Reviews for Americas Best Value Inn - I-75 Gainesville North

Review 1:Everything. There was no toilet tissue when we arrived. No towels. We had to go buy our own remote for their tv that was at least 25 years old. There was only 1 sheer curtain over the window and the only light in the room was a floor lamp by the door. NEVER AGAIN!! If I could SAVE the WORLD from this hotel I WOULD!! DON'T BOOK HERE

Review 2:Absolutely Nothing!

Review 3:Dirty and so run down. Towels were thin rags. I would never refer anyone. How do they remain open. Doesn't the State inspect hotels? Same on whoever owns the place. They should try and stay a night.

Review 4:Nothing

Review 5:First room didn't have electricity. Changed to a new room and the shower had pubic hair on the walls and when you take a shower water doesn't drain and puddles are left outside the tub. When I asked for pillows because there was 4 of us the people working told me he couldn't give me any pillows. The beds weren't that comfortable.

Review 6:The sheets were clean and it was close to where we were going.

Review 7:We had cockroaches in the bed, in the fridge in the shower. Shower was filthy, none of us were desperate enough to shower in there. Cigarette burns in the carpet. Looked really outdated, could do with a refurbishment. Girl at the check in was really great and friendly. But Different member of staff when we complained about the condition just shrugged her shoulders.. To be honest I would rather sleep in the car than stay here again.

Review 8:I guess it was cheap, and close to the highway.

Review 9:Door locks didn't work, roaches everywhere, filthy, terrible staff, no towels available, absolutely worst hotel I've ever stayed in.

Review 10:Near UF campus and stuff to do

Review 11:The whole place is very disgusting. The rooms are very dirty, we have aservice dog, and even the dog was sniffing and uncomfortable all thetime, the shower and sink very very old and with scratches all around.They definitely need to go on black friday shopping to get at least a 32inch screen new tv. The have the oldest tv you can imaging. Everythingis old and dirty in that place, I will never ever stay in that hotel,not even for free.

Review 12:Nothing. Unfortunately there were no rooms available anywhere.

Review 13:Advertised WiFi but never worked Stayed for three days but room was never cleaned. Electronic key had to be reprogramed every day. Old CRT type TV. Had to go to front office to get clean towels. Carpet was dirty. Did not feel safe in hotel.

Review 14:Price. AC worked fine. Refrig worked fine.

Review 15:we couldn't get a ground floor room.

Review 16:The beds (ours was a king) were sooo comfy.The rooms were very clean, the staff was wonderful. Very close to the locations we needed to visit.Resturants surrounded us. Very quiet ! Not a luxurious place, but for the price you couldn't beat it. We were very happy !

Review 17:Had to wait and listen to clerk give another guest a hard time about his reservation. Then i get to my room, and it was nasty, as was the whole hotel.

Review 18:The room was dirty,spiders webs,the door had a big gape at the bottom had to stuff towels in the holes so nothing wouldn't crawl in.other attendants was outside all time of the night.very bad was afraid to go to sleep.

Review 19:There were holes in the wall. The bathroom door was broken wouldn't budge. There were excretions all over the bed and room. Do not stay here

Review 20:Nothing this was the worst place I have ever stayed at. The room looked like a room they used for horror films. There were excretions everywhere.

Review 21:The room was probably the worse hotel/motel room I have ever stayed in. The lock on the door was almost completely broken. We had a very difficult time getting in our room. Some of the outlets were not working, therefor we were not able to use the lamp next to the bed. There was a towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door that I am almost positive was left from the last quest. The bathroom was in very poor condition. I would never stay there again unless it was completely refurbished.

Review 22:The staff was friendly.

Review 23:Someone opened my door in the middle of the night. I don't know if that was a mistake. Either way, no one should have access to my room in the middle of the night. Also, no continental breakfast

Review 24:Friendly staff, not bad for the price

Review 25:the room didnt have an iron in it the ironing broad was old the door was NASTY needed painted the bed wasnt comfort at all the grounds was a HOT MESS never will i stay ago

Review 26:the sraff was ok

Review 27:Stains of the sheets and pillow cases. Dust on everything and the mattress was horrible. I also woke up with a weird but on my leg. I'll never come here again.

