I was terribly disappointed, PIF before arrival for 9/6-9/8 for a wedding on 9/7 at 4pm. Due to rental car issues i didn't arrive until 10:30am on 9/7 to be told my room was canceled because i didn't check in at 4 on the 6th although i was paid in full until Sunday. Reluctantly asked to book another room and was told sure but you can't check in until 4pm and that's what time the wedding started i had to get hair and make up done by 2pm. I want offered any help at all....And no they weren't booked or full their was 4 cars in the parking lot...I was really hurt by this.. Had to drive another 14 miles out of way.. but thankfully i was able to find a room there with no problem at all.

I was a little skeptic of the location because of the distance from University but it was definitely worth the trip. So happy that the room was clean and spacious after a long day. The only thing bad was the cable did not work at the time.

Love this place! (It was our first time staying here.) BW Waldo is very clean & had a very nice scent in the building as soon as I walked in. The king suite we had was very affordable & roomy & i loved the bathroom! I was greeted with a smile & the front desk clerk was very friendly & helpful. The Dunkin Donuts and Pilot travel center wwre both in walking distance so that was definitely a plus! It also was only 25 minutes from Gainesville so we weren't far from the stadium for the game and so many other things.
