Just what we needed in an overnight stop on our travels. It appears well maintained for an older building and our room was clean. Happy with our stay and would stay there again.
Very nice rooms and staff always friendly and professional. We’ve stayed here several times on our travels to FL and back, and have a consistently enjoyable stay.. Great location and well maintained small hotel, unique compared to a large commercial chain hotel.
We have stayed here several times and the staff are always friendly and helpful. The hotel has an old fashioned charm, unlike the large chain hotels. The location is very convenient to downtown Gainesville and I-985 to Atlanta. When our grandchildren are with us, they love the pool.
The place is older but it was really clean and well maintained. We had a good experience there. It was a good value for the price. I do recommend. It is not fancy or updated but clean and safe. The door lock could feel more secure, which was the only I noticed that wasn’t wonderful.
Very friendly staff. Even though the buildings were old they had been refurbished and were very nice.
When I kneeled to change to a handicap room they did so immediately.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It was clean.....
Pros..... cost.. location... pool.. ice...
Cons... hair dryer caught fire, someone had smoked in the room (they did come spray with deoderizer since they where booked and couldnt swap rooms)
Breakfast was behind the counter and had to tell staff what you wanted....
My second stay was as great as my first stay here. Polite and accommodating staff. In need for a hotel stay in Gainesville? Come stay at The Guest Lodge
Great place for a bed and roof over your head. By no means bells and whistles, but for a quick place to lay your head, it was clean and staff was super polite.