Review 28:Please do not ever advertise this facility again! The place is atrociousand borderline condemnable. No human should ever pay for a place likethis, like ever! I was traveling with an 84 year old parent who neededrest and there was nowhere else to go. The room was disgusting, wallswere filthy, carpet was gross, accumulated trash behind night stand andtons of shady characters hanging around the outside. The ad shows a nicewood floor room, with a beautiful bed and fancy room but that is a hookto get you there. Once there you will see one room that has wood panelwindows but your room, for $59 will be nothing like that. I havepictures to prove this all my claims here. Oh, and let me mention thestains on the wall and cockroaches on the bathroom floor. The peoplethat run it are all tattooed and scary looking my elderly mother wasscared if I complained. There were no other rooms available due to ufstudents checking in to dorms. Please don't go here. Pay the extraand go elsewhere. Trust me. Only given option to add 3 photos so sorry Icouldn't show you more.

Review 31:I like your price of the rooms only

Review 32:Pictures are deceiving, requested a king room non smoking with a view.Got a room with no king bed or view and it smelled like an ashtray. Wentback to reception and said there must be a mistake I requested a nonsmoking room with a king bed. She said " we ran out, I can give youa double." Went to the room, it was occupied, returned to thereception and informed her the room was already occupied; she gave usanother room... Tv didn't work. My husband went back and informedher of this and they sent the maintenance guy over. Very upset, bedsuncomfortable. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Review 33:Wait when checking in. No phone or table in room. Freezer needed defrosting. Towel service uneven.

Review 34:Manager's attitude, large pool, beds comfortable, location. We stayed 5 nights.

Review 40:Right off the bat, light in bathroom wasn't working. took more than 2 hrs to get it fixes ( bulb) Then shortage of towels, soap bars, no laundry bag. hair dryer had a film on handle. Beds were terrible, pillows were old and deformed, bed frame was sticking out

Review 41:Location was close to UF and places to eat

Review 42:The sheets on the bed had a stain on it. Since there were NO phones in the rooms I had to walk back to the front desk to let them know. We had two rooms, one smelled very musty, when we asked to change the room, they we full and could not help us. Their computer system was down, so no receipt at check out.

Review 43:room was not cleen,the person at the desk didn t know what he was doing!!!I did not get a room with 2 beds liked I asked for,i got only I bed,and people came in our room when we were sleeping!!!!!!

Review 44:The rooms was nasty! ! I booked two rooms 3 months ahead when we got there they said they didn't have the rooms we booked but they had other room they let me get well being on the road and everything booked I had no choice they was hair and cigarette ashes

Review 45:Terrible for the price! Rooms outdated. TV sound did not work. Door locks did not work properly. Found a needle in one of the rooms, unsafe! No breakfast as stated and no wifi. But did the job for a quick one night stay.

Review 46:When I arrived after a late flight, with reservation in hand, I was told there were no rooms - all full - my reservation was useless!! Couldn't believe it - horrible experience!!!

Review 47:Didn't have the type of room i reserved when we arrived. Toilet didn't work. No lights in room were pluged in I had to fumble around In the dark and plug in. Bathroom smelled bad of mold. Safty door locks were broken. Carpeting was damp and smelly. Curtains wouldnt close. Sign to find the place was gone so you didn't know how to get there. Glad I only had to spent 7 hours there!

Review 48:N O T H I N G.

Review 49:Noisy - little sound-proofing to the outdoor walkway. Loud people in the hallway - rowdy - most of Saturday night

Review 50:Inexpensive and convenient to the interstate and university

Review 51:The WiFi had a weak signal. The plastic TV guide was worn, you couldn't read what channel had what clearly. There was no breakfast, the pastries were all gone.

Review 52:The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The front desk person knew where the stores were and she gave excellent directions.

Review 53:TV broke, a/c very very noisey, kept us awake. Location was where we wanted. We will never stay there again.

Review 54:Good price and location. Very thing else was hell.

Review 55:Rooms are in desperate need of updating,and the floor didn't look like it had been vacuumed in a week. Our non-smoking room had the distinct aroma of an ash tray.

Review 56:Very pleasant staff and close to shopping and restaurants. the price was about right for the age and amenities of the hotel.

Review 57:They put me in a room that wasn't clean then room I moved in the lights didnt work only the lap. It didn't smell good I went and bought plug-ins for the room.

Review 58:The guy at the front desk was nice

Review 59:Left a pillow on the bed and they didn't make up the bed. Won't make the bed if anything left on it. Took the extra towels and didn't leave extra and none was available later in evening.

Review 60:No phone in room nothing worked maybe you get clean towels no coffee maker no glasses or cups never vacumed no microwave towel racks broke off wall paint peeling off ceiling

Review 61:Nice lady at desk Samone

Review 62:Rooms were not made, towels were not replaced. We had to go to k-mart to buy our own towels. Carpet was stained horribly. Staff was rude except for young man at desk.

