The bathroom area really needed cleaning, specially around the baseboards the handrails the shower. The shower curtain was too small and the shower rod should’ve been a curved rod because we were both handicap and it stuck to us constantly and those little squirt bottles that they have hanging on the walls that is totally ridiculous, and it smells horrible shampoo and conditioner and body wash. They could’ve least got something that smelt better. It smell like spoiled milk I had to go out and buy some thank God. I brought some Lysol wipes with me and I wiped the bathroom down. It was filthy not saying that the little girl didn’t clean it and the refrigerator had a big chunk of ice inside frozen in it.

This hotel is a bit dated, but it was convenient and comfortable. It's a traditional Hilton (nothing is included), but the beds are comfy, the room was fairly big, and the hotel has amenities (gym, etc.). Parking is also free.

We like to stay at this hotel because it it near UF. The rooms are a nice size. The staff are friendly and professional. This time we were a little disappointed in the cleanliness of our room. At some point prior to us checking in someone must have killed a roach on the cornice board and it was just left there to be looked at. The silver tray in the bathroom was dirty with hairs. The shower head dripped. The shower curtain was too short and did not close completely. I always bring my own shower products but for this trip I figured I would use the ones provided. However, once I was already in the shower and went to use the shower gel it was empty. More attention needs to be paid for the rooms to be cleaned.
