Categories

Cleanliness
8.2
Mostly praised as clean in multiple reviews, though several notes of mold in showers and a musty room odor lowered this score.
Service
9.7
Consistently described as friendly and helpful (specific positive mentions: Tammi, Mr. Hudson, multiple staff compliments); one staff attitude complaint noted but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.5
Frequently cited as convenient and right off the highway and close to attractions (Ichetucknee State Park), a clear strength for most guests.
Room Quality
7.8
Mixed feedback: comfortable beds and large rooms reported, but issues include hard beds for some, noisy guests, running toilet, loud mini-fridge, unplugged clock, non-working bedroom TV and general dated/cheap facelift concerns.
Amenities
8
Breakfast buffet and coffee praised, but some amenity problems reported (broken waffle maker, no ice machine on second floor, intermittent TV/wifi issues, outlet/fridge problems).
Value for Money
8.4
Generally seen as good value by many reviewers and stated as 'great value' by several, though a few complaints about price increases for special events reduced this slightly.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast repeatedly described as plentiful, delicious, well-maintained and a highlight of the stay; one or two small issues (waffle maker broken) noted but overall very positive.
Overall Experience
8.2
Most guests said they'd stay again, called the stay pleasant or exceeded expectations; isolated negatives (noise, some room issues, pricing) temper an otherwise strong overall impression.

Pros:

The location it was close to where I needed to be at

Cons:

One of the staff members kept complaining about hand bath towels, and I asked her because it was only one and I had me and my son there and she kind of kept talking about it. I heard it more than one day and I didn’t like I just didn’t like her attitude.

Not the best
Pros:

We liked the king bed. The man that checked us in was very nice.

Cons:

We didn't like that the remote for the TV in the sitting area didn't work right. The volume would go up and down on its own. We didn't like that the bedside clock was unplugged and we could not set the time. We especially didn't like that the TV in the bedroom was not hooked up..no service. VERY bad 👎 after hours of driving.