Review 63:Was a cheap place to stay. And, I do mean cheap. You get what you pay for!

Review 64:Had to go buy our own towels because they ran out but sent maids home, rude older man and young girl, door lock duct taped, drug deal in parking lot, dimly lit, exposed wires in room, musty smell, friend's room not cleaned.

Review 65:The only positive thing was the price. It was a last minute trip and I needed something cheap. BEWARE...you absolutely get what you pay for!

Review 66:We checked in at 10pm. Nice staff and quick to get our room. However, around 12am, after we were asleep, there was a banging on the door. A staff member then unlocked the door and tried to enter the room. He was quickly remiss and apologized...but my girlfriend was certain she was about to be "murdered"...needless to say it was scary for her. Oh, and two cockaroaches were found under our bags the next morning. So if you don't mind that stuff, it's not a bad place for the price.

Review 67:Price was good compared to hotels around it

Review 68:it's a flea bag motel...patronized by dubipus characters run by barely competent staff and booked by a misleading organization.

Review 69:I only had to stay one night

Review 70:Spit or snot maybe even some other foreign substance on bathroom walls and floors. Blood stains on pillows. Stains on floors. Cracks in drywall, lavatory about to fall off wall. Texture on drywall falling or hanging off ceiling.

Review 71:Sign and turn in not very visible ....had to make a couple of turn around to locate entrance...breakfast was remove before you get to it....workers banging on doors two minutes checkout and dont speak any english

Review 72:Location is perfect

Review 73:The did not have a telephone, clothes hangers, the entrance door had a 2 inch crack at the bottom of the door, toilet over-flowed while away from the room, face towels first night were absolutely horrible (stained not fit for human use). Check out at approximately 4:20 a.m. on January 4th due to occupants in the room next door.

Review 74:The location was excellent

Review 75:checked in and the first room we were given we would have had to walk down a hill with no steps to get to the room.(we are in our late 60's) I went back and told them that this was unacceptable and they gave us another room that supposedly was just remodeled but it was a disaster. There was no a phone to call the front desk. One of the double beds was so saggy that the sheet kept pooping off the side. The bathroom floor had black mold in the corners. The desk clerk just said that when the next door property starting building they cut the phone lines. Even with the internet low rate of $40 it was not worth the price. My suggestion is to upgrade!

Review 76:Old and run-down. Our room had a big chunk of ceiling texture missing/hanging down. Lots of construction work in surrounding properties. The "free breakfast" was a pot of coffee and some little debbie fudge bars, most of which were already opened.

Review 77:Low priced and close to highway

Review 81:It was the worst experience in our life! To much dirty, smells bad, we have scared about the lines, everything was more than bad, we have like nighmare !

Review 82:The bed was so hard it felt as though we were laying on the ground. The pillows were terrible as well (thank goodness we always travel with our own)!!!

Review 83:Ease of location (we didn't have to travel very far to get where we needed to go...we didn't get lost one single time...which is a miracle)!!! Average room cleanliness -wasn't too bad that we weren't discouraged to stay there.

Review 84:Room looked very dirty. Cigarette burns on all surfaces in both rooms(both non smoking) we used and one I turned down. Strangely, even burns in the shower? Had to plug in lights myself. One remote didn't work.

Review 85:This hotel is so very old and dingy. It appears that people are actually living in some of the rooms. We did not even stay there even though we had paid for the room. We found other arrangements. I would NOT recommend this hotel.

Review 86:I liked that this hotel did not require a 2 night minimum stay during a special event weekend (football game) in Gainesville, Florida

Review 87:The door handle shocked us multiple times. The room smelled horrible. The room was dirty and so was the restroom. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. They didn't even know the Wi-Fi password. The television was as old as I am. Only thing good about our stay was the chicken wings from California Chicken Grill.

Review 88:Nothing.

Review 89:The housekeeping staff was extremely rude. Worst that I've ever experienced.

Review 90:The front desk staff was nice. He was an older gentlemen and was very friendly.

Review 91:The room reeked of smoke and we were supposed to have a non-smoking room. The bed is way over due to be changed out as the springs no longer hold any weight (the bed was visibly curved before you ever sat on it).

Review 92:It was close to Oaks Mall where we park to take the bus to the stadium.

Review 93:Hard to find turn off to hotel. In need of maintenance, some things did not work upon our arrival.
