Got there the morning of UF game and was told by an extremely rude Texas person (not sure what his job was) that we were not allowed in hotel as they had it reserved for the UT football team. Never once told by employees the day prior that we would not be allowed in until after 3(I had called to ask about early check in). Also, water in room never got more than lukewarm in both shower and sink. Property itself was quiet and breakfast was good.

Every single staff member we spoke with or had any interaction with was friendly, kind, and helpful. They were quick with extra-anything we needed. We appreciated the option to reduce our carbon footprint with less room cleaning during our stay, and the front desk was always happy to give us extra towels, as needed. The building was clean and comfortable. The rooms were clean. 100% would stay here again.
