We have stayed at hotel Eleo numerous times and have loved it there. It’s safe and convenient for our needs. This is the first time though that the hotel wasnt clean and we stayed when it’s wasn’t a busy football weekend.

We never stayed at the property because your company screwed us over with the date change the date due to room being sold out, pushed us back one day. We immediately called to help us find another hotel. Your company did not help us did not give us a refund. We were not even in town for the day of that day so we wasted $346 because your company sucks once again. I will never use Expedia. You guys don’t care about your customers long time loyal customers you suck.

Very nice property overall. Nice staff. Very clean. We did not know that parking was valet only (which is free). We also did not understand why the water did not get hot in the room.

This is one of the nicest hotels to stay at in Gainesville and we enjoyed it. The hotel is quiet, clean, and friendly. The breakfast was beyond delicious. My husband and I ordered the cinnamon roll and the avocado toast and they were soooo good! The hotel has l'occitane brand creams, soaps, shampoos and conditioners and that was super luxe. They even have a sound machine in the room.
