Wonderful stay! Room very nice and the bathroom very clean. Close to UF. The food in the restaurant was delicious. The only thing that I would comment on is the ceiling in our room did not look like they finished the drywall. Not sure if all rooms are like that or if it was just ours. I would definitely stay here again, regardless of that one negative.

Hotel is located at walking distance to UF hospital. Our room was very spacious with two queen beds. Room air conditioning was very quiet and helped us to have very tranquil nights. I enjoyed breakfast and dinner at the hotel near the pond and found it very tasty and priced reasonably. I loved the free valet parking. Overall very happy with my stay and hope to return one day.

Terrific hotel.

Everyone was very pleasant & helpful. Just had a hard time figuring out coffee maker. The hotel transport to & from Shands was very helpful. Again, I must emphasis the staff was wonderful.
