I would definitely stay here again. Nice size rooms, clean.
Only issue is that there was only one elevator, which does get slow during checkout times.

Great stay in Alachua.
Overall this facility exceeded our expectations. Firstly, everything was clean and orderly. Secondly, the employees were helpful and friendly. Lastly, we were able to bring our small dog and although pets are accepted, the facility does not have run down smell. The location is perfect with the Publix conveniently located next door.
