Room did not have a guest chair of any kind and certainly not the loveseat pictured in the photos. Terrible shower design as the shower controls are on the wrong side. Instead of being able to reach in to start the shower without actually getting in, the door only opened on the far side and you have to get into the shower to turn it on. This means you get a blast of cold water all over yourself before you can escape waiting for the hot water. And if the hot water is too hot, you have to get in the shower again to adjust and possibly get scalded in the process. Totally stupid design that has a potential danger. The tv was the largest I’d seen in a hotel room.

Great location if you nee4d to be close to UF Medical or down town areas, and still be able to jump on highway for travel. The staff was especially kind, welcoming. The snack bar is great. Breakfast is a bit ordinary, but for5 the price its fine to be right across the street from First Watch. The bar restaurant has amazing food options. and delicious! Kudos to that chef!
