2/10
We recently drove to Gainesville and had a reservation at this hotel. I left my wife and kids in the car while I went inside to check in. The front desk staff was polite, and I was given our room keys without issue. After grabbing our bags, we took the elevator up to the second floor.
As soon as we stepped out, I noticed the hallway walls had multiple holes—possibly from ongoing renovations. When we reached our room, I tapped the key card, got the green light, but the door wouldn’t open. It finally budged after I applied heavy pressure, which seemed odd.
Once inside, the room was completely dark. I reached for the light switch and found a note underneath that read, “Do not turn off the switch—it controls the refrigerator.” That felt unusual. I opened the blinds for some natural light and found a lamp on a tilted desk. I adjusted it and turned it on, then turned on another lamp nearby.
That’s when we really saw the condition of the room: it looked extremely dingy and unclean. There was a strong smell of cigarette smoke, as if someone had just been in there. The carpet, walls, and ceiling were all visibly dirty. The A/C unit had actual footprints on it, along with a layer of dust and dirt.
In the bathroom, we found pubic hairs and cracked flooring—it was clearly not cleaned. At that point, I told my family we were leaving. We packed up immediately, went downstairs, and checked out.
This was an incredibly disappointing experience and not what we expected based on the listin
