This is a typical hotel right off I-75. It’s easy and close to Gainsville things. The bed needs to be replaced but its good enough.

This is an affordable hotel, just off 1-75, offering a decent hot breakfast and clean, comfortable room. There is excellent shopping and plentiful dining options nearby. Not fancy, but with an early week booking discount, we found it good value and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.
