DoubleTree by Hilton Gainesville

This hotel did not meet all of my expectations. There is mold in a corner above a door that connects to the next room, small parts of the ceiling are cracked and peeling, we thought it may fall on us as we slept, and corners of the bathroom floor were dirty. The shower was not sparkling clean. There were dark spots on the shower tile the could be wiped off and the shower door frame had build up. We only needed the room to sleep as our event was early the following morning, we spent maybe 8 to 9 hours in the room. We got in late and didn't feel like asking for another room or getting someone in to look at our issues. I wish we had. The 2 employees at the front desk were wonderful. They were the best part of our stay. I believe if I had brought up the issue it would have been addressed quickly and to my satisfaction. My friend made fun of me for paying for a room at the Double Tree by Hilton and getting a Days Inn experience cleanliness wise. I would still give them a other try in the future.

they advertise free breakfast but that's not exactly true and kind of misleading in my opinion

Great location! Rainy, so not sure about pool

so clean we were visiting the campus and it was close to it plus restaurants and grocery stores.

It's nice and comfortable hotel. Few issues I had were 1) I had 2 nights reservations and paid everything at check in, however they asked me to pay again after the 1st night and changed the key. Also I was told "You can stay in a same room." It sounded strange to me. 2) Empty beer bottles were on a outside table for few days, it looked disgusting.
