I am impressed by the cleanliness, and hospitality at this establishment. The standard room was large in size with 2 full size beds that were very comfortable, and a nice large desk. Plenty of room. The breakfast consisted of 2 cereals, juice, instant oatmeal, coffee with half and half, as well as milk. Also yummy waffles for you to make; fresh bananas, and oranges; boiled eggs and yogurt. We checked a lot of deals online and we felt we got a terrific price per night considering it was a college function. They have 2 suites in the front office area as well.
La Quinta Inn Gainesville served as the perfect choice for the parents of the bride and her wedding party to stay. The location is great being just a few seconds off the highway. The free breakfast was a great way to start a busy day for everyone. A nearby mall and lots of restaraunts covered our other needs through the weekend. Large clean rooms with a very fair price made this part of our wedding planning a great success.
Clean room, clean bathroom - excellent front desk service, the tv in our room wasn't working and we were immediately upgraded to a suite. Good restaurants in very close walking distance, across the street from a small lake-great for walking our dogs. Would stay here again.
Great staff, very friendly and attentive to customer satisfaction. Room was clean, breakfast was fresh and offered plenty of variety. I would absolutely stay again and highly recommend the hotel to all travelers... Amazing value for the price.
I went from Miami, with my daughter and her best friend to attend Santa Fe Zoo for shadowing. I was told La Quinta had good service and was close to the school. When we arrived pretty late, we were happily greeted by a young lady, who was extremely nice and outgoing. she processed us quickly and gave us our room keys. Also gave us a couple of suggestions for a quick dinner. The room smelled nice, the bathrrom was very clean, with extra towels, the tub was a little worn but very clean.
the next day, i needed directions and another young lady helped us out and even drew a little map for us. All and all it was a very peasant experience and since the girls were accepted into the Zoo program, we will be staying more frequently at La Quinta.
