Okay. Staff very nice.
Pros:

Location. Very clean

Cons:

The pillows. Weird thermostat in the room. Also - I paid extra for a buffet breakfast and they did not have a buffet breakfast. They said it was due to low census.

Great stay and super friendly staff
Pros:

We stayed at this property during our family Fall Break trip and we had a great stay! We had driven almost 8 hours to get there and arrived pretty late. We stopped by the lobby bar and Arthur and Liam were really friendly and helpful, even though it was close to closing time. The next morning we had an amazing breakfast in the lobby restaurant and the food was delicious and Michele our server was very attentive and upbeat. The service at this hotel was fantastic and we will be back next time we visit Gainesville!

Another Tired Hilton
Pros:

You don’t stay here because you want to but because it is convenient for a university visit. The hotel is tired and begging for a renovation. Rooms are old and bleak. Bedding is poor. Simply put there is nothing pleasant about this hotel. One would be better served at a cheaper dump

Hilton close to UF campus
Pros:

Our stay at Hilton was average. The location was great and very close to the UF campus. The service was great. I feel the hotel is older. This is fine but I do feel the hotel needs some updates. Our room was comfortable and enough space but the bathroom needed some work. And I feel the bathroom could have been cleaner. Over all stay was fine.

Pros:

My room went 4 days without getting cleaned, or trash picked up, or towels replaced. I had to call and text to get service, and even then, my room wasn’t serviced until after 6pm. I initiated room cleaning at check-in, but that was ignored. And even after having to call and text, you would think my room would be cleaned the following day - NOPE. Hotel is also outdated. Phone app barely works with the locks. Everything but the lobby is old.
