It's a simple, clean hotel. Nothing special, nothing bad. Good location, close to the campus but not walking distance. Bed was comfortable. Would stay again. Saturday night after the students had left for the summer so pretty quiet. Recommended if you just want to relax and sleep.

I am disabled and needed a ground floor room. I was given rm 106 and it was extremely damp and musty. The sheets on the made up bed felt damp to the touch. The only reason I stayed is because it was non refundable. I had to stay 2 nights and on the morning of checkout my eyes were swollen completely shut. My clothes and luggage smelled musty. They need to fix the mold and mildew asap.

When I walked into the room it smelled like must. This isn’t uncommon in old motels but it also the smell of bed bugs. Bed bugs secrete a pheromone that smells like a wet musty room which is exactly what you will wish it was if you end up with bed bugs. Upon telling the receptionist that room #106 had bed bugs and showing her the fresh welts on my skin. She told me, “no one else has complained, we will check it out later.” While I hope that she took me seriously it didn’t feel like she was planning on doing anything about it. I left itching, scratching and highly unsatisfied by the Gator Town Inn.

I so wanted to give this motel a good review because the lady at the check in desk was so nice, but once I opened the door to our room that good feeling went away. The room reeked of mildew and no amount of air cleaning was going to cover the smell. The carpet was horribly filthy with fingernail clippings and who knows what else. The bedside table was covered with stale beer and something else totally disgusting. The carpet next to the bed was also soaked in stale beer.

Does not look like the pictures. If you are on the first floor you will hear everything above you. Door to the outside did not have a deadbolt and very strong odor. Not sure what the smell was covering up. Would definitely not recommend as a solo traveler.

To make the reservation I had a very good impression, it was very professional, as well as the check-in, the room was smaller than expected, the cleanliness did not impress me, the mattress was very battered, the old sheets, the small, old and insufficient towels .It is a place that needs to update those services. It did not live up to the good comments. The pool is a corral, it doesn't have any extra space, the TV screen is old and small, even if it's a passing hotel, it could be more comfortable.
