Red Roof Inn PLUS+ Gainesville

8/10 Good
"The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The drapes did not fit the window very well so the sun light flowed in much earlier than we wanted. The shower was due for replacement but the water pressure was good. Their AC and small refrigerator worked well. It was not fancy but it was what we needed."
