The staff was nice enough and tried to be accomodating, but the hotel is old and musty. The carpet is dirty, the bedding is dirty, old and snagged, the blow dryer was broken and ready to catch on fire, the glass sliding door lock wouldn't latch, the restaurant supervisor had a very loud shouting match with the waiter where everyone... more

We booked a lake view suite a week prior to arrival, upon arrival we checked into the hotel - which appeared very old and apartment like... I entered my room to find a small 2 queen size bedroom.. when I called the front desk, I was told..." We didnt have your suite so we gave you the room you are... more

I saw on the website what looked like a very nice hotel from the pictures they have posted. And on Trip Advisor, lets be realistic, you are not going to please all the people all the time.... more

Inside the hallways were dirty, lights flickering very weird. The non-smoking room stunk really badly like cigarettes. The sheets, comforter and carpets were dirty. They charged my credit car and $2.66 even though I paid... more

I am a Lung Transplant recipient and go to Shands Hospital for check-ups on a regular basis. Sometimes a problem may arise and I have to go on the spur of the moment. I have no problems getting a room on short notice, I... more

The room was nice, Ok clean, nice deck, not a good view. The shower drained slowly, but when I informed the hotel, they promptly sent maintenance over and fixed it. There was free internet on a computer in the lobby, usage in 30 minute intervals if people were waiting. Generally, it was a very pleasant stay for the money. more

We were picking up a car in Gainesville and did a one-way rental with Avis. Since the Paramount Plaza was one of two drop-off places for Avis in Gainesville, I decided to book a room for the night as a matter of convenience. The Manager's Special on their website made it extremely attractive. After booking, I checked TripAdvisor reviews. After... more
