Hampton Inn Gainesville, Gainesville

From my stays so far, this is a typical HI. Which is a good thing. They have figured out how to do things right. The room was large and clean. They have wireless internet and loan bridges out from the front desk. I had no problem connecting the bridge and geting hooked up into the internet. It is located at the end of a dead end street, so there is very little traffic. It is right off the interstate, however except when I was outside I never did hear any noise. The bad planning part is the pool is on the side of the hotel closest to the interstate. Just a block or so down the road is a main street with many shopping and eating choices. Most of them are within walking distance, although they might not be real close and there is no sidewalk along the dead end road. The breakfast was typical HI. 3 kinds of coffee (decaf, regular, and robust), pastries, cereal, toast, bagels, yogurt, fruit, and 2 rotating hot items. The hot items include eggs, biscuits, sausage, gravy, waffle dunking strips, and ham. They also have a bag breakfast to go, which I tried once just to see. It includes water, breakfast bar, apple, and muffin. Good if you are in a hurry.
