Meh Service and Accomodations
Hair in the bathtub and a tooth brush left in shower upon arrival. There was 2 hair pins on the floor next to the bed so the room was obviously not vacuumed prior to my arrival. I was told I could pay cash for my stay on my booking site. But where I attempted to do so, I was told that I could not put a room deposit on my credit card. I was informed that the deposit would have to be in cash because I was paying cash. There was no mention of this on the hotels.com site which is ridiculous. I called Best Western customer service was told that each independent operator can create their own check in rules and that they could do nothing about it. Last time I stay at a Best Western.

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.
