Rooms are spacious with a full kitchen. Beds are comfortable. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Pool & hot tub are clean. There is an outdoor kitchen and a large fireplace, as well. Breakfast is plentiful with hot & cold offerings. Parking lot is large, we've stayed there twice in the past month and never had trouble finding a parking spot.

Nice pool. Decent beds. Kitchenette was a plus. Smelled a bit funny, may have been what someone before us cooked. Had some room spray.

If you are looking for a reliable, comfortable, and modern place to stay in Gainesville, Staybridge Suites Gainesville I-75 is a fantastic choice. After weighing a few different options in the area, Gemini actually suggested this stay, and it turned out to be a win on multiple fronts. It’s impressively competitive on pricing. In many cases, you get significantly more square footage and better amenities here for a lower rate than nearby name-brand competitors

The hot tub isn't open till 10pm. You have to use it only dawn to dusk. Sitting in a hot tub with the sun out in Florida isn't very comfortable... The service is lacking. You'll go days without room service. Otherwise, it's great! Love the vibe in the grill area.

We had an excellent stay at this very clean. well maintained property. Nice newish decor, well-designed suite with good climate control, comfortable bed, and an overall peaceful quiet vibe despite a busy weekend. Well above average breakfast with fresh fruit and berries, Greek yogurt, oatmeal and cottage cheese in addition to the standard offerings. Very happy with our lodging choice for a quick visit to Gainesville.
