After a very cordial and welcoming check-in, found a clean, spacious room with a nice bathroom. Not luxury, but fine. It's located next to services such as a Walgreen's and a car wash, several restaurants. Only problem was tv reception, green and snowy. And it would help if hotels would give you the wi-fi code when you check in. The... More

I stayed here with some friends and paid a great overprice because of a game in town. Don´t know exactly how much they charge but I wouldn´t pay much. It looks very sad, inside and out, in boring surroundings, pool looks just awful. Beds are okay, make sure you go for a quick shower cause you just want to get... More

The whole property was ugly and rundown. The buidling was old and tired, the landscaping scraggly. The room was awful. It stank of mold combined with some kind of carpet powder. We made it a little better by running the AC at an uncomfortably cold level, but then it was unpleasantly chilly. The linens were so skimpy and cheap that... More

I normally wouldn't stay in a hotel with cheaper prices simply because they lack class and attract the undesirable. The structure is old and needs renovating. The bathtub finish was peeling. The bathtub rubber mat was permanently filthy and would not come clean. So I actually brought lysol and bleach to spray the room down because I literally felt sick.... More

Stayed at this place for a couple of days while working in Gainesville. Because I travel all the time my suitcase contained over $50 in loose change for laundry and the snack machine. I have stayed in hundreds of hotels across the southeast and this is the only time I have been robbed. My co-worker also had his cologne stolen.... More

The first thing my family wanted to see was the pool. It was clear that routine maintenance was not being performed. There was a thick layer of flocculated sediment on the bottom and debris all over. The assigned room 107 disgustingly reeked of urine and the bathtub looked old and dirty. The front desk attendant was kind enough to offer... More

Thanks to this Econolodge our travel day ended much better than we thought. We had reservations at the Newberry Inn to stay the night on our trip to Disney World.

The rooms were very clean, the front desk agent was great, and they had everything they promised. Completely opposite of the Clarion. I will definitely be returning, this time I'll book with this hotel. More

We traveled to Gainesville to attend our nephew's graduation. We had planned a family reunion of sorts and had reserved our rooms about 10 months prior. We got a great deal and were so excited. We told all of our family to book at the Clarion so we could all be together. Well, the Clarion "lost" 4 of the 10... More
