This hotel looks new and convenient to UF. We stayed on the 4th floor. Looks all new paint from hallway to the inside of room. But smell strong new painting. It bothers me to stay that room. I asked to change the room. They offered me a room cross of my room, which called “ Pure wellness room “, smells a lot of better. Because there is Pur filter in the room. But loudly at night. Plus I have to pay $40 more for this room. I didn’t sleep well for a night stay. I believe this hotel will be very nice if there is no smell of paint.

The property is very clean, and the staff is very nice. A few minor inconveniences.. There isn’t a place to eat in the room really as there isn’t a desk, which made it difficult for takeout. I also found that the shower, while very nice, didn’t have a place to put a shaver for example. The hallways to the rooms are very long due to the shape of the hotel itself. I would request to be closer to an elevator. The in room coffeemaker was fabulous. It was a Nespresso, which made fantastic coffee. A very nice bonus as most in room coffeemakers are just plain awful. The staff here is a 10 out of 10. Super nice and accommodating. I normally do not like valet parking, but the valet team were super fast, accommodating and super nice. Overall a pretty fantastic stay! I will definitely be back.
