When I checked into the hotel it was slow and once I tried my key it did not work. My room had a foul smell to it. And every day I had to get my key re aligned. I would never recommend or stay in this again.

When staying in Gainesville for the old Florida vibe, it was refreshing to stay at the Gator Town Inn. It is an older Inn but it was very clean, safe and comfortable for a quick stay.
