### Quality Inn Alachua - Gainesville Area

6/10 Okay

"The staff were great, very friendly. The room was fine, beds were comfortable however the shower and toilet area could use an upgrade. The price was fair for a one night rest. The breakfast was your choice of self serve waffles and something that I didn’t look at in a crockpot. We chose to go across the road to Waffle House. Overall, not a bad place but not the nicest. I definitely wouldn’t pay more than $100/night nor for multiple nights. "
