Hotels near Department of Microbiology and Cell Science, Gainesville

We are not only Diamond members but also frequent guests at this particular Hilton. There was an issue with our AC leaking and we tried to reach out to the front desk staff. When they told us it was fixed but wasn’t, Danielle took the issue into her own hands. Kindly moved us to a new room close by and personally made sure we were taken care of. Thank you Danielle again for making sure, in these uncertain times, your guests were personally handled and your follow up was exemplary!! For those higher-ups, Danielle is a total asset to the Hilton team!! Because of employees like her, we will be back!

Mr. Leon Ford and Paula honestly were amazing. We booked our stay on Expedia and had accidentally put our stay for the wrong date. After staying on the phone with Expedia for over an hour, we had come to the lobby for help. They immediately were on the phone helping us. We were able to get our room for the night. They were so awesome and eager to help. This is by far the best staff I’ve come into with red roof and will be booking again with them as we come to this area every couple of weeks. Our check out experience was lovely and easy. Leon was super helpful and really all around an awesome person. I hope these 2 are recognized for their outstanding jobs and personality’s. Great job as a manager, in my opinion having staff like this makes the experience a great one! THANK YOU!

Less than 20 minutes drive from GNV Airport, call the front desk one day in advance to make an appointment for free pick-up service. And to make an appointment in advance, the hotel can also send to UF, which is very convenient for people who visit Gainesville for the first time. In addition, there are 13 buses at the door to UF. The lobby is spacious, the front desk is nice, there is free ice water and coffee. There are also computers and printers that can be used for free. There is a pool outside. The room is spacious enough, with a couch, small refrigerator, small vault and iron. The mattress is soft and the sheets are comfortable. There are small bottles of shampoo conditioner and soap, and the whole is clean. You need to bring your own slippers and dental appliances. Breakfast has homemade waffles, bread egg bacon, orange juice yogurt and low-fat milk. There is also an unknown paste that tastes good. The hotel goes out and turns left and walks 6-7 minutes across the road. There is a delicious Korean food Seoul POCHA. Go out and turn right and walk 3-4 minutes across the road. There is a Mexican food and a small supermarket. Walk straight along the road for 10 minutes and there is a drugstore. The accommodation experience is comfortable and can be recommended.

We were very tired after driving for 2 days and decided to stay an extra night in Gainesville. We saw your hotel and decided to try it. We were very pleased by everything. The staff were so courteous and nice - the room was very nice with great amenities - and the breakfast was outstanding! Cereal and yogurt are usually my favs, but the biscuits and gravy, eggs and sausage caught my attention. Delicious! There was yummy blueberry muffins and coffee to top off breakfast. What a treat! We would definitely stay with you again! I've also been telling our friends how wonderful HOM is!

We learned about Drury Inns from a customer of ours. She raved and raved so we had to give it a try. We had a trip planned and needed a half-way point to stay at. Location was right off of I75 so very convenient. The lobby was immaculate and the front desk people were super nice and helpful. We got there right when the dinner/happy hour was starting and were very pleased with that as well! Lots of great choices at breakfast too! The room we stayed in was immaculate and the beds were super comfy. Tried to book a room for another trip yesterday but, sadly, they were full and we had to stay at another place.

This hotel has two amazing employees, the first is Shirley who is the breakfast attendant and is the warmest caring person you could possibly want in that position and she cooks an awesome breakfast. The other is Manuel at the front desk who is the most genuine employee I have ever met at a Marriott property. It was truly a pleasure dealing with these two amazing people this past weekend.

I wish I had read some of the recent reviews of this hotel before I had checked in. True, this hotel is under construction and I understand that and have no issue with it. It's the way the hotel is presented on both the Marriott and the Trip Advisor website versus the reality of the dank, dark and musty rooms and the poor customer service that's so disappointing. You can fix the rooms with renovation, but you can't fix attitude with one. When getting to the front desk, no greeting, no smile, just ”last name”? Handed me my key and that was that. As a Lifetime Titanium Elite, I would have at least expected how I would like my bonus points to be be used. Not the end of the world. I asked directions to my room and she pointed and said without looking up, ”Down that hall”. Nothing else was offered or said. Again, not the end of the world, but then when you go to your room and it's so terribly dated with an odor, it all adds up. This place has a long.long way to go to measure up to the standard I've become used to in the majority of Marriott properties. And now that I have read the recent reviews of this property, before the GM responds with the sorry for the issues but the renovation will solve the problem, I'm noy buying it.

Hotel is located in Gainesville old downtown, surrounded by many bars, restaurants and coffee shops. Parking is either free at close by parking garage or valet. We used valet for convenience. Bed was surprisingly comfortable with high quality bedsheets. Breakfast offers full range of warm and cold items. Overall, we would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is located in the new sub-center of the city, which is very new soon after opening. The room is large and the bathroom is large. The room is equipped with a refrigerator. The front desk and room service are quite satisfactory and the service staff is very good. The decoration style in the room is modern. Health is great. Wifi signal is strong and fast. The surrounding environment is good. The student graduation season, the price of the hotel near the school has risen a lot, this hotel is in a reasonable range, is my main consideration for choosing it.

Prior to arriving at this beautiful hotel I spoke with the manager Travis, without hesitation he agreed to hold my son’s packages for his dorm until we arrived. The hotel is GORGEOUS. All the staff is friendly and appears to love working there. Travis thank you so much for taking care of my family and all the other gator families at the hotel. Because of your generosity and dedication to us we will be staying here the next 4 years. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed a hotel stay like this in years. Kudos Fairfield. Lisa Gold
