Room at the Inn
In an extraordinarily busy weekend, where the entire city of Gainesville was booked, I was able to get this hotel for a few days. And a very comfortable stay it was.

Far better than I would have expected a 2-star hotel to be. Very clean, very comfortable and even the breakfast was better than expected. Not a bad choice in Gainesville.
