Top Duckpond Hotel Reviews

Sleep Inn & Suites University/Shands

10/10 Excellent

"This is our third fourth stay. We travel for medical appointments. Never disappointed. Clean and fairly priced. Breakfast buffet is very good."

Comfort Suites Gainesville near University

10/10 Excellent

"Room was big, clean, updated, has bigger fridge. Bathroom was very clean which is super important. Big closet with safe. Breakfast was sufficient and fresh. Love the waffle station and healthy fruit & yogurt options. Staffs were helpful and sweet. Parking was plentiful and location is very convenient to UF. I was skeptical since it’s not expensive but compared to those that costs more, this place was a way better place and deal."
