positive:
Well priced rooms
Most guests find the rooms at this hotel are well priced, considering what you get for your money. All guests enjoy value here but pet owners and those guests who are traveling with children often tend to save fairly significant sums thanks to the generous freebies.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Occasional issues with Wi-Fi
Guests occasionally mention that they found the Wi-Fi was too slow to be of any real use. These guests describe how web pages take forever to load on phones, sometimes commenting that they ended up choosing to use their own cell phone data plan instead.
negative:
Pet-friendly approach doesn't suit everyone
For guests traveling with dogs, La Quinta Inn & Suites Gainesville is undoubtedly a great choice. Unfortunately, the pet-friendly nature of this hotel doesn't suit everyone. Some guests were alarmed by the number of dogs and were unimpressed by the barking.
negative:
Some smoke smells
Although not every guest had a problem, one complaint that does crop up is that the hotel rooms smell of smoke. This problem is not limited to smoking rooms, either, although those guests who specifically requested a smoking room were sometimes equally surprised by the strong smell.
