Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

This is a very nice hotel. The only issue I had was the shuttle to the airport. Gainesville has almost no hotels with airport shuttle service, especially early in the morning. Before booking through Orbitz, I called the front desk of the hotel, and was assured that with 24 hours notice, I could be taken to the airport at 5:00 AM. I called as required, and was told their shuttle driver was "out of town". Although not clearly stated on the Orbitz website, I was told that the "free" shuttle service was not available for guests who book through a third party, such as Orbitz. They did, however, accommodate me by arranging for a taxi, but I had to pay the driver directly. They then reimbursed Orbitz, and I received a refund from Orbitz. A little bit of a hassle, but I was satisfied by their effort.

I stay at this hotel often because of my job location. The Gateway Grand is always clean, staff are friendly, rooms are spacious, and breakfast is delicious. I like that the Gator Den is onsite too.
