Western in Waldo is remote and was perfect for me and my dog.
