Best WLM Reviews
I thought location was great - close to everything. Staff was friendly. I was happy that I received one of the remodeled rooms, but I was not very satisfied with the cleanliness of the room- rusty frig, linens were dirty -especially beds, towels and bathroom. There were black hairs on sheets, mattress pad, bathroom tub was gross-tub faucet was broken. Cigarette burns on tub. My daughter wouldn't even use the shower. we heard our screaming neighbors all morning like they were in our room. Not very likely I would stay again unless they clean it up. My stay could have repaired/replaced some things in that room. One room at a time could be a great hotel with better cleaning and bathrooms updated.
My stay was very unpleasant. The floors had a lot of chemicals and burned my feet. There was no toilet tissue, no nose tissue, I had a used half bar of soap on the bathroom counter. The sink and counter was very dirty. Hair and makeup present. Clearly never cleaned. I called the front desk to tell them my problem and they did not bring me anything. They told me I had to come get the items that I needed for my room. there was broken glass outside my door that I had to pick up because I had dogs and didn't want any accidents. The AC unit was very noisy and partially broken with exposed wires. The bathroom door did not want to shut. the shower head was broken and there was no pressure because of it. The linens did not smell good. The TV remote was broken. I could only adjust the volume but I could not change a channel. I was very disappointed to find out that they didn't have breakfast, which I understand they did advertise that they didn't so that was my fault but it was disappointing need none the less. The atmosphere at this location was not good. A lot of younger people partying, people smoking marijuana, girls arguing loudly on the phone with their spouses, and overall not a good atmosphere for a mother like myself with a 6 year old. I will never be staying here again and I'm only sorry I didn't read the reviews prior to booking. This place was frankly a dump and had little to no customer service. But overall it's the cleanliness or lack thereof that really upset me.
The hotel was not what I thought. I saw the pictures on your website before booking; however, when we got there the bathroom was extremely dirty, it had mold all over the tub and walls, it smelled like pee. The sheets didn't smell clean, if they were washed, they didn't use bleach, I could tell. I was very disappointed. I am not picky but we were willing to lose the 165 that we paid for that night and pay at another hotel; we couldn't because there was an event in town and all hotels were booked. Hope you can improve so you don't lose more customers. Good luck!
The location was great. Right off I75, close to mall and restaurants. The outside looks freshly painted. The pool appeared clean but I didn't get to use it. I had 2 rooms, 226 and 215. 215 had cat hair all over the chair. It smelled of cat urine. It appeared that the cat marked its territory by peeing on the wall. The beds had a sheet and one blanket. The blankets were dirty on all 4 beds. They had cigarette burns in them. It was supposedly in non smoking rooms with queen size beds. The box springs were dirty and torn. I was afraid to look at the mattresses. In room 226 there was a wad of hair on the floor that didn't match any of us. We killed 3 spiders and one cockroach. The floors were gritty in both rooms. Maid service consisted of someone came in and swapped the towels. No one made the beds swept or vacuumed. A homeless person slept in the laundry room at night and kept their sleeping bag there during the day. A man was selling drugs out of one room and hookers were hanging out on the corner of the hotel. We stayed 2 nights. We were attending a funeral and didn't have the funds to go elsewhere or we would have.
WOW really disappointed and here is why:
If you allow smokers you should never put them next to those that are non-smokers and you should have rooms that have never been smoked in.
Your rooms are being updated however you must have chosen the lowest bid contractor or your site manager is new and it shows. Is your goal to reduce costs, it seems like your taking short cuts because you ran out of money?
Things that are missing or needs improvement:
Proper Signage you can see
Access into the hotel
A simple breakfast
shampoo
Working phones
proper door locks and entry braces (at least fix the ones there)
equipment:
heaters that have been tested and don't smell
bath room fans fixed
refrigerators that work defrosting freezers might help.
Bug Exterminator, lots of bugs
TV's need to be updated and cable box fixed to work with remote
No Clocks??
Showers that work correctly when you pull the pin
Bath Drains that work
Bath rooms that are clean and not full of pubic hairs on the walls
The staff was nice and moved me twice to make things right, but failed.
Disappointed, next time I will just stay at the Marriott in the same location.
We were to stay at the location in Gainesville On Newberry Road. Our first room smelled horrible so the front desk moved us.. The second room was dirty and smelled as well. The sheets did not fit the bed, wool blankets that looked dingy, the carpet felt dirty and we just could not stay. The hotel grounds such as the stairs and walkways were filthy and it smelled disgusting. When I left the hotel I felt as if I would need a tetanus shot or something. The front desk clerk charged me twice instead of refunding my money when I refused to subject my family to the hotel. I finally was able to get a very nice lady.. Judy.. who was able to fix everything with my credit card. Ms. Judy is honestly the only reason why I rated your hotel the way I did. Your hotel is completely misrepresented online. The pictures we saw is not what we experienced by any means. I would not recommend your hotel to anyone!!
The way to get into the location is a little bizarre. Rooms were very clean, bedding was clean, no bugs were to be found anywhere. The fridge worked (which even more expensive motels/hotels fail in this category). The pool and pool area were very clean. The only gripe I can have about this place was the tub was a bit dated and worn, but the water pressure and temperature were perfect. I would definitely stay again. Super cheap without feeling like you're staying in a cheap location.
My stay in the Gainesville Motel 6 was less than pleasant. The desk staff were all nice, but that was really the only redeeming quality. In the greatest twist of irony, the Motel 6 light was out, so leaving the lights on seemed to not be part of the agenda. The room had numerous negatives: small, hand soap was only provided (no shampoo, conditioner, lotion, or even shower soap); the various surfaces in the bathroom and bedroom all had stains of numerous shapes, sizes, and colors; the non-smoking room smelled like smoke; there were chunks of tile missing from the shower; the water pressure was less than desirable; there were only three flat pillows provided for a king sized bed; holes in the comforter and sheets; only one channel worked on the tv (and the remote of course didn't work); no bugs, thankfully, besides the few gnats and spiders which hung out in the sink, etc. etc. More than that, the area where this hotel is located is more than sketchy, and we were worried our car was going to be broken into almost constantly.
